We show that exact computation of the censored least absolute deviations (CLAD) estimator proposed by Powell (1984) may be achieved by formulating the estimator as a linear Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) problem with disjunctive constraints. We apply our approach to three previously studied...

We provide a framework for the estimation of the impact of fertility timing on female long-term labor supply, measured as labor market work duration. We show that the genuine treatment is waiting time to birth rather than birth per se. In the application we control for the joint decision of...

This paper constructs estimators for panel data regression models with individual specific heterogeneity and two-sided censoring and truncation. Following Powell (1986) the estimation strategy is based on moment conditions constructed from re-censored or re-truncated residuals. While these...
