DEA Cobb-Douglas frontier and cross-efficiency
The current paper examines the cross-efficiency concept in data envelopment analysis (DEA). While cross-efficiency has appeal as a peer evaluation approach, it is often the subject of criticism, due mainly to the use of DEA weights that are often non-unique. As a result, cross-efficiency scores are routinely viewed as arbitrary in that they depend on a particular set of optimal DEA weights gene...
متن کاملOptimal Consumption in a Stochastic Ramsey Model with Cobb-Douglas Production Function
A stochastic Ramsey model is studied with the Cobb-Douglas production function maximizing the expected discounted utility of consumption. We transformed the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation associated with the stochastic Ramsey model so as to transform the dimension of the state space by changing the variables. By the viscosity solution method, we established the existence of viscosity so...
متن کاملOptimal Consumption in a Growth Model with the Cobb--Douglas Production Function
An optimal consumption problem is studied in a growth model for the Cobb-Douglas production function in a finite horizon. The problem is transfered into a stochastic Ramsey problem so as to reduce the dimension of the state space. The corresponding state equation is a stochastic differential ∗The second author is supported in part by a start-up fund at University of Oxford, and RGC Earmarked Gr...
متن کاملSimple Microfoundations for Cobb-Douglas Matching Functions
This paper derives a Cobb-Douglas matching function as the aggregate of the number of matches made by each firm in a large economy using results from the theory of heavy tail distributions. The model is then calibrated using the empirical distribution of firm sizes and stylized facts about social networks.The implied elasticity of the matching function is found to be close to those reported by ...
متن کاملAn optimal investment, consumption, leisure, and voluntary retirement problem with Cobb-Douglas utility: Dynamic programming approaches
We consider an optimal consumption, leisure, investment, and voluntary retirement problem for an agent with a Cobb–Douglas utility function. Using dynamic programming, we derive closed form solutions for the value function and optimal strategies for consumption, leisure, investment, and retirement.
