'''Public capital''' refers to the aggregate body of government-owned assets that are used as the means for private productivity.<ref name="Why is Infrastructure important?">Aschauer, D. A. (1990). Why is infrastructure important? Conference Series [Proceedings]. Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. Pp. 21-68. </ref> Such assets span a wide range including: large components such as [[highways]], [[airports]], [[roads]], [[transit system]]s, and [[railways]]; local, municipal components such as [[public education]], [[hospital\|public hospitals]], [[police]] and [[fire protection]], [[prisons]], and [[courts]]; and critical components including [[Water supply network\|water]] and [[Sewage collection and disposal\|sewer systems]], [[Electric utility\|public electric]] and [[Public utility\|gas utilities]], and [[telecommunications]].<ref name="Public Capital Formation">Tatam, J. A. (1993). The Spurious Effect of Public Capital Formation on Private Sector Productivity. Policy Studies Journal, Vol. 21. </ref> Often, public capital is defined as government outlay, in terms of money, and as physical stock, in terms of infrastructure.

			One of the most classic [[macroeconomic]] inquiries is the effect of public capital investment on [[economic growth]]. While many analysts debate the magnitude, evidence has shown a statistically significant positive relationship between infrastructure investment and economic performance.<ref name="Why is Infrastructure important?"/> [[Federal Reserve]] Economist David Alan Aschauer asserted an increase of the public capital stock by 1% would result in an increase of the total factor productivity by 0.4%.<ref name="Public Capital and Economic Growth">Haan, J., Romp, W., and Sturum, J.E. (2007). Public Capital and Economic Growth. World Bank, Preliminary Paper.</ref> Aschauer argues that the [[Post–World War II economic expansion\|golden age of the 1950s and 1960s]] were partly due to the post-[[WWII]] substantial investment in [[critical infrastructure\|core infrastructure]] (highways, mass transit, airports, water systems, electric/gas facilities). Conversely, the drop of U.S. productivity growth in [[1973–75 recession\|the 1970s]] and [[Early 1980s recession in the United States\|1980s]] was in response to the decrease of continual public capital investment and not the decline of technological innovation.

			Given this relationship of public capital and productivity, public capital becomes a third input in the standard, [[Neoclassical economics\|neoclassical]] [[production function]]:

			:''Y''<sub>''t''</sub> represents real aggregate output of goods and services of the private sector
			:''A''<sub>''t''</sub> represents productivity factor or Hicks-Neutral technical change
			:''N''<sub>''t''</sub> represents aggregate employment of labor services
			:''K''<sub>''t''</sub> represents aggregate stock of nonresidential capital
			:''G''<sub>''t''</sub> represents flow of public capital stock (assuming services of public capital are proportional to public capital) <ref> Aschauer, D. A. (1989). Is Public Expenditure Productive? Journal of Monetary Economics, Vol. 23. Pp. 177-200. </ref>

			In this form, public capital has a direct influence on productivity as a third variable. Additionally, public capital has an indirect influence on [[multifactor productivity]] as it affects the other two inputs of labor and private capital.
