It is then proved that such neoclassical technologies are regular (which implies that consumption is well behaved across steady-state equilibria). Regularity is also a necessary and sufficient condition for near aggregation (which implies an aggregate production function with all but one of the usual neoclassical properties). Except perhaps for some fluke cases, the existence of an aggregate production function with all of the usual neoclassical properties (full aggregation) requires the stronger EOCC property. © 2008 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.}, Doi = {10.1111/j.1467-999X.2007.00302.x}, Key = {fds349417} } @article{fds349418, Author = {Burmeister, E}, Title = {Theory of production: A long-period analysis - Kurz,HD, Salvadori,N}, Journal = {JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC LITERATURE}, Volume = {34}, Number = {3}, Pages = {1344-1346}, Publisher = {AMER ECON ASSN}, Year = {1996}, Month = {September}, Key = {fds349418} } @article{fds349419, Author = {Burmeister, E and McElroy, MB}, Title = {APT and Multifactor Asset Pricing Models with Measured and Unobserved Factors: Theoretical and Econometric Issues}, Volume = {27}, Pages = {135-154}, Year = {1992}, Key = {fds349419} } @article{fds349420, Author = {Burmeister, E and McElroy, MB}, Title = {The residual market factor, the APT, and mean-variance efficiency}, Journal = {Review of Quantitative Finance and Accounting}, Volume = {1}, Number = {1}, Pages = {27-49}, Year = {1991}, Month = {January}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF02408405}, Abstract = {The rapidly increasing volume of both published and unpublished work on the arbitrage pricing theory (APT) of Ross (1976) has given rise to a number of misunderstandings at the interface of theoretical and econometric work. In this article we extend the theoretical structure of our previous work (McElroy and Burmeister, 1985, 1988; Burmeister and McElroy, 1987, 1988) to provide a broad yet rigorous framework both for econometric estimation and for better economic interpretation of new empirical results. We begin with the case where all K factors are observed, and then present the second case of K-1≡J observed APT factors and one unobserved factor, the residual market factor introduced in McElroy and Burmeister (1985). The economic interpretations for equivalent specifications of this model are discussed, and we enumerate several immediate payoffs to these specifications. The main new results are concerned with the sometimes intricate relationships among APT models with K factors and APT models with K factors that are constrained to satisfy mean-variance efficiency restrictions. These results are not only of theoretical interest, but more importantly they provide the basis for econometric estimation and testing of nested hypotheses. These econometric issues are discussed in detail. © 1991 Kluwer Academic Publishers.}, Doi = {10.1007/BF02408405}, Key = {fds349420} } @article{fds349422, Author = {McElroy, MB and Burmeister, E}, Title = {Arbitrage pricing theory as a restricted nonlinear multivariate regression model: Iterated nonlinear seemingly unrelated regression estimates}, Journal = {Journal of Business and Economic Statistics}, Volume = {6}, Number = {1}, Pages = {29-42}, Year = {1988}, Month = {January}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/07350015.1988.10509634}, Abstract = {By replacing the unknown random factors of factor analysis with observed macroeconomic variables, the arbitrage pricing theory (APT) is recast as a multivariate nonlinear regression model with across-equation restrictions. An explicit theoretical justification for the inclusion of an arbitrary, well-diversified market index is given. Using monthly returns on 70 stocks, iterated nonlinear seemingly unrelated regression techniques are employed to obtain joint estimates of asset sensitivities and their associated APT risk “prices.” Without the assumption oi normally distributed errors, these estimators are strongly consistent and asymptotically normal. With the additional assumption of normal errors, they are also full-information maximum likelihood estimators. Classical asymptotic nonlinear nested hypothesis tests are supportive of the APT with measured macroeconomic factors. © 1988 American Statistical Association.}, Doi = {10.1080/07350015.1988.10509634}, Key = {fds349422} } @article{fds349421, Author = {BURMEISTER, E and MCELROY, MB}, Title = {JOINT ESTIMATION OF FACTOR SENSITIVITIES AND RISK PREMIA FOR THE ARBITRAGE PRICING THEORY}, Journal = {JOURNAL OF FINANCE}, Volume = {43}, Number = {3}, Pages = {721-735}, Year = {1988}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.2307/2328195}, Doi = {10.2307/2328195}, Key = {fds349421} } @article{fds349423, Author = {McElroy, MB and Burmeister, E and Wall, KD}, Title = {Two estimators for the apt model when factors are measured}, Journal = {Economics Letters}, Volume = {19}, Number = {3}, Pages = {271-275}, Year = {1985}, Month = {January}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0165-1765(85)90035-7}, Abstract = {Non-linear SUR and ITSUR techniques are proposed for the estimation of the APT and the CAPM when the factors are observed.

Built-in mechanisms for control or guidance of such systems may be quite elaborate but somewhat imperfect and indirect. Two primary propositions are discussed. The first is that the evolution of the complex markets basic in western economies has realized an institutional structure through which decentralized guidance of the economy can be implemented. The second is that with such market structures it may be possible to design economic policies which realize sufficient control of the economic system without direct intervention in the optimizing decisions of individual elements in the system. The paper is primarily tutorial and surveys the relevant technical literature on models of economic growth. However, some new results and a new interpretationof known results are presented.
