In this paper, efficiency of the estimators of the simultaneous limited dependent variable model of binary choice and censored regression is investigated. Considering the non-robustness of the parametric estimators to the distributional specification of the model, efficiencies of both the parametric Gaussian MLE and three semiparametric estimators are compared each other. Efficiency comparison is carried out by comparing the asymptotic efficiency(asymptotic variances or asymptotic MSE) of these estimators. Based upon the specific designs of the model and the distributional assumptions, the comparison is done through the numerical evaluation of the asymptotic efficiencies of the estimators.
