Why the kinked demand curve may still be useful
Unlike the common interpretation and consequent general rejection of the kinked demand curve, J.M. Clark developed a different, and more useful, interpretation of the kinked demand curve. While his approach was not generally understood, for reasons we will discuss (including the fact that his discussion of related issues was scattered among multiple books and articles, many of which primarily focussed on other issues), Clark’s approach to the kin…
Monitoring Costs and Tolerance Levels for Classroom Cheating
The amount of cheating and plagiarism on college campuses has become an increasingly important topic. The usual policy prescription to this type of problem is to step up monitoring efforts. However, this is difficult and costly. An alternative strategy is to substitute tougher and consistent sanctions for cheating and plagiarism
Computing the Extent of Circumvention of Proposition 13
Galles and Sexton (1998) showed that California state and local revenues exceeded their previous real per capita levels as did the sum of property taxes plus charges and miscellaneous revenues within a decade after Proposition 13 passed, and concluded that Proposition 13 was only temporarily successful at shrinking California state and local governments. Khoury and Pal (2000) challenge this conclusion. However, their conclusion that Proposition 1…
An Alternative Tale of Two Tax Jurisdictions
Cebula (1999) suggests that the success of California's Proposition 13 and Massachusetts'Proposition 2-1/2 is better judged by their effects on the growth rates of real per capita revenues and expenditures rather than on the levels of those variables, which Galles and Sexton (1998) used to evaluate those measures. However, the data shows that virtually all of their effects, relative to the United States as a whole, arose during their implementati…
A Tale of Two Tax Jurisdictions
California's Proposition 13 and Massachusetts'Proposition 21⁄2 attempted to shrink state and local tax burdens by reducing property taxes and limiting future tax growth. Both initially succeeded. However, following a brief lag, those governments made up lost revenues primarily through increased non-tax fees and charges; within a decade, real per capita revenues and expenditures exceeded their pre-tax revolt peaks. This development is consistent w…
