This report evaluates two weights that are being considered as input into a weighted estimator of hog and cattle inventories and the number of farms. The weight based on cropland acreage with a defini
We invent Implicit Marshallian demands, which combine desirable features of Hicksian and Marshallian demands. We propose and estimate the Exact Affine Stone Index (EASI) implicit Marshallian demand sy
We examine the Constant Variance to Mean Ratio (CVMR) assumption—a key condition to make PPML an efficient estimator—and propose Generalized Poisson-Pseudo Maximum Likelihood (G-PPML) as a complementa
Many applications in financial economics use data series with different starting or ending dates. This paper describes estimation methods, based on the generalized method of moments (GMM), which make
