提出组织资本作为企业积累信息的资产,解释企业为何存在,并说明调整组织资本的成本如何约束企业增长率,从而解释企业成长和规模分布的特征。

Abstract

The manner in which information is accumulated in the firm offers an explanation for the firm's existence. Information is an asset to the firm, for it affects the production possibility set and is produced jointly with output. We call this asset of the firm its organization capital. The costs of adjusting the stock of organization capital induce the firm to constrain its growth rate, thus explaining certain facts about firm growth and size distribution. Adjustment costs arise endogenously rather than being assumed.
