Estimation of a Dynamic Auction Game
Jofre-Bonet, Mireia - 2001
This paper proposes an estimation method for a repeated auction game under the presence of capacity contraints. The … estimation strategy is computationally simple as it does not require solving for the equilibrium of the game. It uses a two stage … estimation method to repeated highway construction procurement auctions in the state of California between May 1996 and May 1999 …

A Review of Estimates of the Schooling/Earnings Relationship, with Tests for Publication Bias
Ashenfelter, Orley - 2000
measure how these estimates vary by country, over time, and by estimation method. We find evidence reporting (or file drawer …') bias in the estimates and, after due account is taken of this bias, we find that differences due to estimation method are …

Determinants of Long-Term Growth : A Bayesian Averaging of Classical Estimates (BACE) Approach
Doppelhofer, Gernot - 2000
This paper examines the robustness of explanatory variables in cross-country economic growth regressions. It employs a novel approach, Bayesian Averaging of Classical Estimates (BACE), which constructs estimates as a weighted average of OLS estimates for every possible combination of included...

One Money, One Market : Estimating the Effect of Common Currencies on Trade
Rose, Andrew K. - 1999
A gravity model is used to assess the separate effects of exchange rate volatility and currency unions on international trade. The panel data set used includes bilateral observations for five years spanning 1970 through 1990 for 186 countries. In this data set, there are over one hundred...

On the Measurement of the International Propagation of Shocks
Rigobon, Roberto - 1999
In this paper I offer an alternative identification assumption that allows one to test for changing patterns regarding the international propagation of shocks when endogenous variables, omitted variables, and heteroskedasticity are present in the data. Using this methodology, I demonstrate that...

A Reference Point Theory of Mergers and Acquisitions
Baker, Malcolm - 2009
The use of judgmental anchors or reference points in valuing corporations affects several basic aspects of merger and acquisition activity including offer prices, deal success, market reaction, and merger waves. Offer prices are biased towards the 52-week high, a highly salient but largely...

Externalities and Growth
Klenow, Peter J. - 2004
Externalities play a central role in most theories of economic growth. We argue that international externalities, in particular, are essential for explaining a number of empirical regularities about growth and development. Foremost among these is that many countries appear to share a common long...
