MULTIDIMENSIONAL OUTPUT INDICES

No 13828, Staff Papers from University of Minnesota, Department of Applied Economics

Abstract: This abstract describes alternative output aggregates that provide both cross-sectional and temporal comparisons appropriate for the analysis of panel data sets. Several of these multidimensional output indices are constructed using detailed data on agricultural production to illustrate the effects of fixing price weights over time, employing sample average price weights, and choosing between alternative approximations of Divisia indices.
