Methods for Measuring Aggregate Costs of Conflict

This paper reviews the methods for measuring the economic cost of conflict. Estimating the economic costs of conflict requires a counterfactual calculation, which makes this a very difficult task. Social researchers have resorted to different estimation methods depending on the particular effect in question. The method used in each case depends on the units being analyzed (firms, sectors, regio...

Costs of Aggregate Hydrocarbon Reserve Additions

Introduction. Typically, investment in petroleum exploration and development yields a joint product: reserves of oil and natural gas. The reserve additions are separable, but the expenditures generating reserve additions cannot be neatly partitioned between the two hydrocarbon sources.

An Integrated Aggregate Production Planning Model with Two-Phase Production System and Maintenance Costs

Aggregate production planning (APP) is one of the most important issues carried out in manufacturing environments which seeks efficient planning, scheduling and coordination of all production activities that optimizes the company's objectives. In this paper, we develop a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for an integrated aggregate production planning system with closed loop supply ...

Land Rents

We study the technological pre-conditions for competitive equilibrium in a multisectoral economy where“land” is an essential imput. Earlier results by Bidard and Salvadori require either very low interest rates or are unable to predict the type of final demand vectors that can be supported by an equilibrium. We extend these earlier results and show that a given level and structure of final dema...
