The labor-supply elasticity and borrowing constraints : why estimates are biased
Domeij, David (contributor); Flodén, Martin (contributor) - 2001 - [Elektronische Ressource]
The labor-supply elasticity is a central element in many macroeconomic models. We argue that assumptions underlying previous econometric estimates of the intertemporal labor supply elasticity are inconsistent with incomplete markets economies. In particular, if the econometrician ignores...

Impediments to the productive employment of labor in Japan
Ono, Hiroshi (contributor); Rebick, Marcus E. (contributor) - 2002 - [Elektronische Ressource]
We examine a number of personnel practices, laws and regulations that lower the supply of labor in the Japanese economy. Broadly speaking, there are two kinds of impediments, those that restrict the movement of labor between firms, and those that discourage women from participating to a greater...

Tax effects on work activity, industry mix and shadow economy size : evidence from rich-country comparisons
Davis, Steven J. (contributor);  … - 2004 - [Elektronische Ressource]
Guided by a simple theory of task assignment and time allocation, we investigate the long run response to national differences in tax rates on labor income, payrolls and consumption. The theory implies that higher tax rates reduce work time in the market sector, increase the size of the shadow...

Inference for unit roots in a panel smooth transition autoregressive model where the time dimension is fixed
He, Changli (contributor); Sandberg, Rickard (contributor) - 2005 - [Elektronische Ressource], Rev. February 18, 2005
In this paper we derive a unit root test against a Panel Logistic Smooth Transition Autoregressive (PLSTAR). The …, finite sample properties of the test are examined. We highlight scenarios under which the traditional panel unit root tests … by Harris and Tzavalis have inferior or reasonable power compared to our test. -- Dynamic nonlinear panel ; Smooth …
