The estimation of parameters in regression models with multiplicative errors is usually based on the gamma or log-normal likelihoods. Under reciprocal misspecification, we compare the small sample efficiencies of two sets of estimators via a Monte Carlo study. We further consider the case where the errors are a random sample from a Weibull distribution. We compute the asymptotic relative efficiency of quasi-likelihood estimators on the original scale to least squares estimators on the log-transformed scale and perform a Monte Carlo study to compare the small sample performances of quasi-likelihood and least squares estimators.
