We propose a new instrument for estimating the price elasticity of gasoline demand that exploits systematic differences … response to an aggregate oil price shock. Time-varying estimates do not support the view that the gasoline demand elasticity … rose to about -0.2 in 2015-16, but has remained stable since 2016. Gasoline demand is more responsive in states with lower …

Least-squares estimates of the response of gasoline consumption to a change in the gasoline price are biased toward … zero, given the endogeneity of gasoline prices. A seemingly natural solution to this problem is to instrument for gasoline … prices using gasoline taxes, but this approach tends to yield implausibly large price elasticities. We demonstrate that …

rebates in France as quasi-natural experiments to infer the price sensitivity of fuel demand. Based on granular individual …

This paper develops a pseudo-panel approach to examine household electricity demand behaviour through the household … evidence that the income elasticity of French residential electricity demand is 0.22, averaged over our four cohorts of …

This paper examines the advantages and drawbacks of alternative methods of estimating oil supply and oil demand … conclusion that the one-month oil supply elasticity is close to zero, which implies that oil demand shocks are the dominant …

We provide a new framework to identify demand elasticities in markets where managers rely on algorithmic … identify demand elasticities across hotel room types and over time. We confirm these elasticity estimates with a difference …-function approach to two classic questions in the dynamic pricing literature: the evolution of price elasticity of demand over time as …

price regulations. Consumers demand stricter fuel price regulations to provide transparency about the current price level … Price Fixing Act on gasoline and diesel price levels. Using the synthetic control method, we construct a counterfactual and … Price Fixing Act came into effect, gasoline prices are 23.4% lower than the synthetic control predicts. The effect on diesel …
