In this paper we develop a model of the banking firm that enables us to test for portfolio separation. Our theoretical model generalizes existing intertemporal adjustment-cost models by assuming that these costs coexist simultaneously on both sides of the bank's balance sheet. The optimal...

The purpose of this paper is to apply the theory of Lie transformation groups as developed by the first author, and derive a testable model of production and technical change. The econometric model is then applied to data derived by F. Gollop and D. Jorgenson for U.S. manufacturing industries...
