Dear Limdep-listers,
I need your advice with regard to the Stochastic Frontier models that
Limdep 9 can estimate before I proceed with the purchase of the
Software. What I wish Limdep 9 can do is the estimation of models based
on the Battese and Coelli (1995) and Cuesta and Orea (2002) models; that
is, panel data estimation with the efficiency estimates regressed on Z
exogenous variables (the first paper's model). Moreover, I need to be
able to estimate this model with a parameterisation of the inefficiency
term that allows the efficiency estimates' rank to vary across time and
firms, something that the Battese and Coelli (1995) does not allow. This
paratemerisation was suggested much later by Cuesta and Orea (2002) even
they did not include any Z exogenous variables.
Thank you in advance.
