Estimation of labour supply functions using panel data : a survey
This survey aims at providing the reader with a thread through the literature on the topic of panel econometrics of labour supply, reporting also on the evaluation of the data used in these studies, and summarizing their substantive results. It documents the present trend away from models that take advantage of panel data almost exclusively in order to control for unobserved heterogeneity, towa...
متن کاملState Dependent Utility
We propose a new approach to utilities in (state) complete markets that is consistent with state-dependent utilities. Full solutions of the optimal consumption and portfolio problem are obtained in a very general setting which includes several functional forms for utilities used in the current literature, and consider general restrictions on allowable wealths. As a secondary result, we obtain a...
متن کاملConstrained LAV State Estimation Using Penalty Functions
Inequality constraints are often needed in optimization problems in order to deal with uncertainty. This paper introduces a simple technique that allows enforcement of inequality constraints in `1 norm problems without any modi cations to existing programs. The solution of `1 norm problems is required, for example, in implementing LAV (Least Absolute Value) state estimators in electric power sy...
متن کاملEstimation of multi-state life table functions and their variability from complex survey data using the SPACE Program.
The multistate life table (MSLT) model is an important demographic method to document life cycle processes. In this paper, we present the SPACE (Stochastic Population Analysis for Complex Events) program to estimate MSLT functions and their sampling variability. It has several advantages over other programs, including the use of micro-simulation and the bootstrap method to estimate the variance...
متن کاملEstimation of Production Functions using Average Data
Agricultural economists rely on aggregated data at various levels depending on data availability and the econometric techniques employed. However, the implication of aggregation on economic relationships remains an open question. To examine the impact of aggregation on estimation, Monte Carlo techniques and data are employed on production practices. ADDITIONAL
