    We estimate Frisch labour supply functions for married women using information on desired hours, under the assumptions that these are based on a smooth convex approximation of the budget constraint. The minimum distance approach used allows for correlated random effects both in the wage and in the taste-shifter equations, and for an unbalanced panel. We use a subsample of the German Socio-economic Panel for the years 1985-1989.

    When studying particular subgroups of a population, like for instance lone parents, the econometrician typically has few observations at hand. In such a situation, it is vital to take advantage of any valid complementary information that may be available. In this paper we illustrate, for the estimation of a participation model for lone mothers on data from the German Socio-Economic Panel 1984-1990, the relative benefits derived from using the panel structure of the data and from including macro information in the form of extra moments, as proposed by Imbens and Lancaster. The efficiency gains we find amount to having up to six times as many observations, and are shared almost equally between using the panel structure optimally and including macro information.

    The focus of the paper is on the analysis of the individual determinants of self-employment in East Germany after unification, with special respect to the dynamic issues which may arise. The data set used is the Arbeitsmarkt-Monitor für die neuen Bundesländer, which is a panel data set consisting of four waves covering the period from November 1990 to November 1991. The attrition rate in this data set is high. The data set and the economic questions of interest give raise to methodological issues concerning estimation techniques for limited dependent variable models on panel data. Smooth Simulated Maximum Likelihood methods are proposed to allow for state dependence as well as endogenous attrition in the estimation. The results indicate the importance of the dynamics which drive the emergence of the small business sector in East Germany. Other important factors appear to be human capital aspects, institutional restrictions, expectations about the future of the local economy, the profession in 1989 and martial status. The simulations performed confirm the importance of the dynamics and suggest that self-employment in East Germany might reach the level of self-employment in West Germany as soon as 1995.

    In the face of complex budget constraints the assumption of rationally acting individuals having complete knowledge of the tax system is a theoretical borderline. The specific issues examined in this study are (i) to what extent do consumers (here married women) perceive their true marginal tax rate when they make their labour supply decisions?, and (ii) how does the perception of the marginal tax rate differ among various socio-economic groups?. Using different approaches and different data sets·we consistently find that (i) against conventional wisdom the assumption of complete knowledge of the tax system does not fit the data well, and that (ii) education appears to be the main determinant of a correct perception of the marginal tax rate.

    This paper addresses three major aspects of firms' process innovative activity: forward- looking behaviour, uncertainty w.r.t. returns of R&D investments, and oligopolistic competition on the product market. Assuming that R&D expenditures are cost-reducing investments, we derive an Euler equation for process innovations and discuss alternative panel econometric approaches suitable to the case where only qualitative information is available. Empirical results are based on an unbalanced panel of German manufacturing firms for 1984-1989 and suggest that the Schumpeterian causality from firm size to innovation activity might in fact be attributed, at least partly, to heterogeneity in the perception of process innovative success.

    The need for better targeting of active labour market programmes is evident from the many evaluation studies that find insignificant or even negative effects. A statistical system could contribute to a more precise targeting of labour market programmes to those individuals who are likely to benefit from them. Such a system could assist caseworkers in selecting adequate programmes on an individual basis. In this paper, international experiences with these systems are surveyed and a potential approach for Switzerland is developed. The simulated outcomes indicate that a statistical selection system could have contributed to a substantial re-employment increase.
