摘要

小企业可以为创造就业机会和总收入做出贡献。然而，小公司是不稳定的，其中只有一小部分可以转型为大公司，创造高薪工作。企业家们为转型自我选择。本研究考察了企业家自我选择的模式。企业家自我选择的主要决定因素是企业家的能力分布和商业环境，代表劳动者的技能分布和社会资本的技能分布。本研究预测，企业规模分布随企业家自我选择而截断，营商环境越好，企业总收入越大。本研究对企业规模分布的文献有贡献。

Entrepreneurs, Managers, and the Firm Size Distribution

ABSTRACT Small firms can contribute to job creation and aggregate income. However, small firms are volatile and only a fraction of those can transition into larger firms, which create high-paying jobs. Entrepreneurs self-select for the transition. This study examines the pattern of entrepreneur self-selection. The main determinants of the self-selection are ability distribution of entrepreneurs and business environment, which represents skill distribution of laborers and social capital. This study predicts that firm-size distribution is truncated with the entrepreneur self-selection and aggregate income is larger when the business environment is better. This study contributes to the literature on firm-size distribution.

期刊介绍： International Economic Journal is a peer-reviewed, scholarly journal devoted to publishing high-quality papers and sharing original economics research worldwide. We invite theoretical and empirical papers in the broadly-defined development and international economics areas. Papers in other sub-disciplines of economics (e.g., labor, public, money, macro, industrial organizations, health, environment and history) are also welcome if they contain international or cross-national dimensions in their scope and/or implications.
