Evidence of macroeconomic conditions impacting the earnings of men in Canada in a manner consistent with an implicit contracting framework is found using data from eleven cross-sectional surveys spanning the years 1981-1992. The estimates are similar to those found by Beaudry and DiNardo (1991)...

This paper describes a dynamic microsimulation model of cohort demographics that has been developed to consider the working lifetime in Australia. The model provides a valuable resource for studying dynamics in Australia since, in addition to the usual advantages of microsimulation analysis,...

This document provides supplementary data output involved in the production of the population and expenditure projections analysed in the study "Migration, Population Ageing and Social Expenditure in Australia" by Alvarado and Creedy (1996).

In this paper I set some information derived from data on the gross flows of males between labour market states in Australia. The data, which is monthly, has been seasonally adjusted so as to more clearly reveal underlying trends. I begin with a brief review of the labour market for males over...

This paper uses a sample of 6620 women from the 1994 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey to examine the relationship between female education and child mortality in Indonesia. Feamle education is measured in terms of both years of education and literacy. Both primary and secondary schooling...

This paper provides a description of a dynamic cohort microsimulation model that has been constructed to generate the lifetime attributes for a cohort of males and, where relevant, their families so that the characteristics of the cohort at any age are reflective of the Asutralian population....

By simulating a model of the optimal level of saving in a small open economy, this paper calculates the levels of optimal national saving, investment and the current account balance for five Asian countries, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and Philippines, for the period from 1997 to 2050....

By simulating a model of the optimal level of saving in a small open economy, this paper calculates the levels of optimal national saving for Australia for the period from 1997 to 2051. The calculations focus on the implications of making allowance for the ageing structure of the population. The...

This paper makes new projections of government social outlays for Australia. The calculations suggest that government social outlays will increase considerably as a percent of GDP over the next 50 years, by 7.3 percent of GDP in the base case. This is a greater increase than that found by...
