We apply a heterogenous coefficient spatial autoregressive panel model from Aquaro, Bailey and Pesaran (2015) to explore competition/cooperation by Berlin fueling stations in setting prices for diesel and E5 fuel. Unlike the maximum likelihood estimation method set forth by Aquaro, Bailey and...

Focus is on efficient estimation of a dynamic space-time panel data model that incorporates spatial dependence, temporal dependence, as well as space-time covariance and can be implemented in large N and T situations, where N is the number of spatial units and T the number of time periods....

We introduce a regression-based gravity model for commodity flows between 35 regions in Austria. We incorporate information regarding the highway network into the spatial connectivity structure of the spatial autoregressive econometric model. We find that our approach produces improved model fit...
