Household Labor Market Choices and the Demand for Recreation
将家庭劳动力市场选择引入休闲需求分析,发现当多个家庭成员能以固定工资参与劳动时,时间机会成本与工资率的联系被切断。以马萨诸塞州新贝德福德家庭为例,表明休闲需求模型和消费者剩余估计对家庭劳动力市场选择敏感。
This paper introduces household labor market choices into the demand for recreation, showing that the opportunity cost of timewage rate connection is severed when several household members have the opportunity to participate in the labor market at fixed wages. An application of recreation demand for households in New Bedford, Massachusetts, shows that the recreation demand models and estimates of consumer surplus are sensitive to household labor market choices.
