Import Demand for India: A Translog Cost Function Approach

Economic Development and Cultural Change, 1984
Most developing countries depend heavily on imported resources in the form of raw materials or supplemental capital to increase their per capita income. However, most of the conventional macromodels have neglected the factor input aspect of imports.

A Translog Cost Function Analysis of U.S. Agriculture: 1948-1999

2003
This study examines the implications of the short-run specification of the standard, static translog cost function along with the possible implications of non-stationarity by estimating a dynamic translog cost specification complete with dynamic share equations for the U.S. using an empirical approach developed by Urga and Walters (2003).

Airline Code-share Alliances and Costs: Imposing Concavity on Translog Cost Function Estimation

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2003
This paper provides an assessment of how airline code-share alliances affect the costs of the airline industry. It makes two contributions to the literature. First, it measures the effects of airline alliances by estimating a translog cost function using a panel dataset of 10 major U.S.-based airlines over 29 quarters. Secondly, it ensures concavity of

A Translog Cost Function for Urban Bus Transit

The Journal of Industrial Economics, 1981
SEVERAL authors-among them Fisher and Viton [8], Keeler et al. [i2], Pozdena [I 7], and Small [22, 23] have pointed out the apparent superiority of bus transit over other forms of mass transit. The conclusions of these analyses rest on the following framework: in a given transportation market structure, consider the full costs of providing a trip of ...

A TRANSLOG COST FUNCTION ANALYSIS OF U.S. AGRICULTURE: A DYNAMIC SPECIFICATION

2003
This study has used an empirical approach developed by Urga and Walters (2003) to examine the implications of the short-run specification of the standard translog cost specification along with the possible implications of non-stationarity. We have estimated a dynamic translog cost specification complete with dynamic share equations for U.S. agriculture

Interrelated factor demands for manufacturing: A dynamic translog cost function approach

European Economic Review, 1989
Abstract In this paper we report the results of estimating a joint model for labour, capital and energy using the transcendental logarithmic cost function of Christensen, Jorgenson and Lau (1973). This allows us to determine both the own price and cross elasticities of substitution between labour, capital and energy.
