I have a data set which has four choices, people choosing between car,
rail, auto and air. The choice of an alternate is affected by the
availability of the alternate (if air, rail, bus and car is available
to them or not), travel time and travel cost and age of the person. I
need to estimate the utility function for a person for choosing each
alternate. I could do it using biogeme but I am not sure how to do it
in stata.
The utility function would be
Vi,bus= constant+ B1*time+ B2*cost (assuming this is the base choice)
Vi, car= constant + B3*time + B4*cost + B5* age
Vi, air = constant + B6* time + B7* cost + B8*age
Vi, rail = constant + B9* time + B10* cost + B11* age
