IMPLAN's induced effects identified through multiplier decomposition

Article Abstract:

An analysis of IMPLAN's use as an estimator of regional economic impact reveals that structural flaws exist when IMPLAN is used with regional multipliers. The study points out the IMPLAN's 'type III' income multipliers are inversely related to average wages and that the 'type III' output is not affected by wages thus necessitating a need for income multipliers to be decomposed before use and a description of how multipliers are computed be published with the product.

Intervening opportunities, competing searchers and the intrametropolitan flow of male youth labor

Article Abstract:

A survey of factors influencing adolescent male employment in urban areas reveals that controlling for intervening opportunities and the intervening labor supply between a given origin and destination reduces by 90% the negative effect of distance on the interzonal flow of labor. However, the study points out that intervening competing workers and intervening opportunities have sizeable, independent effects on labor flows despite the high correlation between them.

Optimal environmental policies for sustainable growth: a two-region model

Article Abstract:

A model describing the economic growth of adjacent economies and their attending environmental effects showed that an optimal environmental policy based on the aid provided by the advanced economy on the developing economy is due to the trajectories of the welfare index. Such trajectories of the welfare index of the advanced economy is described as single-peaked with a long duration of growth.
