The printed table has missing variable names on the left-hand side of the table. The table should appear as follows:

*** = significant at the 1% level, ** = significant at the 5% level, * = significant at the 10% level.

Note: Robust standard errors (clustered by plant for random effects) are used to account for potential heteroskedasticity. Results of the Breusch-Pagan Test (null of no random effects) is always rejected at the 1% level. These results come from estimates that also include year, industry, and region dummies. Full results including constants and coefficients on year, industry, and region dummies are available from the author.
