Summary/Abstract |
The purpose of this note is to draw the attention of general practicing economists to the fact that some methods or short cuts of constructing a price index for capital goods that have been used in past studies of fixed investment at firm or industry levels, may not be appropriate for a similar study covering recent periods.

This paper demonstrates that in estimating SUR models possessing trended independent variables and autoregressive disturbances it is imperative that both the auto-and cross-correlations of the disturbances be properly taken into account. Othewise, one might do more harm than good.

Summary/Abstract |
In this paper, we cast doubts on the empirical relevance of Mundell's well known assignment of monetary and fiscal policy to restore full employment and balance of payments equilibrium. Applying Mundell's "Principles of effective market classification" (EMC), we show that there might exist cases where this traditional assignment has in fact to be reversed.

Summary/Abstract |
Within the past decade an increasing amount of research effort has been devoted to the application of production theory to educational institutions. Just as private firms combine raw materials, labor and capital to produce outputs, schools combine the "raw materials" of a student's background with school inputs to produce educational outputs such as cognitive achievement.
