Organizing Production In A Large Economy With Costly Communication, Paul R. Milgrom, Robert J. Weber Jul 1983

Organizing Production In A Large Economy With Costly Communication, Paul R. Milgrom, Robert J. Weber

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

The cost of collecting the information required to set a nearly optimal production plan for each firm in the economy is not negligible. This conclusion stands in contrast to common opinion that determining optimal prices requires as much information as determining an optimal plan.

The Exact Distribution Of Exogenous Variable Coefficient Estimators, Peter C.B. Phillips Jul 1983

The Exact Distribution Of Exogenous Variable Coefficient Estimators, Peter C.B. Phillips

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

This paper derives the exact probability density function of the instrumental variable (IV) estimator of the exogenous variable coefficient vector in a structural equation containing n + 1 endogenous variables and N degrees of overidentification. A leading case of the general distribution that is more amenable to analysis and computation is also presented. Conventional classical assumptions or normally distributed errors and nonrandom exogenous variables are employed.
