Note: Bias-corrected half-life estimates are obtained using the direct bootstrap procedure with 50 replications (Imbs et al. 2005b).  Numbers in square brackets are bootstrapped confidence intervals of bias-corrected half-life estimates using the method of Kilian (1998) with 50 replications. The samples consist of 9 goods in level 2, 18 goods in level 3, 46 goods in level 5, and 164 goods in level 6.
