| Popis | The paper brings a survey of flexible functional forms and summarizes the theoretical properties of several functional types(indirect utility,cost,expenditure function and the appropriate input demand systems).The notion of flexibility of the functional form (relating to the character of its parameters), consistency with the economic theory (considered in contexts of producer or consumer behaviour) and the domain of applicability (towards admissible values of independent variables)are discussed. The comparative example based on the TRANSLOG and the generalized Leontief unit cost function is chosen to elucidate the main toipc of the article. |
