Abstract

This research estimates a translogarithmic or translog cost function for the Québec trucking industry. This cost function includes three sets of independant variables, the first being a variable measuring the physical output; the second set is four prices of factors which are used in the production process of a trucking firm and the third set is composed of five technological conditions describing the operational characteristics of Québec trucking firms. Cette recherche applique la fonction de coût translogarithmique à l’industrie québécoise du camionnage public. Les variables explicatives de cette fonction de coût comprennent une mesure de l’output, les prix de quatre facteurs de production ainsi que cinq variables technologiques qui veulent refléter les caractéristiques opérationnelles des entreprises québécoises.
