Table 3 Table for test of threshold method for the cases that ignore or take into account the firm heterogeneity (HF). The table only includes \(\Delta t=2\), as other values of Δt have only a minor effect on the probability densities \(\wp,\wp ^{(\mathrm{HF})}\), and \(\wp _{\mathcal{W}}\). We show a selection of years for each of the three values of \(\mathcal{W}=1,2,3\). Note that the p-values are exceedingly small for both tests
