This research reviews the Grease the Wheels (GTW) and Sand the Wheels (STW) hypotheses and the effects of corruption on innovation and economic growth. The study used principal component analysis methodologies and structural equation modeling. Employing the former, it is concluded that both hypotheses could be fulfilled, but only for some of the country's federal states. Meanwhile, in the case of structural equations, it is concluded that corruption facilitates innovative activity and economic growth (GTW). This has implications since it is shown that higher budgets for science and technology do not necessarily lead to better results in this field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of the article is to analyze the effect of technological progress on the profit rate in the manufacturing industry in Mexico and by groups of low, medium, and high technology branches. A model of two technological sectors is developed and it is determined that the labor share in the product and technological progress affect the rate of profit. A panel data model is used to estimate the effects on profitability. With information from the 2004-2019 Economic Censuses, in general, for the industry in Mexico, it is shown that technological progress increased the rate of profit, while the effect of the skill premium had a negative impact. By technology groups, it is observed that low technology branches tend to substitute skill labor for capital, which increases profits, while in high technology, there is no evidence that capital and skills are complementary factors. In conclusion, in industry, the capital-skilled labor ratio has been increasing, however, there is a greater intensification of unskilled work complementary to fixed capital, which increases the rate of profit.

The intense use of new technology, the risk that this imply and the business opportunity generated by this technology, has given place to the concept of Technology Based Firm (TBF), which has been a research object due to its generation of added value. Nowdays there isn't a clear definition of a technology based sector, therefore this research proposes its own description, making a comparison of the production and added value of Sinaloa against the national level. It is used a quantitative methodology using statistical information from the databases of the North America Industrial Classification System contained in the Economic Census 2004 and 2009.
