Abstract

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) estimators have been widely used in productivity analysis. The asymptotic distribution of DEA estimator derived by Kneip et al. (2003) is too complicated and abstract for analysts to use in practice, though it should be appreciated in its own right. This paper provides another way to express the limit distribution of the DEA estimator in a tractable way.
