The effects of accelerated capital scrapping: one-off or ongoing? (1990)
Journal Article
Driver, C. (1990). The effects of accelerated capital scrapping: one-off or ongoing?. International Review of Applied Economics, 4(2), 199-208. https://doi.org/10.1080/758523674

It is commonly supposed that the effects of accelerated capital scrapping on labour productivity occur only at the time at which the capital equipment is scrapped. This paper shows that under plausible assumptions there is also an effect on productiv... Read More about The effects of accelerated capital scrapping: one-off or ongoing?.

The sensitivity of estimated employment effects in input-output studies: an example of the use of marginal versus average coefficients (1988)
Journal Article
Driver, C., Kilpatrick, A., & Naisbitt, B. (1988). The sensitivity of estimated employment effects in input-output studies: an example of the use of marginal versus average coefficients. Economic Modelling, 5(2), 145-150. https://doi.org/10.1016/0264-9993%2888%2990016-8

This paper examines the sensitivity of calculations of the employment effects of manufacturing trade balance changes using an input-output framework. It reports the effects of varying the assumptions made concerning the use of average productivity co...

The effects of income distribution on consumer imports (1987)
Journal Article
Arestis, P., & Driver, C. (1987). The effects of income distribution on consumer imports. Journal of Macroeconomics, 9(1), 83-94. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0164-0704%2887%2980008-3

The aim of this paper is to examine empirically the proposition that disaggregated income is important in determining the imports of consumer goods. An estimable equation is derived and tested using annual data (1962–84). The technique of Autoregress... Read More about The effects of income distribution on consumer imports.
