Exogenous Consideration and Extended Random Utility
Roy Allen
In a consideration set model, an individual maximizes utility among the considered alternatives. I relate a consideration set additive random utility model to classic discrete choi…
Obstacles to Redistribution Through Markets and One Solution
Roy Allen, John Rehbeck
Dworczak et al. (2021) study when certain market structures are optimal in the presence of heterogeneous preferences. A key assumption is that the social planner knows the joint di…
Counterfactual and Welfare Analysis with an Approximate Model
Roy Allen, John Rehbeck
We propose a conceptual framework for counterfactual and welfare analysis for approximate models. Our key assumption is that model approximation error is the same magnitude at new…
Identification of Random Coefficient Latent Utility Models
Roy Allen, John Rehbeck
This paper provides nonparametric identification results for random coefficient distributions in perturbed utility models. We cover discrete and continuous choice models. We establ…
Injectivity and the Law of Demand
Roy Allen
Establishing that a demand mapping is injective is core first step for a variety of methodologies. When a version of the law of demand holds, global injectivity can be checked by s…
Prices, Profits, Proxies, and Production
Victor H. Aguiar, Nail Kashaev, Roy Allen
This paper studies nonparametric identification and counterfactual bounds for heterogeneous firms that can be ranked in terms of productivity. Our approach works when quantities an…
