Abstract:

The present paper provides further evidence on the importance of sunk costs as determinant of the turnover, entry, and exit of firms by studying the Austrian manufacturing industry using a 14-year panel. This study explicitly considers sunk costs related to investment in dedicated intangible assets such as investment relating to organizational and goodwill capital. The empirical results confirm the relevance of sunk costs as mobility barriers, their symmetry in respect to entry and exit and suggest that the influence of sunk costs is robust to aggregation. Sunk costs relating to capital expend

Os modelos econométricos, com dados em painel, utlizados no estudo dos determinantes de entrada e saída são conceptualmente similares. Os testes realizados sugerem o modelo de efeitos fixos como o mais indicado para a estimação dos fatores das entradas e o de efeitos aleatórios para a estimação dos fatores das saídas.

Interaction between a solid body and a liquid-air interface plays an important role in multiphase flows, which includes numerous engineering applications such as mineral flotation, dip coating operations, and air-to-sea and sea-to-air projectiles. It is also crucial in animal behaviors like the locomotion of water-walking animals, the plunge-diving of birds, and the jumping out of water of marine creatures. Depending on the moving direction of a solid, such diverse phenomena can be classified into two categories; liquid-entry and liquid-exit. Liquid-entry, or more widely called water-entry, is

Measles is a leading cause of mortality in infants in countries with suboptimal vaccination coverage. This disease is caused by a negative-strand RNA virus, measles virus (MeV). Wild-type strains of the virus use two cellular receptors to invade cells and establish infection: the signalling lymphocyte activation molecule f1 (SLAMF1), which is present on certain immune cells, and nectin-4, which is expressed in the lung epithelium. During infection, MeV can spread through the release of virions or by inducing cell-cell fusion. The aim of this thesis is to determine the molecular mechanism under

Abstract:

In recent years, the Korean government has sought to encourage rural young people to enter farming and older farmers to leave it. The government‟s tool for promoting this intergenerational change has been agricultural structural adjustment policy, which includes farm entry policy, farm exit policy, competitiveness policy, and rural development policy. However, the number of young farmers has decreased and number of old farmers has increased. This research investigates why agricultural structural adjustment policy has failed, analyzing survey data on farm entry and exit using regression analysi

Abstract:

This article investigates the determinants of entry and exit in the Austrian manufacturing sector based on 1981 to 1994 data. We study the response of entry, exit and other indicators of firm dynamics to changes in average plant size, size heterogeneity, concentration, incentives and vertical integration. By applying Bayesian simulation methods we estimate random coefficient models and study the symmetry of the determinants of entry and exit. Our empirical analysis shows that entry and exit rates are driven by the same determinants. The impacts of these determinants are nearly homogeneous for

Following Chamley, Lucas, Laitner, and Aiyagari, this dissertation continues to explore the answer for the question of zero capital taxation by discussing how taxes on capital income, labor income, and property affect the economy in the context of a vintage capital model where the embodied technology grows exogenously. The government maximizes social welfare by finding the optimal combinations of the three tax rates in the steady state and examines the welfare gain/loss over and after the transitions caused by different types of shocks. The simulation method used here is linear approximation.

Abstract:

This research explores both industry and temporal aspects of entry, exit and industry turbulence in Austrian manufacturing in the period between 1981 to 1994. It is shown that while the net entry of both firms and establishments is quite stable over time, exit and especially the turnover and volatility of firms is influenced more by temporal effects. A regression analysis into the determinants of industry dynamics associated with entry and exit shows that sunk costs, scale economies and industry growth are primary determinants for different entry and exit regimes across 2-digit sectors, while

Abstract:

Abstract Standard macroeconomic models based on a representative firm ignore firm entry and exit. Therefore, these models miss a potentially significant channel of economic interactions through the firm dynamics. This doctoral thesis examines the role of firm dynamics in the economy through four essays. The first essay examines the impact of monetary policy on firm entry. The essay finds that substantial inertia exists in the firm entry process. Based on the empirical evidence on firm dynamics, the second essay develops a real business cycle model in which firm entry is endogenous and default

Inability to observe, survey, and take into account all of the returns to entrepreneurship prior to business entry creates a biased set of beliefs on part of the potential entrants. Using Bayesian

Abstract:

Barriers to entry are one of the critical forces that provide incumbent firms with competitive advantage over new entrants and contribute to an oligopoly market structure. The aim of this research was to determine barriers to entry into the vertically integrated oil industry and identify economic theories of entry into the market and apply them to the South African vertically integrated oil industry. A mixed method design was adopted to conduct this research. A 5-point Likert scale questionnaire with statement of barriers to entry obtained from literature was sent out to middle and senior man

Abstract:

The research question, which we will answer in this paper, is following: What are the four entry barriers that are most difficult to overcome when entering the training simulator market for construction vehicles in Europe? To answer this research question we performed a study on nine companies in the training simulator market for construction vehicles and asked them to rank 25 entry barriers on a Likert scale in order of importance. The results of our research study show us the barriers of importance. The top four barriers are: R&D expenses in entering a market, access to distribution cha

Abstract:

Conventional trade theory assumes perfect competition among firms and makes on balance a strong case for free trade. An important observation in the modern international economy is that competition among firms in many industries is imperfectly competitive. These firms, usually few and large, strategically interact with each other and may earn supernormal profits. As shown by the recently growing literature on trade with imperfect competition, allowing for the importance of imperfect competition leads to new insights about causes, effects, and patterns of trade, and has major implications for t

Abstract:

It is well-known that taxes affect risky investment decisions. Analytical studies indicate that tax rate increases (decreases) can foster (hinder) investment if there is flexibility, in particular when an exit option is available. We design an experiment based on an analytical model with binomial random walk and entry and exit flexibility. Contrasting the underlying model, we find accelerated investment, which is often considered as an increased willingness to invest, on tax rate increases to be independent of the existence of an exit option. However, we observe this investor reaction on

Abstract:

This research investigates the determinants of firm entry and exit into Greek manufacturing industries during the eighties and early nineties. The first perspective concerns the determinants of sectoral variation of both net entry rates, and gross entry and exit rates. The role of overall macro-economic conditions, in conjunction with the effect of industry-specific structural variables, is the main focus. Net entry rates are difficult to explain using conventional measures of profitability and entry barriers. Some evidence is provided for counter-cyclical patterns in net entry rates post-1985
