The interaction of various methods of mitigating economic and international double taxation of corporate source income is studied within a standard neoclassical model of firm behavior. The main purpose is to determine to what extent methods effective in mitigating economic double taxation in a...

The authors examine a variant of the uncapacitated lot-sizing model of Wagner-Within involving sales instead of fixed demands, and lower bounds on stocks. Two extended formulations are presented, as well as a dynamic programming algorithm and a complete description of the convex hull of solutions.

In this paper we offer the Gibbs sampler as an alternative estimator to the the GMM procedure used by berry, Levinsohn, and Pakes (1995) (henceforth BLP) in their equilibrium differentiated product market analysis of the automobile industry.

In a framework with an upstream monopoly and downstream duopoly, we analyze the impact of vertical integration when downstream firms have convex costs.

We study the effects of a change in some exogenous variable (the fixed cost or a parameter in the payoff functions) on the strategies played in a Symmetric Cournot Equilibrium with Free Entry (SCEFE). We also show that any observation on prices, profits and number of firms is compatible with the...

A lifetime portfolio of risky and risk-free sexual activities is conceptually constructed in this paper. People's time allocation between risky and risk-free sexual activities affects, and is affected by, the prevalence of AIDS. A small satisfaction differential between risky sex and risk-free...
