Bayesian demographic modeling and forecasting: An application to U.S. mortality

Reichmuth, Wolfgang H.; Sarferaz, Samad - 2008

We present a new way to model age-specific demographic variables with the example of age-specific mortality in the U … jointly with the latent variables underlying mortality of all age classes. In contrast to previous models, a similar … forecasts for particular age classes. A structural analysis of the relationship between age-specific mortality and covariates is …

The demographic transition: Causes and consequences

Galor, Oded - 2012

This paper develops the theoretical foundations and the testable implications of the various mechanisms that have been proposed as possible triggers for the demographic transition. Moreover, it examines the empirical validity of each of the theories and their significance for the understanding...

On the policy implications of changing longevity

Pestieau, Pierre; Ponthiere, Grégory - 2012

Our societies are witnessing a steady increase in longevity. This demographic evolution is accompanied by some convergence across countries, whereas substantial longevity inequalities persist within nations. The goal of this paper is to survey some crucial implications of changing longevity on...

Who Creates Jobs? Estimating Job Creation Rates at the Firm Level

Huber, Peter; Oberhofer, Harald; Pfaffermayr, Michael - 2012

This paper shows that applying simple employment-weighted OLS estimation to Davis - Haltiwanger - Schuh (1996) firm level job creation rates taking the values 2 and -2 for entering and exiting firms, respectively, provides biased and inconsistent parameter estimates. Consequently, we argue that...

Group taxation, asymmetric taxation and cross-border investment incentives in Austria

Niemann, Rainer; Treisch, Corinna - 2005

In 2005, Austria modified its group taxation regime and now provides an option for crossborder loss-offset. We analyse the combined impact of Austria's new group taxation and lossoffset limitations on cross-border investment decisions of domestic corporations. Monte Carlo simulations in an...
