A dynamic heterogeneous labour demand model for German manufacturing
Falk, Martin; Koebel, Bertrand M. - 2000
This paper presents an application of the Generalised Error Correction Model (GECM) for heterogeneous factor demands based on the quadratic cost function. Using data for 26 West German manufacturing industries over the period 1976-1995, it turns out that less general specifications such as the...
