The authors present a Web application they designed in the R programming language as an experiential learning tool for teaching production theory. app simulates decisions where manager is tasked to find optimal mixture of inputs through experimentation. Users are instructed use calculations and intuitions from theory improve profitability quickly. underlying parameters starting points randomized allow additional practice. Variations exercise correspond cost-minimization profit-maximization...
The relatively small panel cointegration literature on the dynamics between FDI and income inequality predominantly finds that will reduce in long-run developed countries. However, we point out an important technical oversight literature. Not accounting for cross-section dependence data methodologies may yield unreliable results. Expanding work of Herzer Nunnenkamp [(2013). Inward outward inequality: Evidence from Europe. Review World Economics, 149(2), 395–422....
<p>Although water is considered essential to life and an important natural resource, disadvantaged communities, such as low-income minority are disproportionately burdened by lead exposure in drinking water. In this paper, we highlight case studies that have received national press coverage well recent examples of community poisoning hazards still ongoing across various regions the US. We show through these three Flint, Michigan, Washington, D.C., Birmingham, Alabama, severity...

In this paper, we study the influence exerted by a state's 'neighbours' in determining its COVID-19 policy stringency. addition to traditional geographic neighbours, also consider political neighbours (i.e. states related affiliation of their governors). By employing Spatial Durbin Model on panel 48 contiguous US and Washington DC over 61 biweekly time periods, find evidence for both endogenous exogenous spillover effects. Our results suggest that geography politics represent significant...
Frank (2009) constructed a comprehensive panel of state‐level income inequality measures using individual tax filing data from the Internal Revenue Service. Employing an array cointegration exercises for data, he reported positive long‐run relationship between and real per capita in United States. This article questions validity his findings. First, we suggest misspecification problem approach regarding order integration index, which shows evidence nonstationarity only post‐1980 data....
Abstract Alcohol use is a major public health problem in Bhutan. Compliance with regulations at point of sales an important strategy alcohol control. Retail outlets were briefed on and provided notification rules directed to display the premises. The extent which licensed responded possible purchase was assessed through young proxy‐purchasers, adults feigning intoxicated sober adults. A total 854 visits (pre versus post visits) made across four district towns. Two towns (Damphu town Tsirang...
