This paper examines the exact moments of OLS and 2SLS structural estimators under the assumption that the reduced form disturbances follow a non-normal distribution of the Edgeworth type with specified skewness \((\lambda_ 3)\) and kurtosis \((\lambda_ 4)\). The exact results are given as functions of hypergeometric functions and \(\lambda_ 3\) and \(\lambda_ 4\).
