This article studies provision of charity care by private, nonprofit hospitals. We demonstrate that in the absence of large positive income effects on charity care supply, convex preferences for the nonprofit hospital imply crowding out by other private or government hospitals. Extending our model to include impure altruism (rivalry) provides a possible explanation for the previously reported empirical result that both crowding out and income effects on indigent care supply are often weak or insignificant. Empirical analysis of data for hospitals in Maryland provides evidence of rivalry on the supply of charity care. 相似文献

Financial intermediation and economic growth in Southern Africa 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Using various indicators of financial development, this paperinvestigates the role of financial intermediation in stimulatingeconomic growth in Southern Africa. The results lend some supportto the hypothesis that financial development is positively correlatedwith the growth rate of real per capita GDP. This relationshipis more evident in regressions that use pooled data (5-yearcross-sections) than those using annual data. This finding suggeststhat the finance-growth nexus is a long-run phenomenon. Thedata indicate that while Botswana and Mauritius are catchingup with South Africa towards a high-income steady state, therest of the countries are stagnating to low income levels andlow growth rates. 相似文献

This paper presents a method for computing predictions, prediction error variances, and confidence intervals, which can be implemented with any regression program. It demonstrates that a regression estimated for an augmented data set, obtained by (1) combining n sample points with r forecast points, and (2) including r dummy variables (each equalling one only for the corresponding forecast point), will yield r dummy variable coefficients and variances which equal the corresponding prediction errors and prediction error variances. Since most programs lack special routines to calculate these magnitudes, while manual computation is cumbersome, the proposed method is of considerable practical value. 相似文献

Shareholder-value maximization and product-market competition 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
We investigate product-market competition when managers maximizeshareholder value rather than their expected discounted valueof profits. If share-holders are imperfectly informed aboutfuture profitability, shareholder-value maximization can leadto either more or less aggressive product-market strategies.Lower rivals' profits lead investors to believe that the firm'scosts are low relative to those of its rivals and that the industry'sprospects are poor. If the former (latter) inference dominates,each firm tries to lower (raise) its rival's profits to increaseits own stock price. We also consider implications for corporatefinancial structure. 相似文献

Jumps and stochastic volatility: exchange rate processes implicit in deutsche mark options 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
An efficient method is developed for pricing American optionson stochastic volatility/jump-diffusion processes under systematicjump and volatility risk. The parameters implicit in deutschemark (DM) options of the model and various submodels are estimatedover the period 1984 to 1991 via nonlinear generalized leastsquares, and are tested for consistency with $/DM futures pricesand the implicit volatility sample path. The stochastic volatilitysubmodel cannot explain the 'volatility smile' evidence of implicitexcess kurtosis, except under parameters implausible given thetime series properties of implicit volatilities. Jump fearscan explain the smile, and are consistent with one 8 percentDM appreciation 'outlier' observed over the period 1984 to 1991. 相似文献
