I promised an example and here it is:

*--------------- begin example ---------------
sysuse auto, clear
tobit weight rep78 mpg foreign, ll(2020)

/*observed variable*/
/*marginal effect*/
mfx, predict(e(2020,.))
/*elasticity*/
mfx, predict(e(2020,.)) eyex

/*latent variable*/
/*marginal effect*/
mfx
/*elasticity*/
mfx, eyex
*---------------- end example ----------------
(For more on how to use examples I sent to the Statalist, see

Hope this helps,
Maarten
