Labour's shares and profitability crisis in the US: recent experience and post-war trends
扩展了Weisskopf关于美国利润率的研究，发现1980年代初利润率的持续下行压力源于产能利用率，而非劳动份额上升；战后劳动份额上升主要由附加福利增加和非生产性劳动成本推动，而生产工人工资份额长期下降。
Extends work on U.S. rate of profit by T. E. Weisskopf (1979). Firstly the author finds, by extending Weisskopf's data into the early 1980s, that continued downward pressure on profitability i s explained by capacity utilization, in contrast to Weisskopf's explanation of rising labor share. Secondly, it is found that ri sing labor share in the post-War period is largely composed of r ising levels of supplemental fringe benefits and is, in the earl y part of the period, also explained by rising nonproduction lab or costs. Production worker wage share falls secularly and this may be explained, particularly in the 1960s, by rising price mar k-ups on direct cost. Copyright 1987 by Oxford University Press.
