Estimating Production Uncertainty in Stochastic Frontier Production Function Models
One of the main purposes of the frontier literature is to estimate inefficiency. Given this objective, it is unfortunate that the issue of estimating “firm-specific” inefficiency in cross sectional context has not received much attention. To estimate firm-specific (technical) inefficiency, the standard procedure is to use the mean of the inefficiency term conditional on the entire composed erro...
متن کاملEvaluation Factors Affecting of Risk Production in Sistan Grape Growers by using Stochastic Frontier Approach
Due to agriculture is a risky activity and risk models is important in order to analyze the behavior of farmers, hence, in this study, the factors affecting risk-taking and risk aversion is the region grape growers. Data analysis was performed by using stochastic frontier. Data gathered by questionnaires at three counties of Zabol, Hirmand and Zahak at 265 grape farmers in crop year of 2011-201...
متن کاملAssessing the Resource Base of Japanese and U.S. Auto Producers: A Stochastic Frontier Production Function Approach
The “resource-based view of the firm” has become an important conceptual framework in strategic management but has been widely criticized for lack of an empirical base. To address this deficit, we utilize a new method for identifying inter-firm differences in efficiency within the context of stochastic frontier production functions. Using data on Japanese and U.S. automobile manufacturers, we d...
متن کاملAssessing the Resource Base of US and Japanese Auto Producers: A Stochastic Frontier Production Function Approach
The “resource-based view of the firm” has become an important conceptual framework in strategic management but has been widely criticized for lack of an empirical base. To address this deficit, we use the econometric methodology of stochastic frontier production functions to assess sources of inter-firm differences in efficiency. Using data on Japanese and US automobile manufacturers, we develo...
متن کاملFormulation and Estimation of Stochastic Frontier Production Function Models*
Previous studies of the so-called frontier production function have not utilized an adequate characterization of the disturbance term for such a model. In this paper we provide an appropriate specification, by defining the disturbance term as the sum of symmetric normal and (negative) half-normal random variables. Various aspects of maximum-likelihood estimation for the coefficients of a produc...
