This paper applies the standard rational expectations competitive storage model to the study of thirteen commodities. It explains the skewness and the existence of rare, but violent, explosions in prices coupled with a high degree of price autocorrelation in more normal times. A feature of the...

This paper develops and implements semiparametric methods for estimating binary response (binary choice) models with continuous endogenous regressors. It extends existing results on semiparametric estimation in single-index binary response models to the case of endogenous regressors. It develops...

We present identification and estimation results for the "collective" model of labour supply in which there are discrete choices, censoring of hours, and non-participation in employment. We derive the collective restrictions on labour supply functions and contrast them with restrictions implied...
