Balanced Panels
Assume that the data are balanced (for example, all cross sections have T observations). Then you can write the following:
![\[ \tilde{\mi{y}}_\mi {it} = \mi{y_\mi {it}} - \bar{\mi{y}}_\mi {i \cdot } - \bar{\mi{y}}_\mi {\cdot t} + \bar{\bar{\mi{y}}} \]](images/etsug_panel0085.png)
![\[ \tilde{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {it} = \mi{\mb{x} _\mi {it}} - \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {i \cdot } - \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot t} + \bar{\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}} \]](images/etsug_panel0086.png)
where the symbols:
and 
are the dependent variable (a scalar) and the explanatory variables (a vector whose columns are the explanatory variables
not including a constant), respectively
and 
are cross section means
and 
are time means
and 
are the overall means
The two-way fixed-effects model is simply a regression of 
on 
. Therefore, the two-way 
is given by:
![\[ \tilde{{\beta }}_{s}= \left(\tilde{\mi{\mb{X}}}^{'}\tilde{\mi{\mb{X}}} \right)^{-1} \tilde{\mi{\mb{X}}}^{'}\tilde{\mb{y}} \]](images/etsug_panel0098.png)
The calculations of cross section dummy variables, time dummy variables, and intercepts follow in a fashion similar to that used in the one-way model.
First, you obtain the net cross-sectional and time effects. Denote the cross-sectional effects by 
and the time effects by 
. These effects are calculated from the following relations:
![\[ \hat{\gamma }_{i} = \left(\bar{\mi{y}}_\mi {i \cdot }- \bar{\bar{\mi{y}}} \right) - \tilde{{\beta }}_{s}\left( \bar{\mi{x}}_\mi {i \cdot }- \bar{\bar{\mi{x}}} \right) \]](images/etsug_panel0100.png)
![\[ \hat{\alpha }_{t} = \left(\bar{\mi{y}}_{\cdot \mi{t}}- \bar{\bar{\mi{y}}} \right) - \tilde{{\beta }}_{s}\left( \bar{\mi{x}}_{\cdot \mi{t}}- \bar{\bar{\mi{x}}} \right) \]](images/etsug_panel0101.png)
Denote the cross-sectional dummy variables and time dummy variables with the superscript C and T. Under the NOINT option the following equations give the dummy variables:
![\[ D_ i^{C} = \hat{\gamma }_{i} + \hat{\alpha }_{T} \]](images/etsug_panel0102.png)
![\[ D_ t^{T} = \hat{\alpha }_{t}- \hat{\alpha }_{T} \]](images/etsug_panel0103.png)
When an intercept is specified, the equations for dummy variables and intercept are:
![\[ D_ i^{C} = \hat{\gamma }_{i}- \hat{\gamma }_{N} \]](images/etsug_panel0104.png)
![\[ \mr{Intercept }= \hat{\gamma }_{N} + \hat{\alpha }_{T} \]](images/etsug_panel0105.png)
The sum of squared errors is:
![\[ \mr{SSE}= \sum _\mi {i = 1} ^\mi {N} \sum _\mi {t = 1} ^\mi {T_\mi {i}} (y_\mi {it} - \gamma _\mi {i}-\alpha _\mi {t} - \mb{X} _{s}\tilde{{\beta }}_{s})^{2} \]](images/etsug_panel0106.png)
The estimated error variance is:
![\[ \hat{{\sigma }}_{{\epsilon }}^{2}= \mr{SSE }/ (\mi{M}-\mi{N}-\mi{T}-(\mi{K} -1)) \]](images/etsug_panel0107.png)
With or without a constant, the variance covariance matrix of 
is given by:
![\[ \mr{Var}\left[{\tilde{\beta }}_{s}\right] = \hat{{\sigma }}_{{\epsilon }}^{2}(\tilde{\mb{X} }^{'}_{s} \tilde{\mb{X} }_{s})^{-1} \]](images/etsug_panel0071.png)
Variance Covariance of Dummy Variables with No Intercept
The variances and covariances of the dummy variables are given with the NOINT specification as follows:
![\begin{eqnarray*} \mr{Var}\left(D_\emph {i} ^{C}\right) & =& \hat{\sigma }_{\epsilon }^{2} \left(\frac{1}{T} + \frac{1}{N} - \frac{1}{NT} \right) \\ & +& \left(\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_{\mi{i} \cdot } + \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot T} - \bar{\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}}\right)^{'}\mr{Var}\left[{\tilde{\beta }}_{s}\right] \left(\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {i \cdot } + \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot T} - \bar{\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}}\right) \end{eqnarray*}](images/etsug_panel0108.png)
![\[ \mr{Var}\left(D_\mi {t} ^{T}\right) = \frac{2\hat{\sigma }_{\epsilon }^{2}}{\mi{N}} +\left(\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot t} - \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot T}\right)^{'} \mr{Var}\left[{\tilde{\beta }}_{s}\right] \left( \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot t} - \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot T}\right) \]](images/etsug_panel0109.png)

![\[ \mr{Cov}\left( D_\mi {i} ^ C,\beta \right) = -\left(\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {i \cdot } + \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot t} - \bar{\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}}\right)^{'}\mr{Var}\left[{\tilde{\beta }}_{s}\right] \]](images/etsug_panel0113.png)
![\[ \mr{Cov}\left( D_\mi {i} ^ T,\beta \right) = -\left(\bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot t} - \bar{\mi{\mb{x}}}_\mi {\cdot T}\right)^{'} \mr{Var}\left[{\tilde{\beta }}_{s}\right] \]](images/etsug_panel0114.png)
Variance Covariance of Dummy Variables with Intercept
