Predicting inflation : does the quantity theory help?

Bachmeier, Lance J. (contributor); … - 2003 - [Elektronische Ressource]

Various inflation forecasting models are compared using a simulated out-of-sample forecasting framework. We focus on the question of whether monetary aggregates are useful for forecasting inflation, but unlike previous work we examine a wide range of forecast horizons and allow for estimated as...

Follow the leader? : Evidence on European and US tax competition

One of the fundamental problems of the positive theory of income taxation is explaining why the statutory income tax schedules in all industrialized democracies are marginal-rate progressive. While it is commonly believed that this is but a simple consequence of the fact that the number of...

Does the glass ceiling exist? : A cross-national perspective on gender income mobility

Gang, Ira N. (contributor); Landon-Lane, John S. (contributor) - 2003 - [Elektronische Ressource]

We compare male and female upward labor income mobility in Germany and the United States using the GSOEP-PSID Cross-National Equivalent File. Our main interest is to test whether a glass ceiling exists for women. Conventional thinking about the glass ceiling highlights the belief that the...

Alternative approximations of the bias and MSE of the IV estimator under weak identification with an application to bias correction

Chao, John C. (contributor); Swanson, Norman R. (contributor) - 2003 - [Elektronische Ressource]

We provide analytical formulae for the asymptotic bias (ABIAS) and mean squared error (AMSE) of the IV estimator, and … construct a number of bias corrected OLS and IV estimators, which we show to be consistent under a sequential asymptotic scheme …. These bias-corrected estimators are also robust, in the sense that they remain consistent in a conventional asymptotic setup …
