Abstract

We develop a simulation based approach that can determine whether the semiparametric efficiency bound of a dynamic discrete choice model with fixed effects is zero or not. We illustrate the usefulness of our approach by considering a simplified version of Keane and Wolpin's (1997) model, where we show that the semiparametric information is zero.
