Imposing and testing curvature conditions on a Box-Cox cost function
Koebel, Bertrand M. - 2000
We present a new method for imposing and testing concavity of a cost function using asymptotic least squares, which can easily be implemented even for cost functions which are nonlinear in parameters. We provide an illustration on the basis of a (generalized) Box-Cox cost function with six...

Tests of representative firm models : results for German manufacturing industries
Koebel, Bertrand M. - 1996
Many studies of producer behavior consider cost and input demand functions de-rived from microeconomic theory and … estimation bias. An alternative is to restrict individual behavioral functions to be linear in the firm specific parameters. The … form and to explicitly take account of firm heterogeneity. Estimation for German manufacturing sectors confirms that ne …
