This paper aims to examine the impacts of oil-price shocks on China's price levels. To that end, we develop a partial transmission input-output model that captures the uniqueness of the Chinese market. We hypothesize and simulate price control, market factors and technology substitution - the...

The constant elasticity of substitution (CES) function is an important function that is widely used in both theoretical analysis and applied economics. We propose a systematic framework to estimate the deep nested CES function using the nonlinear least squares (NLS) method. This method fills the...
