存在不可观测价格歧视时的汽车市场均衡价格AI 解读

Abstract In markets where sellers are able to price discriminate, individuals pay different prices that may be unobserved by the econometrician. This article considers the structural estimation of a demand and supply model of differentiated products with such price discrimination and limited information on prices taking the form of, e.g., observing list prices from catalogues or average prices. Within this framework, identification is achieved not only with usual moment…

利用支持集变化识别混合模型AI 解读

We consider the issue of identifying nonparametrically continuous mixture models. In these models, all observed variables depend on a common and unobserved component, but are mutually independent conditional on it. Such a structure applies for instance to measurement error, matching and auction models. Traditional approaches rely on parametric assumptions or strong functional restrictions. We show that these models are actually identified nonparametrically if the supports of…

离散工具变量下非可分三角模型的识别AI 解读

We study the identification through instruments of a nonseparable function that relates a continuous outcome to a continuous endogenous variable. Using group and dynamical systems theories, we show that full identification can be achieved under strong exogeneity of the instrument and a dual monotonicity condition, even if the instrument is discrete. When identified, the model is also testable. Our results therefore highlight the identifying power of strong exogeneity when…

一类共同价值拍卖模型的非参数识别与估计AI 解读

Abstract Structural econometric studies on auctions have mainly focused on the independent private value paradigm. In this paper, we are interested in the ‘opposite’ case known as the pure common value model. More precisely, we restrict our attention to a class of common value models defined by three functions: the density of the true value of the auctioned good, a unique function that appears in the definition of the conditional densities of the signals, and the function…
