Abstract

R and D capital stock plays an important role in the economic growth accounting analysis. By using the perpetual inventory method of capital stock model, this paper estimated the R and D capital stock of 30 inland provinces and autonomous regions in our country from 2003 to 2013, and made comparative analysis on various regions. The results show that the R and D capital stock of our country is increasing during the period of this research. Regional development is unbalanced, rich-poor polarization is serious and the concentration is high; furthernore, the distribution presents ladder-like characteristic of chinese economic regions, diminishing from the eastern region to the northwest, the central region and the western region. From the growth rate, we can find the eastern region is still far ahead but the development of the northeast region is slow, while the central region is catching up with the eastern region and the western region is difficult to change its situation in the near future.
