Scope Economies in Banking: The Hybrid Box-Cox Function

A Sinan Cebenoyan

The Financial Review, 1990, vol. 25, issue 1, 115-25

Abstract: This paper provides evidence on scope economies in banking using the Box-Cox hybrid functional form on five products and two inputs. A factor demand equation augmented system of equations is estimated using the iterative Zellner technique. Strict Willig-type scope estimates indicate that there are scope diseconomies in the sample of banks in the Functional Cost Analysis Program data for 1983. Copyright 1990 by MIT Press.
