On estimating dynamic factor demands Journal Articles

abstract

• AbstractMany recent empirical studies on inter‐related factor demands involve factor demand functions whose arguments depend on the researcher's arbitrary normalization rule. This paper shows how sensitive the estimated elasticities are to the various normalizations that are possible. Alternatives that are not dependent on a normalization are suggested.
