The Impact

Abstract Between the months of February and April of 2020, average weekly market hours in the U.S. dropped by 6.25, meanwhile 36% of workers reported switching to remote work arrangements. In this paper, we examine implications of these changes for the time allocation of different households, and on aggregate. We estimate that home production activity increased by 2.65 h a week, or 42.4% of lost market hours, due to the drop in market work and rise in remote work. The monthly value of home production increased by $39.65 billion – that is 13.55% of the concurrent $292.61 billion drop in monthly GDP. Although market hours declined the most for single, less educated individuals, the lost market hours were absorbed into home production the most by married individuals with children. Adding on the impact of school closures, our estimate of weekly home production hours increases by as much as 4.92 h. The increase in the value of monthly home production between February and April updates to $73.57 billion. We also report the estimated impact of labor markets and telecommuting on home production for each month in 2020.

Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Design

Abstract This paper uses Socio-Economic Surveys covering the period from 2013 to 2019 and the 2015 Time Use Survey to investigate the extent to which household consumption changes at retirement in Thailand. A fuzzy regression discontinuity design is applied to evaluate the retirement effect on total household expenditure and expenditures on four major categories: food-at-home, work-related items, non-durable entertainment, and others. The results reveal that retirement decreases household expenditure by 11%. Further investigations show that the dramatic declines in expenditures on work-related and non-durable entertainment contribute significantly to the spending drop at retirement. The magnitudes of the declines are more pronounced for low-income and low-wealth households. The results also indicate that the retirees spend more leisure time on home production activities after retirement. Once accounting for this effect, it finds that the drop in total household expenditure decreases to 6%. These results suggest that the sizable consumption expenditure drop at retirement is due to substituting away from market purchased goods toward home-produced goods.

Topicality. Actuality of problem of oilseeds market and foods of their processing development increases inconnection with the necessity of maintenance of existent volumes and leading positions of Ukraine in the world market, and also increases of efficiency of functioning component the integrated market. Aim and tasks. The aim of the article is an estimation of existent oilseeds market and foods of their processing condition, development of practical recommendations, both on the height of production and sales volumes and to efficiency in the conditions of action of the free trading with European Union. Research results. A oilseed market and foods of their processing analysis is conducted from the point of view of volume and structure as oilseeds raw material so vegetable oil. Measures are offered on the improvement of structure at the market of vegetable oils, meaning the heightof stake of soy-bean and rape oil. These measures areaimed at limitation of export of oilseeds raw material, especially soy and rape, and also all types of cake. Therow of measures of the custom adjusting is offered with the purpose of increase of home production and export of products with a greater valueadded. Conclusions. Strategic directions of oilseeds market and foods of their processing development include measures on limitation of export of raw material and on the increase of export of products with a greater valueadded.
