This paper highlights the hidden dependence of the basic pricing equation of a multi-period consumption-based asset pricing model on price and payoff autocorrelations. We obtain the approximations of the basic pricing equation that describe the mean price “to-day,” mean payoff...

The economic and financial variables of economic agents determine macroeconomic variables. Current models consider agents’ variables that are determined by the sums of values and volumes of agents’ trades during some time interval Δ. We call them first-order economic variables. We describe...

This work employs the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach to investigate the nexus between macroeconomic variables and inflation in Madagascar. The findings reveal significant impacts of various factors, including imports, GDP, exchange rates, and oil prices, on inflation dynamics....

In this paper, I argue that in situations of complex network dependence, the traditional and widely used Hausman-style instrumental variable estimation may not be valid for causal identification. This is the case for inter-regional migration networks when evaluating place-based labor market...

This paper presents methods for financial analysis of mining exploration companies. In particular, two financial ratios to compare between companies and over time. The ratios focus on the amount of exploration spending relative to corporate overhead spending and market capitalization. The...

A quantization procedure for the Yang-Mills equations for the Minkowski space R 1,3 is carried out in such a way that fi eld maps satisfying Wightman axioms of Constructive Quantum Field Theory can be obtained. Moreover, by removing the infrared and ultraviolet cutoff s, the spectrum of the...

The purpose of the study is to examine the relationship between income inequality and environmental degradation in ASEAN-6 countries namely Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, and Vietnam. It also provide analysis from the Islamic perspective based on result of the...

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common clinical problem and potent risk factor for stroke. However, real-world effectiveness and outcomes for AF patients are not well described. Objective: To compare the economic and clinical impact of stroke and warfarin use on patients with...

In this paper we propose a consensus group decision making scheme under model uncertainty consisting of a two-stage procedure and based on the concept of Fr´echet barycenter. The first stage is a clustering procedure in the metric space of opinions leading to homogeneous groups, whereas the...

This paper analyzes the root cause of Ellsberg-type choices. This class of problems share the feature that at the time of the decision, t = m, the decision maker (DM) possesses partial information, Im, about the events/propositions of interest F: DM knows the objective probabilities of the...
