Abstract
The third-order bias of nonlinear estimators is derived and illustrated using a variety of estimators popular in applied econometrics. A simulation using the exponential regression model indicates that the third-order analytical correction reduces bias substantially compared to higher-order bootstrap and Jackknife corrections, particularly in very small samples.
