We propose a new nonparametric approach to estimate the production function for housing. Our estimation treats output … production function for housing is reasonably well, though not perfectly, approximated by a Cobb-Douglas function and close to … estimation concerns, we estimate an elasticity of housing production with respect to non-land inputs of about 0.80. …

The macroeconomic production function is a traditional key element of modern macroeconomics, as is the more recent … knowledge production function which explains knowledge/patents by certain input factors such as research, foreign direct … analysis, namely in the form of a combination of an empirically relevant knowledge production function for open economies …

We investigate the impact of rising temperatures on firm productivity using longitudinal firm-level balance-sheet data from private sector firms in 14 European countries, combined with detailed weather data. Our findings, based on control-function techniques and fixed-effects regressions, reveal...

Much of the empirical literature on PRP (Performance Related Pay) focuses on a question of whether the firm can increase firm performance in general and enterprise productivity in particular by introducing PRP and if so, how much. However, not all PRP programs are created equal and PRP programs...

More than ten percent of Americans with recent work experience say they will continue social distancing after the COVID-19 pandemic ends, and another 45 percent will do so in limited ways. We uncover this Long Social Distancing phenomenon in our monthly Survey of Working Arrangements and...
