REVIEW OF THE LIFE CYCLE HYPOTHESIS OF CONSUMPTION AND SAVING
Title
A REVIEW OF THE LIFE CYCLE HYPOTHESIS OF CONSUMPTION AND SAVING.
Creator
SHELOR, CARROLL FREDERICK., Florida Atlantic University, Stronge, William B., College of Business, Department of Economics
Abstract/Description
This thesis reviews the major literature associated with the Life Cycle Hypothesis of Consumption and Saving as formulated by Franco Modigliani, Richard Brumberg and Albert Ando. The initial microeconomic formulation of the theoretical model of individual consumer behavior in terms of life time planning was examined under conditions of both stability and growth. Next, the attempts to seek empirical support for the propositions of the theory in cross-section survey data and the tests of the...
Show moreThis thesis reviews the major literature associated with the Life Cycle Hypothesis of Consumption and Saving as formulated by Franco Modigliani, Richard Brumberg and Albert Ando. The initial microeconomic formulation of the theoretical model of individual consumer behavior in terms of life time planning was examined under conditions of both stability and growth. Next, the attempts to seek empirical support for the propositions of the theory in cross-section survey data and the tests of the aggregate implications of the theory were examined. It was concluded that within the current conceptual framework of macroeconomics the theory has a fairly high level of explanatory force, and should further future inquiry.

SYSTEMS OF DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS IN ECONOMIC THEORY
Title
SYSTEMS OF DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS IN ECONOMIC THEORY.
Creator
WONNACOTT, LARRY RUSSELL., Florida Atlantic University, Stronge, William B., College of Business, Department of Economics
Abstract/Description
This study demonstrates the importance of dynamic economic analysis, the role played by difference equations in such analysis and the properties of systems of difference equations. This is accomplished by proving the significance of dynamics in general and difference equations in particular using the Cobweb model and the "correspondence principle". The properties of systems of linear, first order difference equations are discussed in detail and it is shown that a system of any order can be...
Show moreThis study demonstrates the importance of dynamic economic analysis, the role played by difference equations in such analysis and the properties of systems of difference equations. This is accomplished by proving the significance of dynamics in general and difference equations in particular using the Cobweb model and the "correspondence principle". The properties of systems of linear, first order difference equations are discussed in detail and it is shown that a system of any order can be reduced to first order so that the discussion is completely general. The properties included in this analysis ore the traverse, impact, delayed, cumulative and long run multipliers, and stability of a linear system. A simple Keynesian model of income determination is estimated and simulated by the computer to facilitate observation of these properties.

TEST OF MONETARY RULE VERSUS DISCRETION IN WEST GERMANY--1957 TO 1973
Title
A TEST OF MONETARY RULE VERSUS DISCRETION IN WEST GERMANY--1957 TO 1973.
Creator
RALSTON, DAVID ALLEN., Florida Atlantic University, Rodman, Milton, College of Business, Department of Economics
Abstract/Description
Using the Modigliani approach, the effects of a fixed rule growth rate and a semi-rule growth rate are compared to the growth rate under the discretionary policy of the West German monetary authorities. This type of analysis has previously been completed for the United States economy which is considered a relatively closed economy. In contrast, the West German economy is open, that is, it is very dependent upon trade for survival. Therefore, the impact of this difference is the major point to...

TWO-SECTOR GROWTH MODEL OF THE UNITED STATES ECONOMY
Title
A TWO-SECTOR GROWTH MODEL OF THE UNITED STATES ECONOMY.
Creator
POSLUSNY, CHESTER, JR., Florida Atlantic University, Stronge, William B., College of Business, Department of Economics
Abstract/Description
This work includes a survey of the literature of growth theory with emphasis on the two-sector Neoclassical model. A two-sector model of the U. S. economy with disembodied Harrod neutral technological change is estimated and simulated. Stability and the role of price mechanism is pointed out. The results of the estimation do not seem to support the significance of the disaggregation of the data into the two sectors. A clear advantage of the model, however, lies in the efficient disequilibrium...

WITHER ANNEXATION: THE CASE FOR DEERFIELD BEACH, FLORIDA.
Creator
PAPANDREAS, CHRISTINE., Florida Atlantic University, Nicholas, James C., College of Business, Department of Economics
Abstract/Description
This research was done under an internship program for Deerfield Beach, Florida. Costs of providing municipal services to land outside the city were projected as were revenues expected to accrue to the city. Projections were made both for the current level of development, and for that time when the land was developed at its ultimate holding capacity. Projections for the near future clearly showed that revenues would exceed costs for land which is currently developed. Costs would exceed...
Show moreThis research was done under an internship program for Deerfield Beach, Florida. Costs of providing municipal services to land outside the city were projected as were revenues expected to accrue to the city. Projections were made both for the current level of development, and for that time when the land was developed at its ultimate holding capacity. Projections for the near future clearly showed that revenues would exceed costs for land which is currently developed. Costs would exceed revenues if services were extended to undeveloped lands. Projections based on the ultimate holding capacity were less certain. For most of the land area, property tax revenues would yield revenues equal to about half of expected expenditures. Uncertainties prevented estimation of total revenues for the long run. The focus of this thesis was on direct, tangible costs and revenues. Intangible aspects were stated, but not evaluated.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE INSTITUTIONAL SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS ON MANPOWER LEGISLATION.
Creator
CRUMLEY, RICHARD EARL., Florida Atlantic University, Nicholas, James C., College of Business, Department of Economics
Abstract/Description
The rise of exploitative Banker Capitalism since the Civil War precipitated the development of a social welfare school of applied economics that is called institutional economics. This thesis reviews the major contributors to the field (Commons, Veblen and Mitchell) and the resulting manpower legislation that went into effect as the result of their efforts.

SEASONAL EMPLOYMENT.
Creator
MOURDOUKOUTAS, PANAYIOTIS GEORGE., Florida Atlantic University, Stronge, William B., College of Business, Department of Economics
Abstract/Description
This thesis focuses on seasonal employment. It thus includes a theoretical examination of factors which cause variations in employment in the year, seasonal models are reviewed and estimated. From the empirical analysis, it was concluded that seasonality is partly desirable to individuals. It helps the optimum allocation of time between market and non-market activities.
