  • The value of R2 suggests that 77% of the variation in economic performance explain by oil export and non-oil export

  • The values of t-statistics show that two explanatory variables have impact but these variables are insignificant as reported in Figures 2 and 3 below: the study uses non-linear form for above equation

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Development is not purely an economic phenomenon. In an ultimate sense, it must encompass more than the material and financial side of people’s lives, to expand human freedom. In addition to improvements in incomes and output, it typically involves radical changes in institutional, social, and administrative structures as well as in popular attitudes and even customs and beliefs (Todaro and Smith 2011) They argued that an important shortcoming of new growth theory is that it remains dependent on number of traditional neoclassical assumption that are often inappropriate for developing economies. Exports represent the value of what is sold of goods and services between a country and the rest of the world to achieve an increase in national income These exports play an important role in the process of development and economic growth for both developing and developed countries. The conclusion and policy implication put in the end of the paper
