On Sunk Costs and Trade Liberalization in Applied General Equilibrium
We argue that the rationalization gains often predicted by static applied general equilibrium models with imperfect competition and scale economies are arti ̄cially boosted by an unrealistic treatment of ̄xed costs. We introduce sunk costs into one such model calibrated with real-world data. We show how this changes the oligopoly game in a way signi ̄cant enough to a®ect, both qualitatively and q...
متن کاملMonetary general equilibrium with transaction costs
Commodity money arises endogenously in a general equilibrium model with separate budget constraints for each transaction. Transaction costs imply differing bid and ask (selling and buying) prices. The most liquid good—with the smallest proportionate bid/ask spread—becomes commodity money. General equilibrium may not be Pareto efficient. If zero-transaction-cost money is available then the equil...
متن کاملTrade, Technology, and Wages: General Equilibrium Mechanics
This paper highlights analytical reasons why we believe trade and technology are linked to wage movements in general, and how we should organize our examination of the recent episode of wage and employment erosion in the OECD countries. We start with a graphic tour through the mechanics of general equilibrium theory on trade and wages. This provides a set of implied relationships between wages ...
متن کاملFuzzy Transportation Problem with Random Transportation Costs
We consider the following transportation problem with both random and fuzzy factors. There exist m supply points and n demand points. For each route between supply point and demand point, unit transportation cost is a random variable according to a normal distribution and existence possibility denoting the preference choosing this route is attached. The probability that the total transportation...
متن کاملModelling Transport in an Interregional General Equilibrium Model with Externalities
In this working paper the regional impacts of road pricing on cars are analysed taking into account externality effects from transportation on wages and productivity. In the paper the direct impacts from changes in transport costs on level of wages and productivity (=direct externality effects) have been estimated. The direct and derived impacts of road pricing have been analysed with AKF's loc...
