The author analyzes substitution between engineers and technicians through the application of a derived demand equation model to 1961 Census data and concludes that there is considerable substitution between these groups. The conclusion is qualified by noting certain weaknesses of the data. The results should be viewed in the context of the importance of substitution for manpower and educational planning and the lack of empirical study to date.

In order to encourage credit growth that experienced sluggishness from 2012 to 2016, Bank Indonesia sought to increase lending by lowering the benchmark interest rate so that it could be followed by a decline in lending rates by banks in Indonesia. But this is thought to cause competition to become a low oligopoly and decrease efficiency. This study aims to determine the factors that affect the amount of credits paid, estimating the market power and efficiency of commercial banks in Indonesia for the 2012-2016 period. Efficiency method used is Data Envelopment Analysis, while to estimate market power using two stage least square. The results of the demand equation show GDP and WCCR_GDP have no significant effect while the rest variables have significant effect. From the two equations using Bresnahan-Lau’s model, market power is 0.231. Efficiency measurement obtained a good efficiency scale even reaching 100% in 2013, 2015 and 2016.

Equivalence Scale in Terms of Polish Households' Source of Income The paper presents a comparison of the costs of Polish households by their main source of income. In order to compare these costs the author estimated three kinds of equivalence scales using the Engel method, ELES (Extended Linear Expenditure System), the demand equation and the Bernoulli well-being function. Estimation for household groups determined on account of the main source of income produced by the scales confirmed differences in households' maintenance costs compared to the costs of the reference household. A comparison of the values of equivalence scales revealed a similarity of the results produced by the ELES and the Bernoulli methods which differed from the results obtained by means of the Engel method.

This study evaluated the impact on highway demand of highway disbursements under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Vehicle miles traveled were used to estimate a highway demand equation employing a spatial Durbin model for the 48 contiguous U.S. states during 1994-2008. Estimates from the equation were used to test the hypothesis that highway disbursements caused different upward shifts in the highway demand curves of states. We estimated $8.2 billion in total net benefits for the 48 states as a result of the $27.2 billion in ARRA highway disbursements, yielding an average net benefit of $0.30 per dollar spent.

The pulp industry has a great importance to the economy of Brazil and despite of being one of the biggest producer in the world this industry is still expanding in the country. In spite of the importance of the planted forests as main source for the pulp industry and other products, pulpwood for the cellulose market has received little attention in Brazil. Therefore, the objective of this research is the study of pulpwood demand in Brazil from 1994 to 2016, using econometric tools, where the demand equation was specified and adjusted by the Ordinary Least Squares method. The results showed that pulpwood price and the capacity of the pulp industry explain the pulpwood demand with good econometric results. The pulpwood demand is inelastic to price fluctuations and elastic to installed capacity. These results are consistent with the international estimations and they can assist projecting policies that promote more rational and sustainable management of the wood and consequently the forests.
