摘要:
In light of the low public awareness of ozone pollution and the potential health threats posed by long-term ozone expo-sure, this study estimates the causal effect of long-term ozone exposure on respiratory mortality. By employing an instrumental variable based on the long-distance transmission of ozone from upwind neighbor counties, we discover that an increase of one standard deviation in the average concentrations of ozone in the preceding five years increases respiratory mortality by 0.062-0.066 standard deviations. The findings indicate that long-term ozone exposure increases mortality from both acute and chronic respiratory diseases and has significant adverse effects on vulnerable groups. Further-more, we discover that the respiratory mortality rate responds to long-term ozone exposure nonlinearly, and that there is a critical threshold at which the adverse effects of ozone exposure commence. Our bootstrap simulation results suggest that if ozone concentrations in the preceding five years decrease by 10 percent, 11,391 deaths from respiratory diseases could be avoided in the United States annually, with resulting health benefits valued at around $106.85-113.67 billion. Our further estimates suggest that, consistent with general respiratory diseases, long-term ozone exposure also contributes to deaths from COVID-19 during the pandemic.

摘要:
The idea of the home market effect (HME) is that countries with larger home demand for some products tend to have more exports of the same products. Exploiting an exogenous shock to the demand for air purifier in China originated from the disclosure on PM2.5 data, this paper causally tests the HME. The result shows that imports of air purifier surged immediately and then the exports rose dramatically. Besides, the increase in exports is almost completely driven by the expansion in the number of exporters, which in turn is a result of a surge in firm entry. In addition, we find that firm entry is much more sensitive to home demand than foreign demand, which could be a vital source of the HME. The possible explanation of tougher exporting market is not supported by the data. We put forward another explanation that when selecting sectors to entry, entrepreneurs pay more attention to home market due to easier information acquisition. We build a theoretic model with rational inattention in firm entry to validate this explanation.

摘要:
This study examines how firms respond to export tax increases by adjusting sales across both product and destination markets. We first build a multi-product multi-destination model to show how capacity constrained firms translate negative tax shocks to a specific product-destination market into sale expansions in other product and destination markets. We then find strong evidence on this duel dimensional market interdependence effect of the Chinese exporters by exploiting a quasi-experimental setting of export tax changes and the detailed firm- and product-level trade data. Particularly, the results indicate that the increase in firms’ exposure to a negative tax shock for treated products is accompanied with significant increases in both their domestic sales and export sales for non-treated products. Further analysis shows the decline of marginal cost of production for the treated firms in the post-treatment period, which, in turn, supports production capacity constraint as the key mechanism for the detected market interdependence effects.

摘要:
The college admission system of China has used a two-stage procedure for decades: the first stage sends each student’s application to at most one college; the second stage assigns each college’s applicants to its majors. Students who are rejected in the second stage cannot go back to the first stage to apply for other colleges, which incentivizes students to accept options called major transfer in their rank-order lists. This incentive can distort students’ preferences and cause strategic reports. We demonstrate the deficiencies of the two-stage procedure and for the currently used procedure called Chinese Parallel Mechanism (CPM). We propose an improvement (RPM) by combining the two stages into one stage. We also document the most recent reform in the system and notice that a new mechanism (IPM) that essentially runs the deferred acceptance algorithm has been used by some provinces of China. However, most provinces still prefer CPM over IPM, which is probably because they want to avoid radical changes in the reform. We run lab experiments to compare the three mechanisms (CPM, RPM, IPM). Experiments support RPM as an appealing mechanism for both students and colleges and as a practical solution for provinces: the three mechanisms are close in efficiency, while RPM compromises between IPM and CPM in terms of fairness and college-wide advantage; RPM corrects students’ incentive regarding major transfer options; RPM is a minimalist redesign of CPM.

摘要:
A long intellectual tradition starting with Max Weber views an ideal bureaucracy as a completely rule-based system. However, the effect of discretionary appointment versus a rule-based approach is theoretically ambiguous and direct evidence is scant. We exploit a unique organizational reform in China’s imperial bureaucracy that modified the appointments of certain governorships from a rule-based process to a more discretionary method. We show that discretionary appointments improved public goods provision and led to greater state responsiveness. The enhanced state responsiveness is mainly attributed to improvements in the quality of governors. Additionally, we find these positive effects were stronger when the appointer’s incentives were aligned with the organization.

中国自然利率缺口与国债市场定价——风险溢价还是收益率投资者需求
主讲人:赵康辰(必赢线路检测3003no1金融学系博士生,研究方向为资产定价与固定收益证券)

摘要:
自然利率是经济处于理想无摩擦状态下的实际利率,也是价格型货币政策的重要实际利率锚。自然利率与实际利率之间的缺口中包含经济基本面和央行货币政策的关键信息,对国债市场定价有着重要影响。本文通过宏观半结构模型估计中国经济自然利率,发现自然利率缺口包含着国债远期利率所不包含的国债超额收益预测信息。自然利率缺口越高,未来国债超额收益越低,引入自然利率缺口可以显著提升国债超额收益预测的拟合优度。与美国等发达国家金融市场不同,中国自然利率缺口中被宏观经济变量解释的部分对国债超额收益不具有显著预测力,中国经济基本面对国债定价的传导机制尚未完全建立。鉴于中国国债主要由商业银行持有,商业银行投资者由于资本利得税收等因素倾向于持有国债到期,更多考虑到期收益率而非期望收益,本文从到期收益率投资者的需求视角探讨了自然利率缺口对中国国债定价的传导机制,理论和实证研究表明,自然利率缺口是解释国债超额收益的重要指标,且自然利率对超额收益的传导机制主要通过影响商业银行对长期国债持有比例。本文为进一步研究债券市场中投资者结构、偏好对债券定价、货币政策传导的影响以及利率市场化改革提供了有用参考。

报告摘要:
In this paper, we propose statistical tests for weighted functional inequalities with estimated weights. Such null hypotheses have proven highly relevant in settings where subjects' response times may convey information about important variables that are typically unobservable (e.g., utilities, happiness, or political attitudes). Our tests, implemented through an easy-to-use multiplier bootstrap procedure, have reasonable power and are consistent. Applying our method to revealed preference analysis, we show that it pinpoints the subject's preference relation in 68.83% of cases with choice reversals. Moreover, the out-of-sample predictions based on our test results have a remarkable accuracy rate of 96%.
