摘要
The paper presents a two-stage method for estimating the parameters in the censored linear model Y-i = max(0, alpha(o) + X-i'beta(o)), 1 less than or equal to i less than or equal to n. In the first stage the data are grouped in some groups and then some adjustments are made, the results are used in the latter stage to form a Tobin-type estimate. The asymptotic normality of the estimate is proved and some simulations are made.
