Aggregate industry behaviour in a monopolistic competition model with heterogeneous firms
(Discussion Papers;No. 352, Working paper, 2003)Abstract: The paper analyses how a tractable representation of productivity heterogeneity among firms modifies the standard Dixit-Stiglitz (DS) model of monopolistic competition. The properties of the asymmetric model are ... -
Aggregate productivity and heterogeneous firms
(Discussion Papers;No. 266, Working paper, 2000)It is an established fact that firms, even within narrowly defined industries, differ with respect to productivity. In this paper we analyse how observed heterogeneity in productivity is affected by endogenous producer ... -
Aggregate productivity effects of technology shocks in a model of heterogeneous firms : the importance of equilibrium adjustments
(Discussion Papers;No. 198, Working paper, 1997)This paper studies how productivity shifts at the level of the firm are transmitted to aggregate industry productivity in a model of heterogeneous firms. We analyse both uniform productivity shifts, and catching up by ... -
Aggregation and aggregation biases in production functions : a panel data analysis of translog models
(Discussion Papers;No. 317, Working paper, 2002)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 ... -
Empirical patterns of firm growth and r&d investment: a quality ladder model interpretation
(Discussion Papers;No. 188, Working paper, 1997)We present a model of endogenous firm growth with R&D investment and innovation as the engine of growth. The objective of our analysis is to present a framework that can be used for microeconometric analysis of firm ... -
Lock-in and the transition to hydrogen cars. When should governments intervene?
(Discussion Papers;No. 516, Working paper, 2007)Abstract: The density of fuel filling stations influences consumers' utility of private car transport. Thus, to the extent that different modes of private transport require different fuels, there may exist a network ... -
Netback pricing as a remedy for the Russian gas deficit
(Discussion Papers;No. 554, Working paper, 2008)Abstract: This descriptive study discusses the effects of increases in domestic gas prices on the Russian gas market. Domestic natural gas prices have remained below their long-run marginal cost for more than a decade ... -
Parametric aggregation of random coefficient Cobb-Douglasproduction functions : evidence from manufacturing industries
(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, ... -
The financing of young firms. How persistent are borrowing constraints?
(Discussion papers;707, Working paper, 2012-10)Are investments by new firms constrained by access to financing? If so, are the constraints persistent or do firms overcome their financing problems during the first years of operation? We examine the role of capital ... -
When is mighty Gazprom good for Russia?
(Discussion Papers;No 526, Working paper, 2007)Abstract: In the late 1990s, several proposals for a structural reform that would bring competition and market prices to the Russian gas industry were intensely debated. Splitting up Russian gas monopolist Gazprom into ...
