A rational rank four demand system (replication data)
Past parametric tests of demand system rank employed polynomial Engel curve systems. However, by Gorman's (1981) theorem, the maximum possible rank of a utility-derived... -
Individual heterogeneity and censoring in panel data estimates of tobacco exp...
A panel of households is used to test the rational addiction model of Becker et al. (1994). These data raise problems of measurement errors, censoring, and unobservable... -
Long-range dependence in Spanish political opinion poll series (replication d...
This paper investigates the time series properties of partisanship for five political parties in Spain. It is found that pure fractional processes with a degree of integration,... -
Time-varying intercepts and equilibrium analysis: an extension of the dynamic...
Demographic effects and user costs in demand systems have usually been modelled explicitly. A more robust approach is a state space formulation of the demand system, where... -
Asymmetry in first-price auctions with affiliated private values (replication...
Collusion and heterogeneity across firms may introduce asymmetry in bidding games. A major difficulty in asymmetric auctions is that the Bayesian Nash equilibrium strategies are... -
Stochastic frontier models with random coefficients (replication data)
The paper proposes a stochastic frontier model with random coefficients to separate technical inefficiency from technological differences across firms, and free the frontier... -
Using R to teach econometrics (replication data)
R, an open-source programming environment for data analysis and graphics, has in only a decade grown to become a de-facto standard for statistical analysis against which many... -
Evaluating asset-pricing models using the Hansen-Jagannathan bound: a Monte C...
We use recent statistical tests, based on a distance between the model and the Hansen-Jagannathan bound, to compute the rejection rates of true models. For asset-pricing models... -
Modelling the trend and seasonals within an AIDS model of the demand for alco...
The argument that is put forward in this paper is that failure to represent stochastic trend and stochastic seasonality in an AIDS model leads to a misspecified and possibly... -
Quantifying the uncertainty about the half-life of deviations from PPP (repli...
We propose a Bayesian framework in which the uncertainty about the half-life of deviations from purchasing power parity can be quantified. Based on the responses to a survey... -
The effect of physician advice on alcohol consumption: count regression with ...
Although there are encouraging trends, alcohol abuse continues to be a significant public health problem. Econometric studies of alcohol demand have yielded a great deal of... -
Testing of seasonal fractional integration in UK and Japanese consumption and...
The seasonal structure of quarterly UK and Japanese consumption and income is examined by means of fractionally based tests proposed by Robinson (1994). These series were... -
Modelling the conditional volatility of commodity index futures as a regime s...
Commodity index futures offer a versatile tool for gaining different forms of exposure to commodity markets. Volatility is a critical input in many of these applications. This... -
Autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity in commodity spot prices (repli...
Muth's (1961) rational expectations model of commodity markets implies that inventory carryover creates ARCH processes in prices. The model also indicates that the expected... -
Scale economies in electricity distribution: a semiparametric analysis (repli...
We estimate the costs of distributing electricity using data on municipal electric utilities in Ontario, Canada for the period 1993-5. The data reveal substantial evidence of... -

Real exchange rate behaviour: evidence from black markets (replication data)
The behaviour of real exchange rates (relative to the US dollar) is examined using monthly data obtained from the black markets for foreign exchange of eight Asian developing... -
An empirical analysis of alternative parametric ARCH models (replication data)
This paper presents empirical evidence on the effectiveness of eight different parametric ARCH models in describing daily stock returns. Twenty-seven years of UK daily data on a... -
Stochastic volatility models: conditional normality versus heavy-tailed distr...
Most of the empirical applications of the stochastic volatility (SV) model are based on the assumption that the conditional distribution of returns, given the latent volatility... -
Estimating the LQAC model with I(2) variables (replication data)
This paper derives a method for estimating and testing the Linear Quadratic Adjustment Cost (LQAC) model when the target variable and some of the forcing variables follow I(2)...
