An empirical model of asset replacement in dairy production (replication data)
Throughout the US dairy farm industry, observed rates of dairy cow replacement consistently exceed the rates prescribed as optimal by dairy economists. We attempt to uncover the... -
Analysing incomplete individual employment histories using indirect inference...
In this paper we apply the Indirect Inference method to estimate the parameters of a semi-Markov transition model when the data are subject to a complex form of censoring. There... -
Estimation of equilibrium wage distributions with heterogeneity (replication ...
Equilibrium search models generalize the one-sided models used earlier by endogenizing the wage offer distribution. Attempts to estimate versions of these equilibrium n search... -
Cyclical output, cyclical unemployment, and Okun's coefficient: A new approac...
Estimates of Okun's coefficient are obtained using new estimates of cyclical GNP and cyclical unemployment rates for the post-war USA. Empirical estimates of the coefficient are... -
A class of binary response models for grouped duration data (replication data)
This paper explores the relationship between conventional models for binary response such as the probit and logit, and the proportional hazard (PH) and related specifications... -
Japan's financial deregulation and linkage of the Gensaki and Euroyen deposit...
This paper examines whether Japan's financial deregulation weakened the linkage between the Euroyen and Gensaki markets. It defines and analyses the linkage of the two markets... -
Forecasting exchange rates using feedforward and recurrent neural networks (r...
In this paper we investigate the out-of-sample forecasting ability of feedforward and recurrent neural networks based on empirical foreign exchange rate data. A two-step... -
Modelling market fundamentals: A model of the aluminium market (replication d...
The standard approach to modelling primary commodity markets under rational expectations is to relate the commodity price to the production and consumption surprises (i.e. the... -
The structure of technology in Brazilian sugarcane production, 1975–87: An ap...
Sugarcane-based ethanol has become a primary automotive fuel in Brazil over the past 15 years. Because sugarcane costs are over two-thirds of the costs of ethanol production,... -
Institutional hypothesis of the long-run income velocity of money and paramet...
It has recently been argued that when the conventional specification of M2 income velocity is extended to include proxies for two types of institutional change, as emphasized by... -
Maximum likelihood estimation of a GARCH-stable model (replication data)
Maximum likelihood is used to estimate a generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic (GARCH) process where the residuals have a conditional stable distribution... -
Heterogeneity biases, distributional effects, and aggregate consumption: An e...
Using stratified microdata from the Canadian FAMEX (78-86) surveys, this paper investigates whether observed heterogeneity in marginal propensities to consume across strata... -
Testing for homogeneity in demand systems when the regressors are nonstationa...
An implication of optimizing theory is that demand functions are homogeneous of degree zero in prices and nominal income. Evidence based on estimations of demand systems has... -
Forecasting in cointegrated systems (replication data)
We consider the implications for forecast accuracy of imposing unit roots and cointegrating restrictions in linear systems of I(1) variables in levels, differences, and... -
Efficiency in the provision of university teaching and research: An empirical...
A flexible three-output, two-input cost function model is used to examine the cost efficiency of UK universities as producers of teaching and research outputs. Unlike previous... -
Nonnegativity constraints and intratemporal uncertainty in a multi-good life-...
In the standard multi-good life-cycle consumption model (with intertemporal additive utility) the intratemporal relations between the marginal utilities of the different goods...
