"Improving Capital Income Shares in the GTAP Data Base"
by van Leeuwen, Nico


Abstract
This paper aims to improve the value of capital income shares in the GTAP database. From the GTAP database 5, it appears that capital shares vary a lot over regions and sectors; they range from less than 10% till over 80%. Based on information from the OECD STAN database, we conclude that variation in capital incomes shares is less than suggested in the GTAP database. Moreover, accounting for income of self-employed substantially reduces capital income shares in some sectors.
