摘要
A generalized stochastic frontier system is fitted with unbalanced panel data of Egyptian floor tileries and estimated using OLS, ‘within’, feasible GLS, and maximum likelihood. Hausman tests indicate ‘within’ is the correct estimator for the data. Estimates of firm‐level technical and allocative inefficiencies (and their costs) are presented for each of the estimators. Finally, sources of technical inefficiency are investigated. Copyright © 1990 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
