It was found that the average technical efficiency in the case of constant capacity reached about 81%, 92% and 98% for the three categories respectively. With regard to distributive efficiency, it was found that its average for the three tenure categories in case the return to capacity is stable, amounted to about 87%, 42% and 95%. While, it was in the case of a change in return to capacity is about 95%, 95% and 97% as for the economic efficiency, it was found that the average of the three categories in the first case amounted to about 74% 86% and 91% respectively, while in the case of a change in return to capacity amounted to about 96% ,94% and 95%. | ||
