Hello all
I am working with a polled cross section data of firm from different
states of India on STATA 10. I want to generate a variable sales_m
where sales_m is mean sale of firms in a industry within a state. Now
I use this command
egen sales_m = mean(sales), by (state industry)
Now I have this boubt that, am I writing the syntex correctly or not
to creat the variable correctly.
Please help
Prakash
