Resolving the national debate on the affordability of health care is likely to turn, at least in part, on the question of how consumer demand for health insurance and health care services responds to changes in price or income. Estimates of responsiveness—measured as price and income elasticities—are often used to develop and analyze proposals to expand access to health insurance or constrain t...

Hurricanes Katrina and Rita caused severe economic disruptions without warning in Louisiana and surrounding areas. These natural disasters temporarily created production losses in the oil-industry and lead to further economic losses via inter-industry linkages. Because oil is a key resource in the national economy, estimation of the economic impacts of these disasters can be accomplished with a...

This paper uses supermarket scanner data to estimate brand- and packaging-specific own- and cross-price elasticities for beer. We find that brand- and packaging-specific beer sales are highly price elastic. Cross-price elasticity estimates suggest that individuals are more likely to buy a higher-volume package of the same brand of beer than they are to switch brands. Policy simulations suggest ...

Because women typically serve as primary care providers for their children, female labor force participation behavior is likely to be affected signiŽ cantly by the costs associated with replacing maternal care with nonmaternal care. While some evidence of this phenomenon exists in the economics literature, discrepancies across studies make it difficult to provide conclusive evidence of the empl...

I derive bounds on price elasticities in a dynamic model that is mis-specified due to optimization frictions such as adjustment costs or inattention. The bounds are a function of the observed effect of a price change on demand, the size of the price change, and the degree of frictions. I measure the degree of frictions by the utility losses agents tolerate to make choices that deviate from the ...

In recent years, calls for carbon taxes as a policy tool to combat global warming have kept a discussion of the price and income elasticities of gasoline demand alive. To date, gasoline demand elasticity estimates are almost exclusively based on aggregate data that are subject to aggregation problems and make distributional concerns impossible to address. By using Ž . household-level data from ...

This paper addresses the issue of price negotiation between a municipality and a private water utility operator, and its implications for residential water demand estimation. Because negotiated price may depend on municipality’s specific characteristics, competing forms of price endogeneity have to be considered when using panel data. The impact of variables such as average income, housing and ...
