Estimation of Cost Effi ciency without Cost Data
One of the advantages of estimating a conduct parameter game, compared with the Lerner index, is that the knowledge of cost shifters is suffi cient to get the “implied marginal cost”estimates. Stochastic frontier literature suffers from the same problem that it requires a detailed data set in order to estimate cost effi ciencies of the firms. This paper develops a model to estimate firm specifi...
متن کاملEstimation of Cost Effi ciency without Cost Data ∗
One of the advantages of conduct parameter games is that they enable estimation of market power without total cost data. In line with this, we develop a conduct parameter based model to estimate the firm specific “implied cost effi ciency”and conduct without using total cost data. We use our methodology to estimate the conducts and marginal cost effi ciencies of U.S. airlines.
متن کاملEstimation of cost efficiency for firms in different technologies using data envelopment analysis
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method for evaluating the relative efficiency of a set of firms in a production process. Estimation of cost efficiency is one of the branches of performance evaluation. Cost efficiency evaluates the ability of producing current output with minimum available cost. Now let's assume that there are several groups of firms that operate separately and have differe...
متن کاملCost Efficiency Measures In Data Envelopment Analysis With Nonhomogeneous DMUs
In the conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA), it is assumed that all decision making units (DMUs) using the same input and output measures, means that DMUs are homogeneous. In some settings, however, this usual assumption of DEA might be violated. A related problem is the problem of textit{missing} textit{data} where a DMU produces a certain output or consumes a certain input but the val...
متن کاملEstimation of cost efficiency of Australian universities
The purpose of this paper is to quantify the efficiency with which Australian universities utilise their teaching resources. The study estimates the cost efficiency of 36 universities over the period 1995-2002 using stochastic frontier analysis. The present study differs from previous cost and efficiency studies of Australian universities in two respects. First, it employs stochastic frontier a...
