This permits to solve the cases classified as ambiguous in the existing literature and provides clear …-cut conditions which are important for modelling and empirical research. Furthermore, the results are interpreted with respect to …

The Constant Elasticity of Substitution (CES) function is popular in several areas of economics, but it is rarely used … existing approaches and propose a new grid-search approach for estimating the traditional CES function with two inputs as well … as nested CES functions with three and four inputs. Furthermore, we demonstrate how these approaches can be applied in R …

We argue against the use of composite indices, such as the Human Development Index (HDI), in economic history. We show … where both data and history play a minor role, if any. …

We characterize intertemporal utility functions over heterogeneous goods that feature (i) a constant elasticity of substitution between goods at each point in time and (ii) a constant intertemporal elasticity of substitution for at least one of the goods. We find that a standard (stationary)...

The constant elasticity of substitution (CES) function is widely used to model distributional preferences in modified … applications. We constructed a model to address this issue by combining two formulations of the CES function. We demonstrated that … interpretations of the standard CES function parameters for describing distributional preferences are inappropriate. Notably, "the …

Disasters are bad for business specifically for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). These catastrophic events can compromise capital, logistics, product market, and labor, which compromise business continuity and recovery. Physical damage and disruptions in supply and labor can cause temporary...
