*------------------ begin example ------------------
sysuse auto, clear
generate wgt = weight/1000
generate pr = price/1000
tobit mpg wgt pr, ll(17)
margins, dydx(*) predict(ystar(17,.)) post
nlcom _b[wgt]/_b[pr]
*------------------- end example -------------------
(For more on examples I sent to the Statalist see:

Hope this helps,
