This chapter uses the marginal treatment effect (MTE) to unify and organize the econometric literature on the evaluation of social programs. The marginal treatment effect is a choice-theoretic parameter that can be interpreted as a willingness to pay parameter for persons at a margin of...

This paper proposes a novel covariance estimator via a machine learning approach when both the sampling frequency and covariance dimension are large. Assuming that a large covariance matrix can be decomposed into low rank and sparse components, our method simultaneously provides a consistent...

In this paper, we compare two fundamentally different judgmental demand forecasting approaches used to estimate demand … and their corresponding demand distributions. In the first approach, parameters are obtained from a linear regression and … approach ignores dispersion and instead estimates the demand distribution based on the mean demand forecast and the historic …

We propose a new methodology for estimating the demand and cost functions of differentiated products models when demand … and cost data are available. The method deals with the endogeneity of prices to demand shocks and the endogeneity of … outputs to cost shocks, but does not require instruments for identification. We establish non-parametric identification …
