Aggregation and aggregation biases in production functions : a panel data analysis of translog models [PDF]
Abstract: An applied econometric study of aggregation, based on an unbalanced panel data set for manu-facturing plants is presented. Panel data are informative in examining aggregation of variables, parameters, and relationships empirically since they (i) allow estimation at both the micro and the macro level, and (ii) enable comparison of the time ...

Is the Production Function Translog or CES? An Empirical Illustration Using UK Data [PDF]
Computable general equilibrium (CGE) studies are increasingly interested in informing keys parameters of their models using empirical data. Energy and environmental CGE findings have been found to be particularly sensible to changes in the values of the elasticities of substitution between inputs of production.
