A linear demand system within a Seemingly Unrelated Time Series Equation framework
(Discussion Papers;No. 345, Working paper, 2003)Abstract: We consider a Seemingly Unrelated Time Series Equations framework for the linear Almost Ideal Demand system. The framework is applied to a consumer demand system covering nine non-durable commodities. We test ... -
A macromodel of local government spending behaviour in Norway
