课程纲要:
1. Market demand I:
-Demand, products and characteristics.
-The basic discrete choice models: Logit and Nested logit.
-Estimation of the basic discrete-choice models.
2. Market demand II:
-More consumer heterogeneity.Vertical and horizontal differentiation.
-The random coefficients models.BLP.
-Estimation of random coefficients models.
-Measuring consumer welfare.
3. Production and cost functions I:
-Unobserved efficiency, simultaneity and selection.
-Traditional approaches to estimation: Fixed effects, IV models.
-The Blundell and Bond model.
-Comparing results under different traditional approaches.
4. Production and cost functions II:
-The structural approach to estimating production functions: Olley and Pakes.
-More approaches: variable inputs, parametrics and nonparametrics.
-Productivity and endogenous productivity.
-Structural estimationof production functions.
5. Dynamic models I:
-Single agent models.
-Example: Rust discrete choice model.
-Example: dynamics of R&D choices.
-Estimation of discrete choice dynamic models.
6. Estimation of dynamic models II:
-Multiple agent dynamics.
-Example: entry and exit.
-Estimation of a model of entry and exit.
