  • Seven Recommendations for Pricing Greenhouse Gas Emissions

    Open AccessArthur G Fraas, John D Graham et al.ARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2023Cited by: 1References: 4

    The social cost of greenhouse gases is important in many regulatory impact analyses. However, calculations of the social cost of greenhouse gases are highly complex and periodically revisited. We offer seven recommendations to improve current estimates. These include recommendations to use both country-level and global measures of the social cost of greenhouse gases, to use country-specific values for monetizing climate damages, to represent unce…

  • Addressing Fundamental Uncertainty in Benefit–Cost Analysis

    Open AccessKerry Krutilla, David H Good et al.ARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2021References: 5

    Mineral deposits of base metals, precious metals, and rare earth elements have been discovered on deep seabeds, and the commercial exploitation of these resources seems poised to begin after faltering for many years. The development of seabed resources could be socially beneficial if all goes well, but the industry faces daunting challenges and uncertainties. Emerging regulations and contracting mechanisms are the principal means for managing the…

  • Consumer’s Guide to Regulatory Impact Analysis

    Open AccessSusan E Dudley, Richard B Belzer et al.ARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2017Cited by: 4References: 2

    Regulatory impact analyses (RIAs) weigh the benefits of regulations against the burdens they impose and are invaluable tools for informing decision makers. We offer 10 tips for nonspecialist policymakers and interested stakeholders who will be reading RIAs as consumers. 1. Core problem: Determine whether the RIA identifies the core problem (compelling public need) the regulation is intended to address. 2. Alternatives: Look for an objective, poli…

  • Uncertainty in the Cost-Effectiveness of Federal Air Quality Regulations

    Open AccessKerry Krutilla, David H Good et al.ARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2015References: 5

    In this study, we conduct a cost-effectiveness analysis of nine air quality regulations recently issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Taking emission reductions in the Regulatory Impact Analyses (RIAs) for these regulations as given, we independently assess uncertainty about the compliance costs of the regulations and the lives the regulations are estimated to save. The latter evaluation is based on a formal uncertainty analy…

  • The Normative Implications of Political Decision-Making for Benefit-Cost Analysis

    Open AccessKerry Krutilla, Alexander AlexeevARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2012References: 5

    The Potential Pareto criterion, or Kaldor-Hicks standard, presumes that costs are not fully compensated. Yet, uncompensated costs can incentivize costly political activity and create uncertainty about political outcomes. These consequences are not reckoned in the standard benefit-cost analysis. This study models political costs and uncertainty as a function of project parameters and political-institutional characteristics. The economic consequenc…

  • Are Green Vehicles Worth the Extra Cost? The Case of Diesel‐Electric Hybrid Technology for Urban Delivery Vehicles

    Open AccessKerry Krutilla, John D GrahamARTICLEJournal of Policy Analysis and…2012Cited by: 2References: 1

    A central question for environmental policy is whether the long‐term benefits of energy‐saving technologies are sufficient to justify their short‐term costs, and if so, whether financial incentives are needed to stimulate adoption. The fiscal effects of incentivizing new technologies, and the revenue effects of using the technology, are also policy relevant, given current fiscal constraints. This study evaluates the economic and fiscal effects of…

  • Debt, democratization, and development in Latin America

    Open AccessRené W Aubourg, David H Good et al.ARTICLEJournal of Policy Analysis and…2007Cited by: 4References: 2

    The environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis conjectures a nonlinear relationship between pollution and economic growth, such that pollution per capita initially increases as countries economically develop, but then reaches a maximum point before ultimately declining. Much of the EKC literature has focused on testing this basic hypothesis and, in studies that find evidence of an EKC, estimating the “turning point” level of development at whic…

  • Using the Kaldor‐Hicks tableau format for cost‐benefit analysis and policy evaluation

    Open AccessKerry KrutillaARTICLEJournal of Policy Analysis and…2005Cited by: 8References: 6

    This note describes the Kaldor‐Hicks (KH) tableau format as a framework for distributional accounting in cost‐benefit analysis and policy evaluation. The KH tableau format can serve as a heuristic aid for teaching microeconomics‐based policy analysis, and offer insight to policy analysts and decisionmakers beyond conventional efficiency analysis. © 2005 by the Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management

  • The Gatt and Environmental Policy

    Open AccessKerry Krutilla, Clare BreidenichARTICLEReview of Policy Research1993References: 1

    The emergence of a worldwide environmental movement in the early 1960s accompanied an international expansion of economic activity and applied technology. The principal medium through which this expansion progressed was trade. In 1947, following World War II, a series of international agreements were negotiated to regularize international relations in finance, monetary policies, and trade. The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) was neg…
