The SYSLIN Procedure |
This example uses PROC SYSLIN to estimate the classic Klein Model I. For a discussion of this model, see Theil (1971). The following statements read the data.

The following statements estimate the Klein model using the limited information maximum likelihood method. In addition, the parameter estimates are written to a SAS data set with the OUTEST= option.
proc syslin data=klein outest=b liml; endogenous c p w i x wsum k y; instruments klag plag xlag wp g t yr; consume: model c = p plag wsum; invest: model i = p plag klag; labor: model w = x xlag yr; run;
proc print data=b; run;
The PROC SYSLIN estimates are shown in Output 26.1.1 through Output 26.1.3.

The OUTEST= data set is shown in part in Output 26.1.4. Note that the data set contains the parameter estimates and root mean squared errors, _SIGMA_, for the first-stage instrumental regressions as well as the parameter estimates and for the LIML estimates for the three structural equations.

The following statements estimate the model using the 3SLS method. The reduced form estimates are produced by the REDUCED option; IDENTITY statements are used to make the model complete.
proc syslin data=klein 3sls reduced; endogenous c p w i x wsum k y; instruments klag plag xlag wp g t yr; consume: model c = p plag wsum; invest: model i = p plag klag; labor: model w = x xlag yr; product: identity x = c + i + g; income: identity y = c + i + g - t; profit: identity p = y - w; stock: identity k = klag + i; wage: identity wsum = w + wp; run;
The preliminary 2SLS results and estimated cross-model covariance matrix are not shown. The 3SLS estimates are shown in Output 26.1.5 through Output 26.1.7. The reduced form estimates are shown in Output 26.1.8 through Output 26.1.11.
