We consider firms combining variable inputs and heterogeneous capital goods. Input use may cause simultaneous flow and stock externalities (e.g., air pollution/ climate change). Regulatory bodies typically develop separate policies for each externality but do not recognize that many...

In this paper we present a classroom exercise where students can solve the basic two-period consumer choice model using the Excel-Solver, and explore the main features of the model. We also include a static comparative analysis and a borrowing constraint in the optimization problem

This paper presents a framework to determine optimal resource allocation over time for the production of a good by heterogeneous producers who generate a stock externality. We analyze the optimal intertemporal and quality-specific combination of abatement strategies at the source given by a...

With the development of modern information technologies, relying on nanotechnologies and remote sensing, a number of systems can be envisaged that allow for monitoring of the negative externalities generated by producers, consumers or travelers - road pricing schemes or individual emission...

With the development of modern information technologies, relying on nanotechnologies and remote sensing, a number of systems can be envisaged that allow for monitoring of the negative externalities generated by producers, consumers or travelers—road pricing schemes or individual emission...

Predicted increases in CO2 concentrations will affect forest ecosystems. In particular, they will impact tree growth, which in turn affects reproduction and mortality and consequently, forest planning. This study integrates different climate change scenarios of future biogeochemical processes...

This paper presents a theoretical model to find the optimal selective-logging regime of a size-distributed forest. The law of motion of the economic model is governed by a partial differential equation that describes the evolution of the forest stock over time. To find the solution of the...
