evaluating break point of paddy farms through cost function approach

abstract present study used translog cost function for determining break point of paddy farms. requested data set include inputs’ prices and quantities, and production amounts had been acquired from 500 rice farmers of guilan province at 2009. model used in this study is seemingly unrelated regressions (sur). the results showed that labor and pesticides had the highest and lowest share of produ...

Unit Root Tests for Time Series with a Structural Break When the Break Point Is Known

Unit root tests for time series with level shifts are considered. The level shift is assumed to occur at a known time point. In contrast to some other proposals the level shift is modeled as part of the intercept term of the stationary component of the data generation process which is separated from the unit root component. In this framework simple shift functions result in a smooth transition ...

One Break Point Is Enough: Traction Power Simulation in Portland

raction power computer simulation software has changed in the last 20 years. The tool has evolved from simpler, DOS-based, energy management software to detailed, Windowsbased, user friendly, analytical software that can accurately model train performance, predict train voltages, and produce a train voltage profile for an entire rail system. Traction power computer simulation software is now us...

Break point of serum creatine kinase release after endurance exercise.

We investigated whether there is a break point of creatine kinase (CK) release after daily endurance exercise and whether CK response depends on individual physical characteristics. Fifteen healthy young men performed 90 min of bicycle exercise for 3 consecutive days. Body composition, properties of the quadriceps femoris muscle (QFM), and aerobic and anaerobic capacities were estimated before ...
