      Representative Evidence on Lying Costs

      By: Johannes Abeler, Anke Becker and Armin Falk
      A central assumption in economics is that people misreport their private information if this is to their material benefit. Several recent models depart from this assumption and posit that some people do not lie or at least do not lie maximally. These models invoke many... View Details

      Do High Feed-in Tariffs for Solar PV Panels Hinder Competition (Japanese)
