We develop a new quantile-based framework to study the nonlinear relationship between shocks to household earnings and consumption over the life cycle. Log-earnings are the sum of a general Markovian persistent component and a transitory innovation. Consumption is modeled as an age-dependent nonlinear function of assets and the two earnings components. We establish the nonparametric identificat...
This paper seeks to test the hypothesis that criminal background has a negative impact on earnings, using data on arrests from a national longitudinal survey on youth and delinquency. I estimate that having been arrested causes a reduction in annual earnings of 18 to 26 percent. I find some evidence that continued involvement in criminal activity is an important factor that influences the size ...
We develop a flexible framework to study the nonlinear relationship between shocks to household earnings and consumption over the life cycle. Log-earnings are the sum of a general Markovian persistent component and a transitory innovation. Consumption is modelled as an age-dependent nonlinear function of assets and the two earnings components. We establish the nonparametric identification of th...
This paper looks at longitudinal aspects of changes in Italian male earnings inequality since the late 1970s by decomposing the earnings autocovariance structure into its persistent and transitory parts. Cross-sectional earnings differentials are found to grow over the period. The longitudinal analysis shows that such growth is determined by the permanent earnings component and is due both to a...
Despite the large number of papers purporting to identify earnings management, the current techniques used to identify it are sorely lacking. In general, they are based on the assumption that accruals unexplained by a linear projection on firm-level observables (i.e., discretionary accruals) represent either explicit earnings management or poor quality earnings.1 Namely, these techniques assume...
Earnings Over the Lifecycle: The Mincer Earnings Function and Its Applications In 1958 Jacob Mincer pioneered an important approach to understand how earnings are distributed across the population. In the years since Mincer’s seminal work, he as well as his students and colleagues extended the original human capital model, reaching important conclusions about a whole array of observations perta...
Studies examining the association of housework with earnings have not tested for causal directionality despite competing theories about causal ordering. Autonomy theory, and the relative resources, gender display, and gender deviance neutralization hypotheses suggest personal and relative earnings affect time in housework while human capital theory implies the opposite. Using data from N = 3,71...
Dichev and Tang (2008) (this issue) document the incremental predictive power of past earnings volatility for the persistence of current earnings. We revisit their findings by allowing for several theoretically motivated factors (firm size, earnings growth, and the extent of managerial accounting discretion as detected by abnormal accruals) in order to verify the robustness of this effect. We a...
Among agricultural products in Iran, pistachio is one of the major export products that can produce foreign currency. The present study evaluated factors affecting pistachio export earnings instability and its effect on agricultural export during the studied period. For this purpose, export earnings instability index was calculated using "average absolute difference between export earnings and ...
Significant changes in mean and median analysts’ forecasts errors documented in recent studies are not synchronized across commercial forecast databases over time and are, in large part, a function of the definitions and procedures that determine the reported earnings component of earnings surprises. In this study we describe a number of complications researchers face in drawing inferences from...
