Biases in willingness-to-pay measures from multinomial logit estimates due to unobserved heterogeneity
Berg, Vincent A. C. van den; Kroes, Eric; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2010
It is a common finding in empirical discrete choice studies that the estimated mean relative values of the coefficients (i.e. WTP's) from multinomial logit (MNL) estimations differ from those calculated using mixed logit estimations, where the mixed logit has the better statistical fit. However,...

Flooded house or underwater mortgage? : the implications of climate change and adaptation on housing, income, and wealth
Straten, Yasmine van der - 2023
I study the implications of climate change and adaptation on housing and income, and wealth. I embed climate change in … redistributive, as it amplifies both income and wealth inequality. Low-income workers experience a relatively larger decline in … wealth rises. Furthermore, I find that adapting to climate change is more challenging for lowincome households who are …

Consumption and wealth in the long run : an integrated unobserved component approach
Gardberg, Malin; Pozzi, Lorenzo - 2018 - Revision: September 2018
The ratio of consumption to total household wealth (i.e., tangible assets plus unobserved human wealth) is commonly … component in the consumption equation. The consumption-to-wealth ratio calculated from this model is much less persistent than …

Investment under risk with discrete and continuous assets
Elbers, Chris; Gunning, Jan Willem; Vigh, Melinda - 2009
This paper considers a general class of stochastic dynamic choice models with discrete and continuous decision variables. This class contains a variety of models that are useful for modeling intertemporal household decisions under risk. Our examples are drawn from the field of development...

Equilibrium airfares, frequencies and airport taxes in a multiple airport region : an application of the nested logit demand model
Pels, Eric; Nijkamp, Peter; Rietveld, Piet - 1998
In this paper a model, based on the nested multinomial logit model, is used to analyze airport competition and airline competition in a multiple airport region. It is shown that if the frequency elasticity of demand is smaller than 1, airfare-frequency and airport tax equilibria exist and are...
