Dear Fernando and all:
Thanks for your help. Now works. This is
a training example to learn how to estimate a
Box-Cox (right and/or left side transformations)
with R (as LIMDEP does) in order to compare these
estimations with the ones derived by applying
NLS, ones the dependent variable has been divided
by its geometric mean (see below) as suggested by
(Zarembka (1974) and Spitzer (1984). However the
example of the demand of money seems not to work.
Any idea to face the error messages or how to
estimate a Box-Cox function with R?
Best regards,
Ikerne
