Abstract

To avoid the problem of product aggregation, the production process is formulated as F(a) = G(v) where a and v are vectors of products and factors respectively. F(a) is further specified as a multistage CES function and estimated by using the first-order conditions and duality relations. Some general questions of judging the results and the adequacy of grouping are discussed.
