In this paper we investigate the determinants of local governments' technical efficiency in road maintenance for a … panel of German counties using a broad variety of estimation approaches. More specifically, we calculate efficiency indices … efficiency indices can be explained by estimating and comparing four different regression models. The results of our analysis …

This information is useful for policy makers to design suitable policies in … Produktion umzubauen. Signifikante Erhöhungen der Effizienz und der Produktivität waren die Folge. Die vorliegende Arbeit misst …

technical efficiency across industries. Technical efficiency is estimated by firms' fixed effects. One striking result is that … the distribution of technical efficiency across industries is positively skewed. This is because the efficiency … technical efficiency differences across industries. Our econometric analyses provide evidence that capital and human capital …

This paper analyzes the distribution of technical efficiency within manufacturing industries. Using a representative … efficiency, average firm size, capital intensity and the rate of new firm formation. Most strikingly, we find that in about 95 … percent of industries the distribution of technical efficiency is skewed to the right, not to the left as is commonly assumed. …

The stochastic frontier model with heterogeneous technical efficiency explained by exogenous variables is augmented … simultaneous maximum likelihood estimation of all parameters is exhibited. The technical efficiency estimates are comparable to … improve estimates of technical efficiency in a production frontier that is usually biased downwards. …

Technical efficiency in the Danish trawl fishery in the North Sea is estimated for 1997 and 1998 by a stochastic … production frontier model. This model allows noise when the frontier and the technical efficiency is found, which for fisheries … efficiency is estimated to be 0.82. On average, industrial vessels have a higher technical efficiency than human con …

This paper applies a stochastic frontier approach to analyze the evolution of technical efficiency in manufacturing as … of our analysis are threefold. First, technical efficiency was increasing over the analyzed period and acted as a … exists a considerable difference in the level of technological development, measured in terms of structural efficiency, of …

In this paper we examine the significance of labour productivity and use of inputs in explaining technical efficiency … of rice production in Bangladesh. We find that higher labour productivity can stimulate high efficiency gains, but … increased use of inputs (except land) induces negative marginal effect on technical efficiency. While more use of land, improved …
