Analysis Models

The objectives of this research are: 1). to analyze the factors which determine the production of leading small-medium food industry, 2). to analyze the effect of leading small-medium food industry production towards community income. The analysis models used are simultaneous equation model (ESM) and simple regression. The research results show that the determining factors on the production of leading small-medium food industry are investment, production capacity, labor, sales, and the utilization of technology simultaneously. However, individually, the sales have significant influence on the production of leading small-medium food industry in which determined by promotion and market share. In addition, the influence of leading small-medium food industry is very significant on community income with a contribution of 59.54%. The amount of public income in the leading small-medium food industry is IDR 1.5 million for a single production period of 1.5 months or approximately IDR 1 million per month.

The Impact

This paper investigates the impact of remittance inflows on economic growth and poverty reduction for seven African countries using annual data from 1992-2010. By using the depth of hunger as a proxy for poverty in a Simultaneous Equation Model (SEM), we find that remittances have statistically significant growth enhancing and poverty reducing impact. Drawing on our estimates, we conclude that financial development level significantly increases the remittances inflows and strengthens poverty alleviating impact of remittances. Results of our study further show a signficant interactive imapct of remittances and finacial develpment on economic growth, suggesting the substitutability between remittance inflows and financial development. We further find that 3 percentage point increase in credit provision to the private sector (financial development) can help eliminate the severe depth of hunger in the region. Remittances, serving an alternative source of private credit, can be effective in this regard. Keywords: Remittance Inflow, Poverty Alleviation, Financial Development, Simultaneous Equation Model

Linear Restrictions

A general approach for the estimation of cointegration vectors with linear restrictions is described. In the special case of zero restrictions, the cointegration relations of the paper are formally similar to the structural form of a traditional simultaneous equation model. The proposed estimation procedures require a conventional rank condition of identification but no exogeneity assumption. In place of exogenous variables there are series that are not cointegrated and can therefore describe the common trends in the system. The estimators of the paper are flexible and simple to use. They can be combined with several recent estimators developed for cointegration regressions which in the present context are formally similar to the reduced form of a simultaneous equation model. After the coefficient matrix of a cointegration regression has been estimated, the estimators of the paper can be obtained by simple generalized least squares. Both single equation estimators and more efficient system estimators are developed. The asymptotic distributions of the estimators are shown to be mixed normal so that Wald tests with asymptotic chi-square distributions under the null hypothesis can be obtained in the usual way. Convenient test procedures for checking the validity of overidentification restrictions are also provided.
