AB  - In the literature, comparisons between absolute levels of 
productivity in different industries occur frequently. This paper 
explores the meaning and possible significance of such measures. 
Prices must be used to permit the required comparison of the outputs 
of different industries. It is shown that base-year weights produce a 
valid measure of productivity growth but not of absolute productivity 
level. Current price weights do yield a valid index of absolute 
productivity but one that tends to be equal for all industries 
because of the general equilibrium mechanism that reallocates 
resources from low-productivity to high-productivity industries.
