Abstract

[eng] Returns of scale distribution in manufacturing : an illustration based on a panel of more than 700 french firms. . The aim of this study is to attempt to estimate, using as a dasis a panel of more than 700 French manufacturing firms covered over the period from 1981 to 1987, returns of scale distribution between firms. The first part relates the results obtained from econometric experimentation which enables, using a system of production factor demand, to assess the parameter for each sample firm. The second part attempts to determine the true diversity of returns of scale between firms and to look for the determining explanatory factors. [fre] La distribution des rendements d'échelle dans l'industrie. Une illustration à partir d'un panel de plus de 700 entreprises françaises. . L'objet de cet article est de tenter d'estimer, à partir d'un panel de plus de 700 entreprises industrielles françaises suivies de 1981 à 1987, la distribution inter-entreprise des rendements d'échelle. La première partie rapporte les résultats de l'expérimentation économétrique ayant permis, à partir d'un système de demande de facteurs de production, d'évaluer ce paramètre pour chaque entreprise de l'échantillon. La seconde partie tente de mieux cerner la réalité de la dispersion inter-entreprise des rendements d'échelle et d'en rechercher les facteurs explicatifs.
