Capital Taxation, Growth, and Non-renewable Resources

The conventional view within the endogenous growth literature is that interest income taxes impede economic growth and investment subsidies promote economic growth. The present paper lays out a simple framework to see whether this is still true when non-renewable resources enter the ”growth engine” in an essential way. It is not! The framework allows a rich set of determinants of longrun growth...

On the Economics of Non-Renewable Resources

This paper presents an overview of the key economic results associated with the use of non-renewable resources. The basic Hotelling model of resource depletion is discussed, followed by several extensions. The fundamental result is that scarcity rent rises at the discount rate, and that at equilibrium, marginal benefits from extraction must equal the marginal economic cost. If marginal extracti...

Energy Sources: Non Renewable and Renewable

Investigating the effect of renewable and non-renewable energy consumption on social welfare in developing Asian countries: Quantile regression approach

Energy as one of the factors of production along with labor and capital has an important role in development and social welfare. Due to the pollution of non-renewable resources and its negative impact on welfare, the use of renewable resources can improve social welfare by eliminating pollutants. In this study, the effect of renewable and non-renewable energy consumption on social welfare of de...

Renewable natural resources include those resources useful to human economies that exhibit growth, maintenance, and recovery from exploitation over an economic planning horizon. The economics of such resources has traditionally considered stocks of fish, forests, or freshwater, much like a banker would tally interest on cash deposits. From an economic point of view, the management of biomass, s...
