  • The Demand for Tax Return Preparation Services

    Jeffrey A Dubin, Michael J Graetz et al.ARTICLEThe Review of Economics and…1992

    We analyze taxpayer choices of return preparation \nservices. We distinguish between two types of nonpaid preparers, six types of paid third parties, and self-preparation. Among other things, we find significant differences in the factors which explain the demand for paid third parties who are and are not able to represent clients before the IRS. Among these factors are increases in IRS audit rates and the frequency of IRS penalties

  • An Analysis of Conjunctive Choice: Theory and Experiments

    David Grether, David M Grether et al.ARTICLEJournal of Consumer Research1984Cited by: 1

    This paper develops a theoretical framework in which the conjunctive choice rule can be analyzed and reports on a set of laboratory experiments designed to test that theory. Initially the conjunctive choice rule is formulated as a constrained optimization problem. The solution to this problem is then used to identify simpler versions of the rule that require less computational sophistication. In experiments designed to test this theory, all subje…

  • Information Costs, Duration of Search, and Turnover: Theory and Applications

    Louis L WildeARTICLEJournal of Political Economy1981Cited by: 3References: 2

    This paper uses a formal model of search over multiattribute alternatives, analyzed in a product market setting, to investigate the theoretical foundations of the empirical literature on duration of search and turnover in product markets, labor markets, and marriage markets. A number of specific empirical predictions are also derived. In particular, whether "quality" is a "search" attribute or an "experience" attribute is related to the cost of s…
