k^{1/3} math ||= **Implied TFP** ||= **I/Y** ||= **K/Y** ||^  || (Notes: **Pop** is 2007 population in millions. **GDP/Pop** is 2007 per capita GDP in 2005 dollars using international prices. **y** is per capita GDP divided by US per capita GDP (i.e. normalized so that the US value is 1). **k^1/3** is capital per capita divided by the US value of capital per capita and then raised to the 1/3 power. **Implied TFP** is **y** divided by **k^1/3**. **I/Y** is the average savings rate from 1980-2007. **K/Y** is the 2007 capital-output ratio. **g** is the average growth rate from 1960-2007.
