We analyze the effects of uncertainty on WTA, WTP and the WTA–WTP gap. Extending the approach of Weber (Econom Lett 80:311–315, <CitationRef CitationID="CR17">2003</CitationRef>) to the case of lotteries, we develop an exact expression for the WTA–WTP gap that allows identification of its magnitude under different utility...</citationref>

This paper presents a method of predicting individuals’ welfare changes (compensating and equivalent variations) arising from a tax or social security policy change in the context of behavioural microsimulation modelling, where individuals can choose between a limited number of discrete hours...

We introduce an augmented Becker–DeGroot–Marschak mechanism for the revelation of willingness-to-accept and willingness-to-pay in transaction cycles. The mechanism can be used to test for a behavioral anomaly.

By employing order-theoretic comparative statics, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the direct utility function (alternatively, on the indirect utility function) to guarantee that the compensating and equivalent variations are monotonically increasing in income. We also show that...
