The energy rebound effect in China's light industry: a translog cost function approach
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2016Abstract China is in its industrialization and urbanization development stage, which requires strong energy support. With the largest population in the world, the energy endowment of China is relatively small. Therefore, energy conservation is one of the key tools for China's sustainable development and energy security.

Non-linear technological progress and the substitutability of energy for capital: an application using the translog cost function. [PDF]
Economics Bulletin, 2008 This paper analyses the production process of four industries over four separate time periods using datasets taken form Berndt and Wood (1975, 1979), Hunt (1984a, 1986), Norsworthy and Harper (1981) and Jorgensen and Stiroh (2000). In their initial paper Berndt and Wood failed to explore the alternative options available to them to represent ...

Abstract This note supplies approximate variance formulas for the Allen Partial Elasticities of Substitution estimated with a three-input translog cost function. These formulas are based on a first-order Taylors series approximation to the true but unknown variances.

A translog cost function of the integrator business : a comparison between FedEx and UPS
2012Abstract: This paper intends to deeply analyse the cost structure of the integrated air freight business by means of a flexible functional form, namely the translog cost function. This analysis allows us to extend our knowledge on the supply side of the integrated air freight industry and the industrial economic relationships within the industry.

Rising Wage Inequality in India: a Translog Cost Function Analysis
2011The paper attempts to investigate the various determinants of rising wage inequality in India since 1980s. A translog cost function along with the share equations is used to evaluate the impact of various factors such as trade, technology, liberalization phase, efficiency (technical, allocative and cost) and inflation on rising wage inequality between ...

IMPORT DEMAND FOR THE UNITED STATES: A TRANSLOG COST FUNCTION ANALYSIS
This paper examines the role of imports as an alternative input to domestically supplied capital and labor in the U. S. economy for the period 1970-1993. We use the aggregate translog cost function, which permits us to obtain econometric measures of the pair-wise elasticities of substitution between inputs for each year, the annual own- and cross-priceopenaire +1 more source
