First Order Autoregressive Processes And Strong Mixing, Donald W.K. Andrews

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

A sufficient condition is given such that first-order autoregressive processes are stong mixing. The condition is specified in terms of the univariate distribution of the independent identically distributed innovation random variables. Normal, exponential, uniform, Cauchy, and many other continuous innovation random variables are shown to satisfy the condition. In addition, an example of a first-order autoregressive process which is not strong mixing is given. This process has Bernoulli (p) innovation random variables and any autoregressive parameter in (0, 1/2).

Monetary Development During The First Quarter Of 1983, Central Bank Of Nigeria Cbn

Economic and Financial Review

The main factors responsible for the decline in money supply in the first quarter of 1983 were the decline of Nl,799.0 million or 29.6 per cent in other assets (net) of the banking system ( or an equivalent increase in their other liabilities), a fall of N212.8 million or 19.9 per cent in net foreign assets and an increase of N97 .0 million or 1.4 per cent in quasi-money. The contractionary impacts of these three factors more than offset the expansionary effects of an increase ofNl,391.0 million or 6.3 per cent in bank credit to the economy.

Plan Of Study For Cross Florida Barge Canal: Economic Analysis, United States. Army. Corps Of Engineers. Jacksonville District

Correspondence and Textual Material

At the time of the previous study of transportation savings, commerce in coal primarily for electric power generation could not be ·projected with any degree of accuracy because most electric utilities had not developed firm plans for building new coal-fired plants· or for converting from petroleum products or natural gas to coal at existing plants. Today, with plants already constructed that will burn coal, there is a greater probability of defining coal needs. So there is a need to reevaluate potential coal traffic via the CFBC. Also there is a need to evaluate the other types of benefits mentioned under …

The Exact Distribution Of Liml: Ii, Peter C.B. Phillips

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

This paper derives the exact probability density function of the limited information maximum likelihood (LIML) estimator of the coefficient vector of the endogenous variables in a structural equation containing n + 1 endogenous variables and L ≥ 1 degrees of overidentification. This generalizes the presently known results for the two endogenous variable case (n + 1 = 2) and the leading case analyses in the author’s earlier paper (1982). Upon appropriate symbolic translation the results may be applied directly to the maximum likelihood estimator in the multivariate linear functional relationship.

Monetary Policies With Increasing Returns, Graciela Chichilnisky, Geoffrey M. Heal

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

The paper studies a two-sector monetary economy with two factors of production, labor and capital. The industrial sector has increasing returns to scale, the consumption sector non-increasing returns. All firms maximize profits and markets clear. For each rate of return on capital the model reaches a general equilibrium with an associated demand for money. A monetary policy is a quantity of money supplied. We prove that restrictive monetary policies decrease the level of operation and profits of the increasing returns to scale sector and eventually force it to operate with negative profits, so that it must close down. The other …

The Economic Impact Of Workers' Compensation And Unemployment Insurance Programs On Small Business, University Of New Mexico Bureau Of Business And Economic Research

BBER Publications

This report examines the financial impact of workers' compensation and unemployment insurance programs on small and newly established businesses. Based on a survey of 1,194 firms across seven states, the study concludes that a distinct cost and utilization bias exists against small firms in workers' compensation programs. Specifically, smaller and newer businesses pay a significantly higher percentage of their payroll in premiums despite their employees making far less relative use of the program compared to larger, often self-insured corporations.

The Economic Impact Of Workers' Compensation And Unemployment Insurance Programs On Small Business, University Of New Mexico Bureau Of Business And Economic Research

BBER Publications

This report evaluates the dual macroeconomic impacts of state-administered workers' compensation and unemployment insurance programs on small and newly established businesses. Utilizing empirical mail-survey data gathered from 1,194 large and small firms across seven distinct states, the study reveals an inequitable financial premium burden and lower program utilization rates facing smaller employers under workers' compensation frameworks, while demonstrating that the relative financial and administrative impacts under unemployment insurance structures are comparatively balanced.
