estimated Ricardian effect. Estimating this equation using only cross-section data on the
countries in the sample, the United States, Japan, Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and Switzerland does not yield a
sufficient number of observations to provide reliable estimates of Φ. Thus pooled
time-series-cross-section data are employed. A constant inventory of 40 observations (10
countries by 4 quarters) were maintained in the sample with quarter t's estimate of

by adding the quarter' s values of the relevant variables for all the countries and deleting
those for quarter t−4. The discontinuous lines represent two standard error estimates for
