A crucial step in the quantification of damage in the context of damages claims is the estimation of the counterfactual … Difference-in-Differences (“DiD”) estimation procedure for the estimation of counterfactual prices. While DiD is a very powerful … estimation method, it is demanding in terms of conditions that need to be satisfied to allow a proper application, notably the …

We develop an estimator for models of competition among spatially differentiated firms. In contrast to existing methods (e.g., Houde (2009)), the estimator has flexible data requirements and is implementable with data that are observed at any level of aggregation. Further, the estimator is the...

This research suggests an easy-to-implement forecast combination procedure to deal with the model uncertainty issues when evaluating the cartel damages. We combine the Mallows model averaging (MMA) method with both the dummy variable (DV) and forecasting approaches to investigate the famous...

An important issue in estimating cartel overcharges is to have a reliable estimate of the but-for-the-cartel price. While the cartel price is observable, the but-for-the-cartel price is not. A construction of the but-for-cartel-price evolution by assuming perfect competition, i.e. that price...

The asymmetric moving average model (asMA) is extended to allow forasymmetric quadratic conditional heteroskedasticity (asQGARCH). Theasymmetric parametrization of the conditional variance encompassesthe quadratic GARCH model of Sentana (1995). We introduce a framework fortesting asymmetries in...

Analyzing repeated difference tests aims in significance testing for differences as well as in estimating the mean discrimination ability of the consumers. In addition to the average success probability, the proportion of consumers that may detect the difference between two products and...

The objective of this manuscript is to serve as a practical guide for estimations with the structural gravity model. After a brief review of the theoretical foundations, we summarize the main challenges with gravity estimations and we review the solutions to address those challenges. Then, we...
