Growth and inflation: Estimation of threshold point for Nepal

The Threshold Impact of Fiscal and Monetary Policies on Inflation: Threshold Model Approach

The aim of this study is to examine the nonlinear effects of fiscal and monetary policies on inflation during 1990:3 to 2013:1 based on threshold model. First lag of the liquidity growth is recognized as threshold variable with threshold value estimated at 6.37 percent. In low liquidity growth, the results indicate that inflation expectations and the lagged liquidity growth are the most importa...

Inflation and Economic Growth: Threshold Effects and Transmission Mechanisms

Comparison of One-point and Two-point Methods for Estimation of Infiltration Parameters in Furrow Irrigation

Infiltration is one of the most important hydraulic parameters affecting surface irrigation and one ofthe most difficult parameters in practical field determinations. The infiltration equations are used todescribe water flow hydraulics and surface irrigation systems design. But determination of theparameters in these equations are costly and time consuming. Therefore, some estimating methods ar...

Point and Interval Estimation for the Burr Type III Distribution

In this paper, we study the estimation problems for the Burr type III distribution based on a complete sample. The maximum likelihood method is used to derive the point estimators of the parameter. An exact confidence interval and an exact joint confidence region for the parameters are constructed. Two numerical examples with real data set and simulated data, are presented to illustrate the met...

Estimation of Potential Evapotranspiration and Crop Coefficient of Wheat at Rupandehi District of Nepal

This study is carried out to estimate the potential evapotranspiration (PET) and crop coefficient (Kc) for Wheat, BL 3235 variety. A lysimeter is installed to estimate PET at the experimental farm of Agricultural Research Center of Bhairahawa, which is located in western part of Nepal. The Blaney-Criddle formula is used to estimate the Kc for wheat. The estimated values of PET and Kc for wheat ...
