We analyze exchange rate pass-through into U.S. import prices for 29 industries to address two questions. First, does the direction of a change in the exchange rate affect the degree of pass-through? Second, does the size of a change in the exchange rate matter for pass-through? We find that...

Using hedonic models, we analyze the effects of proximity and noise on housing prices in neighborhoods near Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport during 1995-2002. Proximity to the airport is related positively to housing prices. We address complications caused by changes over time in...

Using hedonic models, we analyze the effects of noise and proximity on housing prices in neighborhoods near Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport during 1995-2002. We address complications caused by changes over time in the levels and geographic distribution of noise and by the fact...

Despite the refrain that housing prices are determined by quot;location, location, and location,quot; no prior studies of airport noise and housing prices have incorporated spatial econometric techniques. We compare various spatial econometric models and estimation methods in a hedonic price...

A conditional logit model of the location decision of foreign firms investing in manufacturing facilities in the United States is developed and estimated. The authors results for 1981-83 indicate that states with higher per capita incomes and higher densities of manufacturing activity attracted...

With a view towards lessening the analytic and computational burden faced by practitioners seeking to correct the standard errors of two-stage estimators, we offer a heretofore unnoticed simplification of the conventional formulation for the most commonly encountered cases in empirical...
