If capital price distortions (e.g., trade policy) explain 0.250 log points of income difference, and capital accumulation frictions (high MPK) explain another 0.250 log points, we have explained one half of the 1.000 log point income difference.
The African Arab differential is -0.436 log points for 2000 and -0.484 log points for 2002, a statistically insignificant and small decline of 0.048 log points.
Consistent with other studies, the log wage penalty of mismatched (i.e. overeducated) graduates relative to matched graduates was significant and sizable, being 38 log points in 1997 2001.
The highest-skilled immigrants from non-English-speaking countries (at the 90th percentile) earn 0.08 log points more than highly-skilled natives.
To sum up, in contrast to income losses due to inhibited technology transfer (about − 5% or − 0.05 log points of income) the bulk of the income losses due to trade policy frictions (about − 20% or − 0.200 log points of income) would seem to derive from the direct effect of increased input costs for capital and intermediates.
Intensified competition lowers male workers' wages by 0.8 (0.9) log points in the specification with plant sex (match) fixed effects, where the coefficient is statistically significant at the 5 (10) per cent level.
This server handles major functions of the firewall enforcement point, provides the connectivity and data for all SMART Client connections, and stores enforcement point logs, enforcement point configuration, and all other aspects of the firewall architecture.
Slash-and-burn farmers have ravaged strictly protected areas with impunity, and logging representatives point out that their lands have fared better.
CE immigrant men had higher initial earnings (0.210 log point in model 1) and a higher growth rate (about 0.012 log point per year) than FE immigrants.
Having high earnings before the base year was associated with a very large earnings advantage (0.800 log point); while having medium earnings before the base year was associated with a moderate earnings advantage (0.241 log point).
It shows that the earnings gap reduced to about −0.22 log point by 20th year after the base year.
