As a contribution to further development of the stochastic frontier methodology the specification method for a 3-factor stochastic model of the production potential of a company is given. Along with labor input and physical capital input we consider intellectual capital as a basic production...

In elaboration of the stochastic frontier methodology we offer an approach to test a statistic hypothesis about independence of random components of a stochastic production function for the purpose of estimation of technical efficiency. We describe the dependence between the error components by...
