Further, assuming that the U.S., Japan and the "rest of the world" (for which no data are available) each account for one third of the world semiconductor production, we can derive a rough estimate for worldwide emissions of PFCs from the global semiconductor industry.
Further, assuming that the effort cost of higher quality managers is smaller (so that their benefit from shirking is smaller), then, for a given level of firm innovativeness, the higher the quality of a firm's top management, the smaller will be the number of ATPs included in its corporate charter under the management entrenchment hypothesis.
