Does The Minimum Wage Affect Welfare Caseloads?
Although minimum wages are advocated as a policy that will help the poor, few studies have examined their effect on poor families. This paper uses variation in minimum wages across states and over time to estimate the impact of minimum wage legislation on AFDC caseloads, thus directly assessing whether minimum wages benefit a group they are intended to help. We find that the elasticity of the w...
متن کاملthe interactions between minimum wage and inflation in iran’s economy
the minimum wage determination is one of the most significant economic issues exerting effects on macroeconomic variables. this study provides an empirical model using var method to analyze the long run relationships and short run dynamisms of factors affect general price level (with emphasis on minimum wage) during the period of 1978-2010. to examine long run relationships we used johansen-jus...
متن کاملCharacterization of efficient points of the production possibility set under variable returns to scale in DEA
We suggest a method for finding the non-dominated points of the production possibility set (PPS) with variable returns to scale (VRS) technology in data envelopment analysis (DEA). We present a multiobjective linear programming (MOLP) problem whose feasible region is the same as the PPS under variable returns to scale for generating non-dominated points. We demonstrate that Pareto solutions o...
متن کاملCreating Full Envelopment in Data Envelopment Analysis with Variable Returns to Scale Technology
In this paper, weak defining hyperplanes and the anchor points in DEA, as an important subset of the set of extreme efficient points of the Production Possibility Set (PPS), are used to construct unobserved DMUs and in the long run to improve the envelopment of all observed DMUs. There has been a surge of articles on improving envelopment in recent years. What has been done first is in Constant...
متن کاملTwo-stage Production Systems under Variable Returns to Scale Technology: A DEA Approach
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric approach for performance analysis of decision making units (DMUs) which uses a set of inputs to produce a set of outputs without the need to consider internal operations of each unit. In recent years, there have been various studies dealt with two-stage production systems, i.e. systems which consume some inputs in their first stage to produce ...
