How Does Progressivity Affect the Tax Cut Multiplier?
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT How does the targeting of personal income tax cuts affect the output multiplier? This paper provides quantitative evidence using a heterogeneous‐agent New‐Keynesian model calibrated to match US distributions of income, wealth, marginal tax rates, and marginal propensities to consume.

Labor Market Monopsony Power and the Dynamic Gains to Openness Reforms
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We embed labor market monopsony into a dynamic heterogeneous‐firm general equilibrium model with exporting, horizontal FDI, and rich firm lifecycle dynamics. Rising marginal costs with monopsony slow and limit incumbent firm growth in response to liberalization, shifting adjustment to the extensive margin.

International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel methodology to measure the stringency of building height regulations. This measure gauges the difference in building heights with and without regulations. The primary challenge is to recover unobserved building heights in the absence of regulations.

International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACTLarger firms feature (i) longer hours worked, (ii) higher wages, and (iii) smaller (larger) wage penalties for working long (short) hours. We reconcile these patterns in a general equilibrium model, which features the endogenous interaction of hours, wages, and firm size. In the model, workers willing to work longer hours sort into larger firms

A Quantile Model of Firm Investment
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Are firms risk averse? We propose a dynamic model of firm investment under uncertainty that captures firms' risk attitudes through quantile preferences. The firm maximizes its present value, defined as current profits and investment plus the discounted value of the τ$\tau$‐quantile of its value next period.

A Non‐Parametric Framework for Correlation Functions on Product Metric Spaces
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary We propose a non‐parametric framework for analysing data defined over products of metric spaces, a versatile class encountered in various fields. This framework accommodates non‐stationarity and seasonality and is applicable to both local and global domains, such as the Earth's surface, as well as domains evolving over linear time or time ...
