Moraga-González, José Luis; Viaene, Jean-Marie - 2004

Anti-dumping actions are now the trade policy of choice of developing and transition economies. To understand why these economies have increasingly applied anti-dumping laws, we build a simple theoretical model of vertical intra-industry trade and investigate the strategic incentives of...

A branch and price algorithm for the multi-period single-sourcing problem

Freling, Richard; Romeijn, H. Edwin; Romero Morales, … - 1999

In this paper we propose a Branch and Price algorithm for solving multi-periodsingle-sourcing problems. In particular, we generalize a Branch and Price algorithm thatwas developed for the Generalized Assignment Problem (GAP) to a class of convexassignment problems. We then identify an important...

The transaction costs perspective on costs and benefits of government regulation

Butter, Frank A. G. den; Graaf, Marc de; Nijsen, André F. - 2009

This paper explores the feasibility to extend the Standard Cost Model (SCM) for calculating the costs of government … regulation by taking all transaction costs into account which stem from the principal/agent relationship between regulatory … authorities and economic entities. From that perspective these transaction costs do not only relate to the bonding costs of the …
