- Yes, you can normalize the prices.
- Yes, it is appropriate to add demand shifters. See:
http://ideas.repec.org/a/ecm/emetrp/v49y1981i6p1533-51.html.In the
vocabulary of this paper, if you include them linearly in the share
equations, you're doing linear demographic translating. The original
QAIDS paper by Banks, Blundell and Lewbel does this.
- Yes, you can use the delta method. See the help for -nlcom-.
