We use this framework to show that SBTC can bring about a less efficient use of labor as long as it does not come with higher skill premia and/or adjustment in the hired quantities of skilled and unskilled labor. Indeed, using country-sector information (38 countries, 25 sectors, 1995-2005), we find most of the average growth rate in the marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) between skilled and unskilled labor (32.3%) is driven by SBTC (36.1%), rather than factor accumulation (-3.9%), and the discrepancy between MRTS and relative wages (i.e., economic inefficiency) grows by 6%. Adjustment of labor quantities to relative wages would bring about output gains ranging from 13% to 18%; adjustment of wages to MPs would increase wage inequality from 0.76 to 0.82 (Gini index). Economic inefficiency is found to grow less in less skill-intensive sectors and when the labor market institutions are such that skilled workers have a relatively higher bargaining power and job reallocation is easier. Moreover, it decreases more in more inefficient country-sectors (i.e., convergence).
