[R] Q:Truncated Regression Model

[Ralph Leonhardt]

Hi,

Problem: 
I have the ususal linear regression model
y=Xb
but I cant observe y (expenditure for a particular good) for some y <c
where c is fixed for all observations.
But I can observe the corresponding covariates x (incom).
 
I used the survivla5 library (survreg(Surv(y,y<c,type="left")~x) for a
censored regression model (thanks again for this tip).
Is there a way to estimate a truncated model in a similar way?

	Thank you
