Firm Dynamics, Job Turnover, and Wage Distributions in an Open Economy (2016, unknown): “Another well-known study, Ackerberg, Caves, and Frazer (2006), reports estimates between 0.75 and 1.0.”
Processing Trade, Tariff Reductions and Firm Productivity: Evidence from Chinese Firms (2015, methodology): “As highlighted by Ackerberg et al. (2006), it is unlikely that there is enough variation left to identify the labour coefficient by using the Olley– Pakes approach.”
Selection and Market Reallocation: Productivity Gains from Multinational Production (2012, methodology): “17Ghandi et al (2012) show that the methods suggested by Ackerberg, Caves, and Frazer (2006), and Wooldrige (2009), which are based on a quasi- xed assumption on the inputs included in the production function, mantain the same identi cation problems.”
Importers, exporters, and exchange rate disconnect (2014, unknown): “However, as pointed out by Ackerberg, Caves, and Frazer (2006), a potential problem with LP is related to the timing assumption of the freely available input, labor.”
The Impact of Training on Productivity and Wages: Firm-Level Evidence (2015, methodology): “Second, the Ackerberg et al. (2006) methodology relies on the assumption that material input is fully exible and that material input choices are made contemporaneously with output choices.”
The Productivity of Information Technology Investments: New Evidence from IT Labor Data (2012, background): “…econometric identiﬁcation of production functions related to the use of (1) dynamic panel data estimators (Blundell and Bond 2000) and (2) estimators that use structural modeling techniques to identify production functions (Olley and Pakes 1996, Levinsohn and Petrin 2003, Ackerberg et al. 2006).”
Adjustment costs and the identification of Cobb Douglas production functions (2005, methodology): “These issues are discussed further in Ackerberg and Caves (2003).”
Prices, Markups and Trade Reform (2016, methodology): “To estimate the parameter vectors β and δ, we follow Ackerberg et al. (2006) and form moments based on the innovation in the productivity shock ξft.”
Estimating agglomeration economies with history, geology and worker effects (2008, unknown): “This issue has received a lot of attention in the literature (see Ackerberg, Caves, and Frazer, 2006, for a recent contribution).”
