Supports the full analysis pipeline for researchers working with firm-level microdata. Provides data tools for panel preparation (import, outlier detection, classification harmonization), analytical methods (production function estimation, capital stock measurement, markups, intensity measures, distributions, regression, clustering), and disclosure tools for tagging outputs with dominance and observation counts before aggregation and publication. Production function estimation implements methods by Ackerberg, Caves and Frazer (2015) <doi:10.3982/ECTA13408>, Levinsohn and Petrin (2003) <doi:10.1111/1467-937X.00246>, Wooldridge (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.econlet.2009.04.026>, Petrin, Poi and Levinsohn (2004) <doi:10.1177/1536867X0400400202>, and Arellano and Bond (1991) <doi:10.2307/2297968> with the "too many instruments" correction by Roodman (2009) <doi:10.1111/j.1468-0084.2008.00542.x>. Markup estimation follows De Loecker and Warzynski (2012) <doi:10.1257/aer.102.6.2437>. Cost-share production function estimation follows Basu and Fernald (1997) <doi:10.1086/262073>. Capital stock estimation via the Perpetual Inventory Method follows OECD (2009) <doi:10.1787/9789264068476-en>.
