On Mandatory Deposits, Fines, And The Control Of Litter, Dwight R. Lee, Philip E. Graves, Robert L. Sexton Jan 1988

On Mandatory Deposits, Fines, And The Control Of Litter, Dwight R. Lee, Philip E. Graves, Robert L. Sexton

PHILIP E GRAVES

Mandatory deposits on beverage containers have received enthusiastic support among environmentalists as a means of controlling litter. In modeling the fficts of a deposit on litter generation and recovery it is found that this enthusiasm is well iustified. Interestingly enough, few supporters of deposits seem to realize how justified their support is, as evidenced by their lack of enthusiasm for eliminating the littering fine which serves to dilute the effectiveness of the deposit. The most efficient solution possible when a fine is combined with a deposit is shown to require less littering, but more litter, than is an efficient solution …

Morbidity And Pollution, Ronald J. Krumm, Philip E. Graves Jan 1982

Morbidity And Pollution, Ronald J. Krumm, Philip E. Graves

PHILIP E GRAVES

Time-series analysis of effects of pollutants on emergency hospital admissions indicates important synergistic interactions among pollutants and to a lesser degree nonlinearities in effects of single pollutants. Comparisons of alternative econometric specifications are made to determine the appropriateness of incorporating nonuniform pollution impacts. The data substantially support the existence of synergisms among pollutants with high levels of sulfur dioxide, SO, (particulates), increasing the impact of particulates (SO,) on emergency hospital admissions. Marginal effects of either pollutant are, however, small at current ambient air quality levels. These results indicate that damage estimates were likely to be understated during the 1960’s when …

The Velocity Of Money: Evidence For The U.K. 1911-1966, Philip E. Graves Jan 1980

The Velocity Of Money: Evidence For The U.K. 1911-1966, Philip E. Graves

PHILIP E GRAVES

This paper presents secular evidence on the income velocity of money, exploring the issue of the superiority of money balances. Under a variety of specifications and statistical techniques, employed on both traditional and non-traditional variables, the Friedman assertion that money is a superior good is found to lack empirical support. Indeed, income elasticities of demand for M2 balances of .3 to .45 are observed, elasticities much smaller than previously thought.

New Evidence On Income And The Velocity Of Money, Philip E. Graves Jan 1978

New Evidence On Income And The Velocity Of Money, Philip E. Graves

PHILIP E GRAVES

Time series and cross-country empirical results suggest that cash holding as a proportion of income rises, or equivalently that velocity falls, as income increases. Numerous cross-sectional findings at many points in time, in several countries, conclude oppositely. It is argued here that the former studies suffer from omitted variable bias by ignoring socio-demographic variables affecting the demand for cash balances. When one incorporates such demand shifters into the analysis the time series and cross-country findings are seen as consistent with the critically reexamined cross-sectional result that velocity increases with income.
