Likelihood-based inference for dynamic panel data models
Effort, Technology and the Efficiency of Agricultural Cooperatives
The inefficiency of cooperative agriculture relative to private farms is often attributed to difficulties in monitoring or poor incentives. We develop a model to show that, in technologies with numerous sequential steps, even small shortfalls in worker effort can result in large output declines. Using data on cooperative and private farms in El Salvador, we find greater shortfalls in efficiency between cooperatives and private farms, as well as a…
Optimal Labour Contracts and Involuntary Unemployment under Costly and Imperfect Monitoring
This paper provides an explanation for the concurrence of rigid wages and involuntary unemployment. The authors consider cases in which a firm monitors its workers but at some cost. A key assumption in the model is that the firm cannot perfectly distinguish shirkers from nonshirkers. Thus, the firm has to rely on negotiated compensation and work effort, as well as monitoring, to reduce the incentive to shirk. The authors find that rigid wages and…
