Below is an IV FE regression linking log output (ys) to log capital stock (k) and log employment (n) in a firm-level dataset. Employment is regarded as endogenous and therefore instrumented with two instrumental variables, iv1 and iv2 (not shown). The model is estimated using xtivreg2 command in Stata.
