Abstract

Standard production theory with Cobb-Douglas and CES production functions is applied to derive demand functions for forest products. Time-series data for 1961-1978 from Canadian construction sector is employed for estimation, and sensitivity of the demand forecast is tested with respect to the choice of the production function.
