ANALISIS RETURNS TO SCALE PRODUKSI TENUN LURIK DI KECAMATAN CAWAS, KABUPATEN KLATEN

An input-oriented radial measure for returns to scale aggregation.

In production theory, it is necessary to be capable of predicting the production func- tion’s long-run behaviors. Hereof, returns to scale is a helpful concept. Returns to scale describes the reaction of a production function to the proportionally scaling all its input variables. In this regard, Data envelopment analysis (DEA) provides a com- prehensive framework for returns to scale evaluation...

Returns to Scale in Networks

A study on directional returns to scale

This study investigates the directional return to scale of biological institutions in the China Science Academy. In the first stage, the input-output indicators provided including staff, budget of studies, SCI articles, high quality articles and graduate education, etc. In the second stage, the method proposed by Yang (2012) was used to analyse directional return to scale and directional conges...

Non-parametric tests of returns to scale

This paper discusses various statistics for testing hypotheses regarding returns to scale in the context of non-parametric models of technical efficiency. In addition, the paper presents bootstrap estimation procedures which yield appropriate critical values for the test statistics. Evidence on the true sizes and power of the various proposed tests is obtained from Monte-Carlo experiments. This...

Returns to scale in different DEA models

This paper discusses returns to scale (RTS) in data envelopment analysis (DEA) for each of the presently available types of models. The BCC and CCR models are treated in input oriented forms while the multiplicative model is treated in output oriented form. (This distinction is not pertinent for the additive model which simultaneously maximizes outputs and minimizes inputs in the sense of a vec...
