Abstract :
This paper examines scale economies for Chinese real estate industry over 2004-2008 using a translog cost function with labor, land and construction & installation materials, and capital inputs. The findings suggest that most of listed real estate companies show scale economies, and that the impact of scale economies is greater for smaller companies and non-state-owned ones.
