This paper presents a life cycle model for the demand for health, and derives empirical specifications that distinguish … between permanent and transitory wage responses. Using panel data, we estimate dynamic health and health input demand … equations. We find evidence of negative transitory wage effects, and positive permanent effects. Estimation results based on our …

We use a calibrated stochastic life-cycle model of endogenous health spending, asset accumulation and retirement to investigate the causes behind the increase in health spending and life expectancy over the period 1965-2005. We estimate that technological change along with the increase in the...

The increasing use of demand-side management as a tool to reliably meet electricity demand at peak time has stimulated … the growing literature on models used to study demand, consumer baseline (CBL) and demand response in the electricity … market. After characterizing the general demand models, it reviews consumer baseline based on which further study the demand …
