The treatment of non-essential inputs in a Cobb-Douglas technology : an application to Mexican rural household-level data [PDF]
The standard approach for fitting a Cobb-Douglas production function to micro data with zero values is to replace those values with"sufficiently small"numbers to facilitate the logarithmic transformation.

Profit Maximization and the Threshold Price [PDF]
If the output market is perfectly competitive and the firm’s production function is not concave, an increase in the output price may lead to an explosive increase in firm’s profits at some point.

A New Class of Production Functions and an Argument Against Purely Labor-Augmenting Technical Change [PDF]
This paper follows Jones (2005) in his approach to deriving the global production function from microfoundations. His framework is generalized by allowing for dependence between the Pareto distributions of labor- and capital-augmenting developments ...

On the equilibrium in a discrete-time Lucas Model [PDF]
In this paper I study a discrete-time version of the Lucas model with the endogenous leisure but without physical capital. Under standard conditions I prove that the optimal human capital sequence is increasing.

Does observational equivalence always hold in hyperbolic discounting models? [PDF]
Observation equivalence holds in the hyperbolic discounting models such as Laibson (1996), Barro (1999), and Krusell et al (2002). We study a hyperbolic discounting model where the policy function cannot be replicated by a geometric discounting model ...

Using Non-parametric Methods in Econometric Production Analysis: An Application to Polish Family Farms [PDF]
Econometric estimation of production functions is one of the most common methods in applied economic production analysis. These studies usually apply parametric estimation techniques, which obligate the researcher to specify the functional form of the ...
