Structural FECM: Cointegration in large‐scale structural FAVAR models (replic...
Starting from the dynamic factor model for nonstationary data we derive the factor-augmented error correction model (FECM) and its moving-average representation. The latter is... -
Complementarities in automobile production (replication data)
The number of different car and light truck models produced in North America has increased enormously over the last decades. The data suggests that producing this increased... -
The role of environmental factors in growth accounting (replication data)
This paper explores a relatively new methodology, the directional distance function method, to analyse productivity growth. The method allows us to explicitly evaluate the role... -
Projection pursuit regression and disaggregate productivity effects: the case...
Productivity of blast furnaces in India is studied by disaggregating the production process and the utilization process. A dimension-reducing nonparametric approach-projection... -
Keynesian impulses versus Solow residuals: identifying sources of business cy...
We employ a neoclassical business-cycle model to study two sources of business-cycle fluctuations: marginal efficiency of investment shocks, and total factor productivity... -
Asymptotically perfect and relative convergence of productivity (replication ...
In this paper we examine the extent to which countries are converging in per capita productivity levels. We propose to use cluster analysis in order to allow for the endogenous... -
An analysis of technology, productivity, and regulatory distortion in the int...
The purpose of this paper is to provide the first comprehensive firm level analysis of cost structures and production in the interstate pipeline industry during the transition... -
The inconsistency of common scale estimators when output prices are unobserve...
This paper explores the inconsistency of common scale estimators when output is proxied by deflated sales, based on a common output deflator across firms. The problem arises... -
Measurement of total factor productivity growth and biases in technological c...
This study investigates productivity growth in broad-acre agriculture in Western Australia. Tornqvist indices of three output groups (crops, sheep products and other) and five...
