Abstract: | This article discusses the concept of returns to scale (RTS) in the framework of data envelopment analysis production and cost analyses is discussed, focusing on an occurrence of multiple solutions and how to deal with such a difficulty. Dual relationships btw. production-based and cost-based RTS estimates are also theoretically discussed. |
