Hi everyone,
I have to copy a paper for my replication study. I'm a beginner with Stata so I don't understand much about it yet. Can you help me create the sample selection? These are the details: Observations with non-missing values of increase to UTB from current year positions (TXTUBPOSINC) aggregated over the years t-4 to t, and average total assets (AT) over the years t-4 to t greater than $10 million, with t ranging from 2012 to 2014. Drop observations with negative pretax earnings (PI) aggregated over the period t-4 and t. Drop observations with missing values of cash tax paid (TXPD) in any year t-4 to t. Drop firms incorporated outside the United States. Drop firms with zero additions to UTB aggregated over the period t-4 to t.
I'm mainly having trouble with the txtubposinc data aggregated over the years t-4 to t. For example, I don't know whether I should use a lagged variable for that. Could you help me? I really appreciate any help you can provide.
