In this paper, the model of foreign direct investment attraction into Iran’s Free Trade- Industrial Zones has been estimated on the basis of related theories and studies. The results of this study illustrate that inflation rate and domestic investment respectively have negative and positive effects on the attraction of foreign direct investment into those zones. For the success in absorbing foreign investment, the results of this paper also show that some policies other than mere liberalization policy of foreign capital inflow are necessary. If Iran successfully create a suitable economic atmosphere in order to motivate free domestic investors, both in the national economy and in the zones then Iran may manage to attract foreign investors. This study indicates that high inflation rate and low
attraction of domestic investments are implications of country risk, which lead to less attraction of foreign investments to the zones on the other hand, small amount of domestic capital in free zones in turn decreases the attraction of foreign direct investment into zones, as a consequent effect on foreign investment.

In this paper, we have studied the measurement and comparing productivity among corporate and private sectors in Ilam province. we have used some economic and statistic techniques for analyzing of data by making some indexes such as labor, material ,energy and capital productivity in physical and valuing terms of partial and total of output. These have calculated with SPSS software. Also we have calculated P-values and, F for indexes among sectors and companies. We expressed and analyzed from cross-section data to compute indexes.
The results show that there is a big difference between the productivity in economic sectors. It has been expectable consequence because economic sectors have different production functions also productivity among private and corporate has not been more different. So we can conclude that the corporate sector has been paid the same action as private sector, therefore government must pay attention to corporate sector much more than the past.
