Flexible Labor Supply Models

چکیده
Flexible Labor Supply Models Discrete-choice models of labor supply have become very popular for ex ante evaluations of policy reforms as they easily account for non-convex budget sets. We test the constraints imposed in practice on these models and suggest a fully flexible model that significantly improves fit. JEL Classification: H31, J22

Tax reform analysis using flexible models of labor supply.∗
Discrete-choice labor supply models are extensively used for ex-ante evaluation of current or topical tax-benefit reforms (e.g. Van Soest, 1995, Hoynes, 1996 or Blundell et al., 2001, among others). Indeed, they provide a computationally tractable way to represent utility-maximizing labor supply decisions in the presence of highly nonlinear and possibly nonconvex budget sets. In the present pap...
متن کاملBusiness Cycles , Wage Stickiness and Labor Market Disequilibrium
Real Business Cycles are often studied in the context of the general equlibrium framework with competitive markets, flexible wages and prices. This restricts the effective application of intertemporal models to the real world business cycles. Stickiness of wages and prices have been considered in recent monopolistic competition models. In this paper, we go a step further and separate labor supp...

متن کاملA multi-parametric approach for solid transportation problem with uncertainty fuzzy flexible conditions
The most convenient models of Solid Transportation (ST) problems have been justly considered a kind of uncertainty in their parameters such as fuzzy, grey, stochastic, etc. and usually, they suggest solving the main problems by solving some crisp equivalent model/models based on their proposed approach such as using ranking functions, embedding problems etc. Furthermore, there exist some shortc...

Nowadays, managing a supply chain is turned to be one of the fundamentals of business process. In doing so, investigating and analyzing each and every of the processes and selecting the best of each process is an important challenge for strategic managers. In this paper Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) technique is used and a model is provided for selecting the best suppliers with flexible inpu...
