Empirical evidence on the cost of adjustment and dynamic labour demand / by Robert A. Amano. : FB3-2/95-3E-PDF

The author uses a linear-quadratic model and attempts to estimate the relative adjustment costs of labour demand as well as its rate of adjustment towards long-run equilibrium. In contrast to others who have examined the dynamic behaviour of labour demand, the author estimates the structural parameters using the Euler equation and employs a limited-information approach that does not require an explicit solution for the model's control variables in terms of the forcing processes.--Abstract
