Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to determine some characteristics of the production system of the Moroccan economy for a single product (GDP) with annual data from 1999 to 2019. Then, we try to estimate the TFP from a translog production function to compare it with that corresponding to a Cobb-Douglas production function, if possible. The results obtained show the difficulties encountered in these estimations, particularly the multicollinearity between the explanatory variables.
