We compute the productivity gaps in manufacturing industries by urban, rural less sparse and
rural sparse locations in the UK. This is done by using firm-specific total factor productivities,
which are estimated by a ...
We estimate productivity dynamics within 4-digit manufacturing industries, using FAME data on UK Companies, from 1994 to 2003. We extend the algorithm in Olley and Pakes (1996) to allow for a selection bias driven by the ...
Within a structural model we explicitly allow for the trade orientation of companies to estimate productivity dynamics within 4-digit UK manufacturing industries. We use the FAME data on UK companies over the period ...
