Austin,

The question I am posting is not about a question that I am asking on a problem set. Rather it is about additional coding I am trying to do to better explain results that are reported in the paper. I hope this addresses your concern. If not, please let me know.

Carl

Coelli reports that estimation of the model with convexity imposed was accomplished by maximum likelihood estimation of the system in Shazam. I don's want to make to big a point of it, but the results that I am seeing causes me to think that the parameter estimates are very fragile.
