levpredict is a post-estimation command for use after a log-linear regression model has been estimated. It generates predictions of the levels of the dependent variable for the estimation sample. These predictions avoid the retransformation bias that arises when predictions of the log dependent variable are exponentiated. See Cameron and Trivedi, MUS, 2009, 3.6.3.
