Re: st: RE: RE: More on F test and the translog

The translog described in my email does not estimate Beta21, Beta31
and Beta32. The reason is because when one estimates the translog,,
LnX1.LnX2 is the same as Ln.X2.LnX1, similarly for
LnX2.LnX3=LnX3.LnX2 etc.. These cross products are not viewed as
different from each other and hence only one of the pair is estimated.
But the homogeneity test requires equality between Beta(12)=Beta
(21) etc in addition to the others..
If I understand you correctly, you have already imposed \beta_{ij} =
\beta_{ji} -- that is, symmetry -- in your estimation. Hence, you
cannot test your "fourth" restriction, as it holds by assumption.
Hope that helps.
