Suppose we observe only $\tilde{x}$ and $\tilde{y}$ which are the true values measured with error:

$$ \tilde{y} = y + v.$$
We would like to estimate:
$$ y = \beta x + \epsilon$$ …

Cobb-Douglas production function with expenditures rather than units
If prices are constant then quantities are proportional to expenditures. Consider :
$$ Y=AK^{\alpha}L^{\beta} = A(\frac{E_{K}}{r})^{\alpha}(\frac{E_{L}}{w})^{\beta} $$
$$ = (\frac{A}{r^\alpha w^\alph …
