On the dynamic selection of mechanisms for provision of public projects

Article Abstract:

A dynamic model proved that the provision mechanism for a public project is itself the object of locational choice of individuals. Individuals of a certain society must select between a location using a Majority Rule method and one using a Voluntary Contribution method. The methods establish a funding decision for a local public project that is recounted overtime. The method with belief mutation creates an internationally absorbing condition in which the Majority Rule mechanism is the survivor of the the two.

Exit, selection, and the value of firms

Article Abstract:

A study was done to analyze a competitive dynamic model. The model is marked by firm level uncertainty and carries implications for firm values and Tobin's q ratio. Under entry and exit conditions, the model functions as an endogenous determinant of firm selection degree in the market. However, the equilibrium q ratio values change if technology and firm level uncertainty measurements change.
