Abstract

Despite the fact that there are great disparities in factor endowments, -techniques employed in the manufacturing sector of underdeveloped labour -surplus countries are comparable to those of highly industrialized capital .abundant countries like the United States. A.R. Khan in his paper on capital intensities and factor use [13] concluded from an international comparison of factor intensities that Pakistani capital intensities are near the American level in a number of industries while in some cases they are even higher.
