Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research was to construct a benefit-estimation model for urban and transport policies, including population movement. The major results are the following three. First, I develop a benefit estimation model that explicitly focuses on agglomeration economies/diseconomies, caused by population movement. This model can treat both types of agglomeration, which stems from the variety of consumer’s final goods and the variety of producer’s intermediate goods. Second, using the developed model, I demonstrate the relationship with the current standard cost-benefit analysis. Third, I examine the cost-benefit analysis in UK, which already includes the estimation of the agglomeration economies, and point out that the method in UK could overestimate the real benefits.
