This paper investigates the costs of residential height restrictions, using a numerically solvable general equilibrium model based on residential location theory. Time and money costs of travel are treated separately. Household demand recreational land and structure and actual construction cost...

This paper uses a general equilibrium model of residential land use to study the effects of the property tax in a closed city. Two different specifications of the production technology for housing are used, and yield similar results. The model is too complicated to be solved in closed form, but...

This paper deals with the cost-benefit valuation of urban land in residential and road use, when there is flow congestion in transportation and congestion tolls are not imposed. Conventional procedures for determining the shadow value of land in road or residential use ignore certain general...

We develop a new form of the information matrix test for a wide variety of statistical models, and present full details for the special case of univariate nonlinear regression models. Chesher (1984) showed that the implicit alternative of the information matrix test is a model with random...

The cluster robust variance estimator (CRVE) relies on the number of clusters being large. A shorthand "rule of 42'' has emerged, but we show that unbalanced clusters invalidate it. Monte Carlo evidence suggests that rejection frequencies are higher for datasets with 50 clusters proportional to...

Confidence intervals based on cluster-robust covariance matrices can be constructed in many ways. In addition to conventional intervals obtained by inverting Wald (t) tests, the paper studies intervals obtained by inverting LM tests, studentized bootstrap intervals based on the wild cluster...

In a recent paper, Plosser, Schwert and White (1982) proposed a general test for model misspecification based on a comparison of estimates of the model in levels and first-differences. We demonstrate that this test is equivalent to a certain F test for omitted variables. The latter test has...
