• The use of a variable cost function in the regulation of the Italian water industry (2001, unknown): “For instance, Kim (1987), Kim and Clarc (1988), Fabbri and Fraquelli (2000) and Mizutani and Urakami (2001) examine the existence of economies of scale based on cost model specifications which include as explanatory variables some network characteristics variables.7 The inclusion in the cost model…”
