Theory:
In econometrics ,the Cobb–Douglas production function is a particular functional form of
the production function widely used to represent the technological relationship between the
amounts of two or more inputs (particularly physical capital and labor) and the amount of output
that can be produced by those inputs.

In its most standard form for production of a single good with two factors, the function is
𝑌 = 𝐴𝐿𝛽 𝐾 𝛼 − −(1)
where:

• Y = total production (the real value of all goods produced in a year or 365.25 days)
• L =Labor input (person-hours worked in a year or 365.25 days)
• K = capital input (a measure of all machinery, equipment, and buildings; the value of
capital input divided by the price of capital)[
• A = Total Factor Productivity
• α and β are the output elasticities of capital and labor, respectively. These values are
constants determined by available technology.
• Taking logarithm of (1) we get
• LN(Y)=LN(A)+β*LN(L)+α*LN(K)
• Or Y1=A1+β*L1+α*K1
• Value of parameter A is obtained using A=antilog(A1).

Steps:
(1):Log transformation of variables :
• Transform→ Compute Variable→Target Variable:logY→Numerical Expression:LN(Y) →OK
• Transform→ Compute Variable→Target Variable:logL→Numerical Expression:LN(L) →OK
• Transform→ Compute Variable→Target Variable:logK→Numerical Expression:LN(K) →OK
(2)Applying Linear Regression
Analyze→Regression→Linear→Dependent :log Y →Independent:Log L and LogK→OK
