This paper introduces a quantile regression estimator for panel data (QRPD) with nonadditive fixed effects, maintaining the nonseparable disturbance term commonly associated with quantile estimation. QRPD estimates the impact of exogenous or endogenous treatment variables on the outcome distribution using ``within" variation in the treatment variables or instruments for identification purposes. Most quantile panel data estimators include additive fixed effects which separates the disturbance term and assumes the parameters vary based only on the time-varying components of the disturbance term. QRPD is consistent for small T and straightforward to implement. The nonadditive fixed effects are never estimated or even specified. …
Does Labor Supply Respond To Transitory Income? Evidence From The Economic Stimulus Payments Of 2008, David Powell
Does Labor Supply Respond To Transitory Income? Evidence From The Economic Stimulus Payments Of 2008, David Powell
David Powell
Tax policy is often used to encourage consumer spending in recessions and a growing literature finds evidence that households increase short-term spending in response to receipt of tax rebates. The literature has largely ignored the effect on labor supply as rebates may crowd out labor earnings and households may consume additional leisure. The responsiveness of labor supply to transitory income has been underexplored more broadly so it is difficult to predict this labor supply effect. I exploit the randomized timing of the 2008 economic stimulus payments to study the effects of transitory income on monthly household labor earnings. Rebates can …
