More than a Penny’s Worth: Left-Digit Bias and Firm Pricing

13 December 2022

Avner Strulov-Shlain, University of Chicago, Booth School of Business

Firms arguably price at 99-ending prices because of left-digit bias—the tendency of consumers to perceive a $4.99 as much lower than a $5.00. Analysis of retail scanner data on 3500 products sold by 25 US chains provides robust support for this explanation.

Unemployment Insurance in Macroeconomic Stabilization

12 December 2022

Rohan Kekre, Chicago Booth and NBER

I study unemployment insurance (UI) in general equilibrium with incomplete markets, search frictions, and nominal rigidities.

Stratification Trees for Adaptive Randomization in Randomized Controlled Trials

12 December 2022

Max Tabord-Meehan, University of Chicago

This paper proposes an adaptive randomization procedure for two-stage randomized controlled trials. The method uses data from a first-wave experiment in order to determine how to stratify in a second wave of the experiment, where the objective is to minimize the variance of an estimator for the average treatment effect (ATE).

We study whether long-term cumulative exposure to airborne small particulate matter (PM2.5) affects the probability that an individual receives a new diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias.

“Since You’re So Rich, You Must Be Really Smart”: Talent, Rent Sharing, and the Finance Wage Premium

4 December 2022

Michael J. Böhm, Daniel Metzger, and Per Strömberg

Financial sector wages have increased extraordinarily over the last decades. We address two potential explanations for this increase: (1) rising demand for talent and (2) firms sharing rents with their employees.

Learning from Neighbors about a Changing State

9 November 2022

Krishna Dasaratha, Benjamin Golub, and Nir Hak

Agents learn about a changing state using private signals and their neighbors’ past estimates of the state. We present a model in which Bayesian agents in equilibrium use neighbors’ estimates simply by taking weighted sums with time-invariant weights.

reorganization."
