This paper examines the validity of the location invariance theorem in Weberian space under various types of uncertainty. The main results are: Given that the firm's location is constrained to remain at a specified distance from the output market, the optimal location is invariant to any change...

In this paper we employ a unifying approach to examine the exclusion theorem in a Weberian space under various types of uncertainty: input price or output price uncertainty, transport rate uncertainty, and technology uncertainty. The novelty of our approach is the usage of second-order...

This paper presents standard microeconomic models that are designed to be used in the cost-benefit analysis of local land use decisions. The models connect these allocation decisions to outcomes in the urban land and labor markets so that costs and benefits can be measured. Benefits to the local...

This paper reexamines the welfare implications of three pricing regimes (mill, uniform, and discriminatory) for a monopoly. Assuming linear demand and constant marginal costs, I show that with the introduction of endogenous location choice, uniform delivered pricing may provide the highest...

This paper departs from previous work on the locational effects of business taxes under uncertainty by considering the attainment of long-run industry equilibrium. A general "m" input, planar-space production location model is adopted, and each individual firm is assumed to face random industry...
