Abstract

This paper examines the process through which biproportional technical progress affects vintage capital requirement matrices, according to which an optimal scrapping age for capital equipment can be proven to exist by means of a separation theorem for convex sets. Also, it is shown that optimal capital depletion depends on the column totals of the capital matrix in biproportional technical change.
