Instructions for running matching code
Inputs and Outputs
- Input: tab delimited file "E:/McNair/Projects/LBO/Clean/STATApredictLBOclean.txt"
- This contains list of LBO and nonLBO firms from compustat 1970-2015, propensity scores, patent data, and other variables generated from stata code "statadatasetup4.do" and "statapredictLBOclean.do"
- Output: tab delimited file "E:/McNair/Projects/LBO/New matching/matchresults.txt"
- This is the input file, except with an additional column "matchpair" indicating matched pairs:
positive integers identify pairs matched, negative integers identify matched non-LBOs in years other than the match, -0.1 identifies LBOs that failed to match under given constraints
