A Quarterly Income Tax Revenue Forecasting Model For The City Of Fairborn Ohio, Mark Thomas Fraley

Masters Culminating Experiences (1993-2011)

The Fairborn econometric income tax revenue forecasting model developed establishes a connection between conditions in the local, regional, and national economy and the variance of income tax collections.

In the model, variation in the predictor variables account for 97% of the variation in income tax collections. Several statistical tests were conducted on the model to insure efficient and unbiased results.

Getting Domestic Technology Transfer On Track, Donovan O'Neil Robinson

Masters Culminating Experiences (1993-2011)

The confluence of the recession and end of the Cold War has brought the issue of technology transfer to the forefront of national debate. Each of these significant events is challenging by itself but together they are greater than the sum of the parts. At the center of technology transfer debate is the U.S. laboratory system. A de-emphasis on defense related R&D coupled with a move toward commercial applications is the predominant policy choice to strengthen America’s international competitiveness. This paper examines technology transfer from the Department of Energy to the private sector as reported in "Fossil Energy: From Laboratory …

Symmetric Noncooperative Models Of Innovation: A Simulation Study, Noel Mckinney

Masters Culminating Experiences (1993-2011)

This paper examines two symmetric noncooperative models of innovation: the model by Loury (1979) and the model by Lee and Wilde (1980). In the Loury model, investment in research and development is treated as an "up front" expenditure, while in the Lee and Wilde model the investment in research and development is treated as an ongoing expenditure flow that occurs throughout the research and development process. The effect that rivalry from competing firms has on the research and development investment of a given firm is studied through simulations using the two models. The simulations show that the relationship between research …

Exchange Rate And Income Effects On South Korean Exports: The Us Case, Heather M. O'Neill, William Ross

Business and Economics Faculty Publications

This paper analyzes econometrically the effects of direct and cross exchange rates as well as US income and Korean supply developments on the volume of Korean exports to the US. The results suggest that US demand has been the most important factor in the growth of Korean exports to the US in recent years. However, direct exchange rate effects are also important; the estimates suggest that for 1989-90, a yearly 10% real appreciation of the won against the dollar would have lowered export volume by about 10% per year relative to a baseline case. Cross exchange rate effects run counter …

Although the study recognizes that rural infrastucture is a public good, several cases are cited to show that private sector initiatives in the provision of rural infrastructural facilites and services can be successful.

Bautista, R.M. "Agricultural Growth As A Development Strategy." Economic Impact No. 66 Pp. 24-28 1989, L. I. Odey

Economic and Financial Review

In this paper, the author attempts a further exposition on the on-going debate on the feasibility of adoption of an export-led strategy of economic development which considers" Agriculture- first" as the engine of growth. The au~or strongly supports an agricultural-based development strategy because it is capable of generating mass employment, it is anti-poverty as well as being an hl.come redistribution programme. This strategy, he reasons, should be particularly appealing to countries with a heavy debt service burden since it is a foreign-exchange conserving programme given the lowerimporrrequirements of agricultural growth and itslinka,geeffectscompared with those of industry-led import substitution strategy.
