A detailed decomposition of the sources of the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) growth index within an output distance …

We investigate productivity and cost pass-through of German manufacturing firms using administrative data from 2001 to … 2014. Our framework allows for the estimation of quantity-based production functions for multi-product firms while … controlling for unobserved productivity shocks and unobserved input quality. Using our parameter estimates, we can compute total …

to influence productivity. To this end we estimate plant-level production functions augmented by regional characteristics …

I study the causal effect of the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) on the productivity of German …. This approach allows for an endogenous dynamic productivity process and corrects for simultaneous changes in input use or … productivity after a firm is regulated by the EU ETS. After estimating the firm specific productivity, I employ a difference …

This paper investigates the sources of total factor productivity growth in the German manufacturing sector, 1981 …-1998. Decomposition formulae for aggregate productivity growth are used to identify the effects of structural change and entry-exit on … aggregate productivity growth. Documented is a substantial rise of productivity growth after the German reunification. The bulk …
