The method for estimation and testing for cointegration put forward by Johansen assumes that the data are described by a vector autoregressive process. In this article we extend the data generating process to autoregressive moving average models without unit roots in the MA polynomial. We first...

This paper presents a Monte Carlo simulation study of the bootstrap algorithm proposed by Löthgren and Tambour (1997) for calculation of bootstrap confidence intervals for the firm-specific Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) Malmquist productivity index. The simulation results indicate that the...

This paper evaluates the performance of three bootstrap algorithms for the data envelopment analysis (DEA) estimator using a Monte Carlo simulation study. The Löthgren and Tambour (1997) (LT) algorithm; the Simar and Wilson (1997b) (SW) algorithm; and a combination of the LT and SW algorithms...

The paper compares the cointegration methods of Johansen and Bierens by means of simulations and a real world example. Drawing on the fact developed in a companion paper that the Johansen procedure has robustness properties against ARMA systems and the Bierens procedure is designed for ARMA...
