The Hypothetical Household Tool (HHoT) in EUROMOD : a new instrument for comparative research on tax-benefit policies in Europe
Hufkens, Tine; Goedemé, Tim; Gasior, Katrin; Leventi, … - 2019
This paper introduces the Hypothetical Household Tool (HHoT), a new extension of EUROMOD, the tax-benefit microsimulation model for the European Union. With HHoT, users can easily create their own hypothetical data, which enables them to better understand how policies work for households with...

Rich meets poor : an international fairness experiment
Cappelen, Alexander W.; Moene, Karl Ove; Sørensen, Erik Ø. - 2008
Why do people in rich countries not transfer more of their income to people in the world's poorest countries? To study this question and the relative importance of needs, entitlements, and nationality in people's social preferences, we conducted a real effort fairness experiment where people in...

Standard and Shuffled Halton Sequences in a Mixed Logit Model
Staus, Alexander - 2008
. Simulation methods have been developed to approximate a solution for these integrals. This paper describes the Standard Halton … sequence and a modification of it, the Shuffled Halton sequence. Both are simulation methods which can reduce computational … effort compared to a random sequence. We compare the simulation methods in their coverage of the multi-dimensional area and …

Analytical Prediction of Transitions Probabilities in the Conditional Logit Model
Bonin, Holger; Schneider, Hilmar - 2004
The paper derives analytical transitions probabilities following an exogenous shock to the deterministic component in the conditional logit model. The solution draws on the postestimation distribution of the models stochastic component, identified on the basis of a direct utility maximization...

Endogenizing take-up of social assistance in a microsimulation model : a case study for Germany
Wiemers, Jürgen - 2015
Microsimulation studies typically assume that all entitlements to means-tested benefits are actually claimed by eligible households, despite a large body of research that suggests that take-up rates are substantially below 100%. The assumption of full take-up tends to exaggerate the simulated...
