Dear Statalisters,
i sort firms by their age. i define the firm age as the difference between the current year and the first year that a firm enters the Compustat database .
Which variable ( the entry of firm in compustat database) will classify the age of firm?
not sure if I should just use : firm id , datadate, or ipodate
