they demonstrate the substitution effect. Cheaper labor in a different country or hiring a third party results in a drop in costs. This yields a positive result for the corporation but a negative effect for the
The study finds that the policy reduces the labor income share through both the factor substitution effect and the strengthening of corporate monopoly power. Heterogeneity analysis indicates that the income distribution effects of the reform are more pronounced in large-scale enterprises, firms with ...
After Iraq invaded Kuwait, gasoline prices rose dramatically- up to 50 percent. There were many effects of the increased price of gasoline. Explain the following effect in terms of the income effect, substitution effect, or both effects. People had more t ...
The fourth-most-important factor driving the increase in capital share of income appears to relate to a substitution of capital for labor through factors including decreasing technology prices and better capabilities of machines. We estimate that this effect accounts for 12 ...

If too many of the working poor succumbed to thisincome effectand thissubstitution effect, the swelling number of needy with income below the threshold and eligible for NIT refundable credits would make total negative income...

For instance, Schaller (2016) used a Bartik style industry shift-share instrument and found that improvements in women’s labor market conditions are negatively correlated with birth rates at the state level, but the effect is small and not always significantly different from zero. Incorporating ...
In turn, this provides a natural base to examine in Section 5 the effect of changes in income risk associated with a transition from the Markov chains computed from the BHPS data to those computed from the WAS data. This is explained in more detail in Section 5. The model parameters that...
1). The first layer nests labor, capital, and intermediate inputs using the CES (constant elasticity of substitution) function. The second layer includes the capital-labor synthesis, which is synthesized via the Cobb-Douglas (CD) function, and also incorporates the synthesis of energy sub-...
The effects of trade cost reductions on the skill premium also differ when preferences are non-homothetic and when income-elastic goods are more skill intensive: the net skilled-labor content of trade and the effect of trade-driven income growth are both different under these conditions. To ...
