We introduce a new method for conditioning out serially correlated unobserved shocks to
the production technology by building ideas first developed in Olley and Pakes (1996). Olley
and Pakes show how to use investment to control for correlation between input levels and ...

I develop a technique useful for obtaining more precise estimates of demand and supply
curves when constrained to market-level data. It augments the estimation routine with data
on the average characteristics of consumers that purchase different products. I apply the ...

This paper examines direct broadcast satellites (DBS) as a competitor to cable. We first
estimate a structural consumer level demand system for satellite, basic cable, premium
cable and local antenna using micro data on almost 30000 households in 317 markets, ...

Abstract. A key issue in the estimation of production functions is the correlation between
unobservable productivity shocks and input levels. Profit-maximizing firms respond to
positive productivity shocks by expanding output, which requires additional inputs. ...

This paper investigates two explanations for why industries might become more productive
over time. The first explanation, termed the real productivity case,'is one in which firms
become more productive and this leads to more productive industries. The second ...

We describe two methods for correcting an omitted variables problem in discrete choice
models: a fixed effects approach and a control function approach. The control function
approach is easier to implement and applicable in situations for which the fixed effects ...

Abstract Endogeneity arises for numerous reasons in models of consumer choice. It leads to
inconsistency with standard estimation methods that maintain independence between the
model's error and the included variables. The authors describe a control function ...

We define aggregate productivity growth as the change in aggregate final demand minus
the change in the aggregate cost of primary inputs. We show how to aggregate plant-level
data to this measure and how to use plant-level data to decompose our measure into ...
A growing body of empirical literature uses structurally-derived economic models to study
the nature of competition and to measure explicitly the economic impact of strategic policies.
While several approaches have been proposed, the discrete choice demand system has ...

The extensive empirical macro-and micro-level evidence on the impact of job security
provisions is largely inconclusive. We argue that the weak evidence is a consequence of the
weak power of statistics used, which is suggested by a dynamic theory of plant-level labor ...

We build up from the plant level an “aggregate (d)” Solow residual by estimating every US
manufacturing plant's contribution to the change in aggregate final demand between 1976
and 1996. Our framework uses the Petrin and Levinsohn (2010) definition of aggregate ...

We propose a new measure of allocative efficiency based on unrealized increases in
aggregate productivity growth. We show that the difference in the value of the marginal
product of an input and its marginal cost at any plant-the plant-input" gap"-is exactly equal ...

Abstract Unobserved factors in differentiated product models can generate bias in price
elasticities. We provide a set of assumptions under which pricing functions can be inverted
to obtain controls that condition on the problematic part of the demand error. Our approach ...

Under the null hypothesis of “exogenous” prices, we should not be able to locate any
variable that is correlated with the demand error. Under the alternative, with endogenous ...

We develop an estimator for the parameters of a utility function that has interactions between
