A Pure Binary LP Model to the Facility Layout Problem.

Papahristodoulou, C. - Nationalekonomiska Institutionen, Uppsala Universitet - 1999

In facility layout problems, a major concern is the optimal design or remodeling of the facilities of an organization. The decision maker's objective is to arrange the facility in an optimal way, so that the interaction among functions (i.e. machines, inventories, persons) and places (i.e....

Labor Supply Prediction when Tax Avoidance Matters.

Agell, J.; Persson; M.; Sacklen; H. - Nationalekonomiska Institutionen, Uppsala Universitet - 1999

We examine how tax avoidance in the form of trade in well-functioning asset markets affects the empirical study of labor supply. We discuss the implications for tax policy analysis, and we show that a failure to account for avoidance responses may lead to huge errors when predicting how tax...

Assessing Social Costs of Inefficient Procurement Design

Eklöf, Matias - Nationalekonomiska Institutionen, Uppsala Universitet - 2003

This paper considers the social costs implied by inefficient allocation of contracts in a first price, sealed bid procurement auction with asymmetric bidders. We adopt a constrained (piecewise linear) strategy equilibrium concept and estimate the structural parameters of the bidders’...

Mixed Logit Estimation of the Value of Travel Time.

Algers, S.; Bergstrom, P.; Dahlberg, M.; Dillen, J.L. - Nationalekonomiska Institutionen, Uppsala Universitet - 1998

In this paper we use mixed logit specifications to allow parameters to vary in the population when estimating the value of time for long-distance car travel.
