Sovereignty Conditions And Governance Modes: An Option Theory Approach, John A. Carlson Jan 1995

Sovereignty Conditions And Governance Modes: An Option Theory Approach, John A. Carlson

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

This study extends previous work which has examined governance decisions using option theory. In particular, it evaluates the contribution of option theory in both domestic and international environments. Empirical results from a multinomial logit model suggest that the influence of option value differs across segments.


Money Growth Variability And The Term Structure Of Interest In Japan, Gerald J. Lynch, Bradley T. Ewing Jan 1995

Money Growth Variability And The Term Structure Of Interest In Japan, Gerald J. Lynch, Bradley T. Ewing

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

The hypothesis of this paper is that uncertain moeny growth leads to an increased yield spread between short term and long term interest rates. Since current inflation is obviously the same at any given time, the change in the term structure can be explained, in part, by the greater degree of uncertainty in the long term caused by monetary uncertainty. This hypothesis is tested by looking at the spread between short term and long term instruments in Japan and determining if increased monetary instability leads to a wider yield spread. We find that a rise in monetary uncertainty is associated …


Whither Flat Panel Displays?, Kala Krishna, Marie Thursby Jan 1995

Whither Flat Panel Displays?, Kala Krishna, Marie Thursby

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

The paper examines possible consequences of subsidies to R&D and to volume production proposed under the Clinton administration's flat panel display initiative. We do this in the context of a model in which firms behave competitively in the short run, while realizing that their choices of capacity and yield-improving R&D in the medium and long run will affect market price.


Monetary Coordination, Fixed Exchange Rates And Noisy Markets, John A. Carlson, Dong-Geun Han Jan 1995

Monetary Coordination, Fixed Exchange Rates And Noisy Markets, John A. Carlson, Dong-Geun Han

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

With common global shocks, a leader-follower fixed-exchange-rate regime improves on a non-cooperative flexible-rate regime when the spillover effects from each country;s money supply to the other country's output are symmetric. However, small exchange market shocks, from random capital flows, may undermine the incentives for either country to be the follower. Furthermore, a regime in which exchange rates are fixed when transitory exchange-market shocks are small and flexible with larger shock always dominates a flexible-rate regime, in marked contrast to (credible) target-zone models that call for pegged rates only at upper or lower bounds in response to large shocks.


Can Barriers To Trade Make A Differential?, Jon D. Haveman Jan 1995

Can Barriers To Trade Make A Differential?, Jon D. Haveman

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

Within the purview of economics, there are a number of phenomena that remain unexplained. One such phenomenon is the existence of inter-industry wage differentials; differences in wages paid to observationally equivalent workers. This paper investigates the link between the degree of international competition in an industry and the premium paid to workers in that industry. The rationale for this connection lies in the hypothesis that the source of the observed wage premium arises from the sharing of rents with workers in profitable industries. International competition serves to reduce the market power of firms in the industry reducing the existence of …

Characterization Of Photon Recycling In Thin Crystalline Gaas Light Emitting Diodes, M. P. Patkar, M. S. Lundstrom, Michael R. Melloch Jan 1995

Characterization Of Photon Recycling In Thin Crystalline Gaas Light Emitting Diodes, M. P. Patkar, M. S. Lundstrom, Michael R. Melloch

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Gallium arsenide light emitting diodes (LEDs) were fabricated using molecular beam epitaxial films on GaAs substrates and removed by epitaxial lift-off (ELO). Lifted off devices were then mounted on a Si wafer using a Pd/Au/Cr contact layer, which also served as a back surface reflector. Devices were characterized by electrical and optical measurements, and the results for devices on the GaAs substrate were compared to those for EL0 devices. EL0 LEDs coated with a ZnS/MgF2 antireflection coating exhibited an optical output that was up to six times that of LEDs on GaAs substrates. At the same time, the measured current-voltage …

Abbe Francois Gaultier: Secret Envoy, E. Stewart Saunders Jan 1995

Abbe Francois Gaultier: Secret Envoy, E. Stewart Saunders

Libraries Research Publications

The plenipotentiaries of the warring nations met in the Dutch town of Utrecht in 1712 to begin peace negotiations that would end the war of the Spanish Succession. The French had contacted England many years prior to this date in hopes of moving along an end to the war. The Abbe Francois Gaultier was their principle agent in the many secret negotiations that preceded the final negotiations at Utrecht.


Nicolas Mesnager: Trade Negotiator, E. Stewart Saunders Jan 1995

Nicolas Mesnager: Trade Negotiator, E. Stewart Saunders

Libraries Research Publications

The war of the Spanish Succession was as much about trade in the Spanish colonies as it was about the succession to the Spanish throne. Nicolas Mesnager negotiated for France the trade issues that had to be settled in order to end the war of the Spanish Succession.
