In simultaneous equations models, each equation is normalized with respect to one endogenous variable. Strictly speaking, since the endogenous variables are all jointly determined, it should not matter which variable is chosen for normalization. However, some commonly used methods of estimation (lik...

Summary: | In simultaneous equations models, each equation is normalized with respect to one endogenous variable.

In practice, normalization is determined by the way economic theories are formulated. |
