Measuring dynamic inefficiency in the presence of corporate social responsibility and input indivisibilities

作者:

Highlights:

• A model for inefficiency evaluation including firms’ CSR activities is proposed.

• A model builds on the dynamic by-production model accounting for adjustment costs.

• A model allows for non-convexities of the production set and input indivisibility.

• An evidence for non-convexity and inputs’ indivisibility is found.

• A considerable inefficiency in socially responsible outputs is revealed.
