Simultaneous equation methods (econometrics)

Simultaneous equation methods (econometrics)

Simultaneous equation methods have been used in econometrics to take account of the fact that economic variables such as prices and quantities are, in general, jointly determined in market equilibrium. Important examples include instrumental variables, two-stage least squares, three-stage least squares and seemingly unrelated regression models.
