own-price elasticity of quantity demand for soda of between -1.0 and -1.3. These estimates ignore consumer responses on … prices to estimate unrestricted demand models that correct for both errors. The corrected own-price elasticity of quantity … demand is just -0.2 to -0.3, so tax-induced soda price increases might cut average weights by less than one pound, which is …

of the banana plants because of sufficiently low elasticity of demand. Using the cyclones of 2006 and 2011 as exogenous … events, we identify the elasticity of demand for bananas in Australia to be around -0.5. We indeed find limited evidence for …

This paper analyzes how gasoline tax rates are related to the time workers in the United States spend commuting by …-state differences and time variations in gasoline taxes. Using the American Time Use Surveys for the years 2003 to 2015, we find that … higher gasoline tax rates are related with less time spent in commuting. Furthermore, higher gasoline taxes are related to a …
