abstract by using cross-section data which gathered through a survey research in mashhad ,contingent valuation approach and tobit model this study tries to determine economical value of air pollution and effective factors on wtp. based on contingent valuation approach, air pollution total value of airpollution in high-polluted region equals 7134146560 rials per month and in middle-polluted regi...

One of the difficult challenges facing management and researchers today is how to justify costly investments in information technology (IT). This paper presents an approach to investigating the effects of IT on technical efficiency in a firm’s production process through a two-stage analytical study with a firm-level data set. In the first stage, a nonparametric frontier method of data envelopme...

Intellectual capital (IC) relevant information is an important aspect of the reporting process because it complements the conventional financial disclosure in the new economy. It describes the hidden assets of a company especially in the initial public offering (IPO) setting where high information asymmetry exists. This study investigates several variables that may contribute to the relatively ...

Based on this, this paper takes 13 listed companies in Chinese as example, using H-P filtering method, OLS regression, Tobit model There are three main research results: (1) After HP analysis, long-term trend cyclical fluctuation curve price...

Tobit models are extended to allow threshold values which depend on individuals’ characteristics. In such models, the parameters are subject to as many inequality constraints as the number of observations, and the maximum likelihood estimation which requires the numerical maximisation of the likelihood is often difficult to be implemented. Using a Bayesian approach, a Gibbs sampler algorithm is...
