Measuring Capital and Technology: An Expanded Framework
Abstract
This chapter provides guidance on what components of business spending should be included in measures of capital investment. It presents a model that defines capital investment as any outlay that is intended to increase future rather than current consumption should be treated as investment. This chapter explains that a significant portion of investment in traditional equipment and structures is excluded from the existing investment figures in U.S. national income and product accounts (NIPAs) and suggests that a move to recognize intangible capital might alter our understanding of the factors determining economic growth.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
