Measuring and decomposing capital stock and service values : should capital quality be given a place?
Biørn, Erik (Discussion Papers;No. 518, Working paper, 2007)Abstract: Aggregation of tangible capital assets across vintages and decomposition of value aggregates into quantities and prices are considered. Focus is on both capital stock values and capital service values. If the ... -
Micro data on capital inputs: attempts to reconcile stock and flow information
Biørn, Erik; Lindquist, Kjersti-Gro; Skjerpen, Terje (Discussion Papers;No. 268, Working paper, 1999)We evaluate consequences of some important assumptions ofthe perpetual inventory method of capital stock calculation under geometric depreciation. The data are plant-level panel data from the Norwegian manufacturing ... -

Panel data with errors-in-variables : a note on essential and redundant orthogonality conditions in GMM-estimation
Biørn, Erik; Klette, Tor Jakob (Discussion Papers;No. 190, Working paper, 1997)General Method of Moments (GMM) estimation of a linear one-equation model using panel data with errors-in-variables is considered. To eliminate fixed individual heterogeneity, the equation is differenced across one or more ... -
Parametric aggregation of random coefficient Cobb-Douglasproduction functions : evidence from manufacturing industries
Biørn, Erik; Skjerpen, Terje; Wangen, Knut Reidar (Discussion Papers;No. 342, Working paper, 2003)Abstract: A panel data study of parametric aggregation of a production function is presented. A four-factor Cobb-Douglas function with random and jointly normal coefficients and jointly log-normal inputs is used. Since, ... -
Prevalence and substitution effects in tobacco consumption: A discrete choice analysis of panel data
Wangen, Knut Reidar; Biørn, Erik (Discussion Papers;No. 312, Working paper, 2001)Abstract: This paper analyzes tobacco demand within a discrete choice framework. Using binomial and multinomial logit models with random effects, and an unbalanced panel data set of Norwegian households over a twenty year ... -
Production - demand adjustment in Norwegian manufacturing: A quarterly error correction model
Biørn, Erik; Olsen, Hilde (Discussion Paper;No. 35, Working paper, 1988-05)In this paper, we specify a general error correction equation for seasonally unadjusted data, with an arbitrary number of regressors. Special attention is paid to the specification of trend and seasonal filters, which have ... -

Biørn, Erik (Rapporter;1985/25, Report, 1985-08-28) -
Random coefficients and unbalanced panels: an application on data from Norwegian chemical plants
Biørn, Erik; Lindquist, Kjersti-Gro; Skjerpen, Terje (Discussion Papers;No. 235, Working paper, 1998)A framework for analyzing substitution and scale properties, and technical change from plant-level panel data is presented. Focus is on comparing the constant and random coefficient specification of the substitution and ... -

Teoretisk opplegg for behandling av det private konsum i en korttidsmodell
Biørn, Erik (Rapporter;1979/27, Research report, 1979-10-31)Denne rapporten gir opplegg til en Økonometrisk modell for analyse av husholdningenes konsumtilpasning på kort sikt. Modellen er tenkt å skulle danne grunnlaget for å beskrive konsumatferden i en aggregert kvartalsmodell ... -
Varige goder i et komplett system av konsumetterspørselsfunksjoner: En modell estimert med norske kvartalsdata
Biørn, Erik; Jensen, Morten (Rapporter;1983/16, Research report, 1983-08-05)I denne rapporten presenteres hovedresultatene av en økonometrisk analyse av norske husholdningers konsumetterspørsel , basert på kvartalsdata for årene 1966 - 1978. Behandlingen av de varige konsumgodene er viet spesiell ...
