a-Dependent variable is wage in level in thousands of marks. Also included are dummies
for the type of contract, large firm size, public sector, occupations, industries and years.
b-Estimation using variables in t and t - 2 in the wage equation.

C-Estimation of Ω using the residuals from NLIV with Ω = I in a first step. Number of
observations is 7775 in the comparative advantage case and 6904 in the learning case.
The instruments for previous wage in the comparative advantage case include all the rank
interactions between t and t-2 as well skills interacted with rank. In the learning case,
current rank affiliation is instrumented using rank affiliation in t-3.
