Martin is right, but I think that this calculation is better done on
the log of the ratio and then converted back to the ratio scale. In
that way, the CIs for x/y and y/x will be compatible.

I want to calculate the marginal rates of subsititution of the attributes of choice alternatives by taking the ratio of coefficients (similar to what people do when calculating willingness to pay estimates by taking attribute/cost coefficients). I need help with calculating the confidence interval around the ratio of two coefficients.
