On the price and structural efficiency in Farrell's model

Article Abstract:

A mean variance model is developed to characterize the price efficiency at the firm level in Farrell's model that defines the production frontier. Problems of estimating structural efficiency at the industry level are also discussed. It is shown that the theory of stochastic dominance can be used to compare the efficiency distribution of two or more industries. The model is also proposed for combining the two measures of production and cost.
