| Abstract: | This paper documents the relationship between capital intensity, the use of advanced manufacturing technology, growth rates, and exit probabilities for a sample of U.S. manufacturing plants. It utilizes data from a unique establishment survey of technology usage that allows the authors to control for both the quantity and heterogeneity of capital in the plant. The main findings are that capital-intensive plants and plants employing advanced technology have higher growth rates and are less likely to fail. |
