Endogeneity in Stochastic Frontier Models
Stochastic frontier models are typically estimated by maximum likelihood (MLE) orcorrected ordinary least squares. The consistency of either estimator depends on exogeneity of the explanatory variables (inputs, in the production frontier setting). We will investigate the case that one or more of the inputs is endogenous, in the simultaneous equation sense of endogeneity. That is, we worry that ...
متن کاملTechnical Efficiency of Teaching Hospitals in Iran: The Use of Stochastic Frontier Analysis, 1999–2011
Background Hospitals are highly resource-dependent settings, which spend a large proportion of healthcare financial resources. The analysis of hospital efficiency can provide insight into how scarce resources are used to create health values. This study examines the Technical Efficiency (TE) of 12 teaching hospitals affiliated with Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) between 1999 and 2...
متن کاملTechnical and Economic Efficiency of Rice Production in the Kou Valley (burkina Faso): Stochastic Frontier Approach
The present paper seeks to deal with the issue of technical and economic efficiency of rice producers in the Kou valley, located in the region of the high basins in the western part of Burkina Faso. The stochastic frontier approach was used to estimate the production function, from a CobbDouglas stochastic frontier function and its dual which allow the estimation of the technical, allocative an...
متن کاملstochastic frontier model with distributional assumptions for rice production technical efficiency
efficiency in agricultural production is indicative of the efficiency level of farm households in their farming activities. farmers in developing countries do not make use of all the potential technological resources, thus making inefficient decisions in their agricultural activities. herein, technical efficiency in relation with the production of three types of rice crop (boro, aus and aman) w...
متن کاملMeasuring Technical Efficiency in the Stochastic Varying Coefficient Frontier Model
Due to the assumption that the best practice methods refer to each input separately instead of the whole set of inputs used by a firm, the benchmark technology as defined in the stochastic varying coefficient frontier model may be infeasible and theoretically improper whenever the maximum response coefficients are not coming from the same production unit. To overcome this problem we suggest an ...
