[Gretl-users] Cost elasticity of Substitution

Hi All,           Could someone gist me  how to apply the cost elasticity of subsitution formula found in attached file.               Cheers    ________________________________ From: "Summers, Peter" <psummers(a)highpoint.edu&gt; To: Gretl list <gretl-users(a)lists.wfu.edu&gt; Sent: Wednesday, December 21, 2011 11:23 PM Subject: Re: [Gretl-users] Optimization Clarodina, I don't know of any add-on in Matlab or any other econometric software that's designed to maximize t-statistics. I also don't know of any reason why you'd want to do that. Having said that, I suppose you could write this problem down in the same way you'd do a maximum likelihood estimation, or possibly GMM. Gretl does ML and GMM estimation -- see chapters 19  and 20 of the user's guide. Is that what you're wanting to do? If so, that's definitely NOT maximizing the t-statistics in a regression. At any rate, if you really want to get maximum t's (in absolute value?), you'll have to program that yourself.
