Firm Size?Market Competition And Total Factor Productivity Of Military Enterprises

At present,China's military enterprises are faced with the situation of internal and external challenges.First of all,the international market competition is fierce,the United States and other military industrial powers still perform well,Turkey and India and other emerging countries,China's military enterprises in the international market share is still very small.Secondly,civil-military integration has entered the deep water of reform,and the exploration of internal scale and external competition environment has become the two main lines of reform.However,domestic military enterprises have problems such as unreasonable scale,low level of market competition and slow growth of total factor productivity.It is in consideration of such a situation that the scale,competitive level and total factor productivity efficiency of military industrial enterprises are studied.Through a lot of reading literature,this paper summarized about the enterprise scale and market competitive research results of the impact of total factor productivity,further on the basis of relevant theoretical analysis of mechanism,the influence of among the three found enterprise scale through innovation,resource allocation efficiency,and cost control ability affect the total factor productivity;Market competition affects TFP through pricing power,transaction cost and resource availability.As a moderating variable,the change of external competition level has a corresponding moderating effect on the path of internal scale acting on productivity.And select the database and military industrial enterprises business listings matching the 1998-2007,a total of 6592 observations,1110 companies,has carried on the simple descriptive statistical analysis,and then empirically the enterprise scale and total factor productivity,market competition and the relationship between total factor productivity,as well as the market competition of enterprise scale and what kind of adjustment effect between total factor productivity.The results show that there is an inverted u-shaped relationship between the size of military industrial enterprises and total factor productivity,that is,with the increase of enterprise size,total factor productivity increases first and then decreases;it is not that the larger the enterprise size,the better.There is a negative relationship between market competition and total factor productivity,that is,with the increase of market concentration,total factor productivity declines.Market competition has a negative regulating effect on enterprise scale and total factor productivity.With the increase of industry concentration,the negative effect of enterprise scale on total factor productivity increases.At last,the paper puts forward five Suggestions for the conclusion.Second,speed up the identification and separation of primary and secondary business;Then,promote the marketization of the procurement of weapons and equipment;In addition,the mixed ownership reform of military enterprises should be strengthened.Finally,create an environment that encourages innovation.
