The Welfare Cost inflation in Iran
The purpose of this paper is to estimate the welfare cost of inflation in Iran. We first use the long-horizon regression approach developed by Fisher and Seater (1993) to obtain an estimate of the inflation rate elasticity of money demand and then the Baily’s consumer surplus approach to calculate the welfare cost function. The results show that reducing inflation rate from 40% to 0% increases ...
متن کاملWelfare Cost of Medicare
This paper studies the welfare cost of Medicare system. A general equilibrium overlapping generations model with endogenous health accumulation is developed and calibrated to mimic the US economy. The quantitative results show that by eliminating Medicare, we actually obtain a welfare gain which is equivalent to a lump-sum increase in consumption to the agents at a magnitude of 5.1% of GDP. The...
متن کاملMarket forces meet behavioral biases: cost misallocation and irrational pricing
Psychological and experimental evidence, as well as a wealth of anecdotal examples, suggests that firms may confound fixed, sunk, and variable costs, leading to distorted pricing decisions. This article investigates the extent to which market forces and learning eventually eliminate these distortions. We envision firms that experiment with cost methodologies that are consistent with real-world ...
متن کاملThe Welfare Cost of Signaling
Might the resource costliness of making signals credible be low or negligible? Using a job market as an example, we build a signaling model to determine the extent to which a transfer from an applicant might replace a resource cost as an equilibrium method of achieving signal credibility. Should a firm’s announcement of hiring for an open position be believed, the firm has an incentive to use a...
