Notes: 1. Robust standard errors reported in parentheses.
2. All explanatory variables are in logs and lagged once (i.e. the values are for 2004).
3. The inflation model of the Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial model is a logit, the regres-
sors are the same as in the main specification. Results available upon request.
4. Marginal effect evaluated at the sample mean. Standard errors in parentheses, for
the derivation see appendix. *, **, and *** indicate significance at 10%, 5%, and 1%,
respectively.
