An input-oriented radial measure for returns to scale aggregation.
In production theory, it is necessary to be capable of predicting the production func- tion’s long-run behaviors. Hereof, returns to scale is a helpful concept. Returns to scale describes the reaction of a production function to the proportionally scaling all its input variables. In this regard, Data envelopment analysis (DEA) provides a com- prehensive framework for returns to scale evaluation...

متن کاملForecasting real estate returns using financial spreads
This paper examines the predictability of real estate asset returns using a number of time series techniques. A vector autoregressive model, which incorporates financial spreads, is able to improve upon the out of sample forecasting performance of univariate time series models at a short forecasting horizon. However, as the forecasting horizon increases, the explanatory power of such models is ...
متن کاملModeling Financial Security Returns Using Lévy Processes
Lévy processes can capture the behaviors of return innovations on a full range of financial securities. Applying stochastic time changes to the Lévy processes randomizes the clock on which the processes run, thus generating stochastic volatilities and stochastic higher return moments. Therefore, with appropriate choices of Lévy processes and stochastic time changes, we can capture the return dy...
متن کاملA new factorial decomposition for the atkinson measure
In this article we explore an alternative factorial decomposition for Atkinson indices and taking Sala−i−Martin’s (2002) article “The Disturbing 'Rise' of Global Income Inequality” as a reference, the possibilities of Atkinson indices are shown in regard to completing and detailing information in studies of inequality among populations and populations subgroups. The results which appear in this...
