Researching the estimation of production and cost functions, as well as the measurement and analysis of productivity—whether at the macroeconomic level or within specific sectors such as industry—and studies on economic growth all require access to reliable capital stock data. Clearly, the lack of available statistics and information on capital stock across economic sectors and activities poses significant limitations for applied research. Consequently, this shortcoming presents a serious challenge for economic policymakers in making accurate and informed decisions.

The findings of this study can be utilized by researchers, relevant research institutions, and key governmental and executive bodies such as the Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade; the Presidential Administration of Iran; the Economic Commission of the Government; the Plan and Budget Organization of the Islamic Republic of Iran (PBO); and Iran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture.
