Title: CERTAINTY EQUIVALENT PRICES AND PRODUCER WELFARE UNDER OUTPUT PRICE UNCERTAINTY
Authors: Tsur, Yacov
Zilberman, David
Issue Date: 1989
Series/Report no.: Staff Paper P88-40
Abstract: Producer welfare indices under price uncertainty are derived using the concept of certainty equivalent prices. In this approach the marginal cost function is used instead of the ex-ante supply function; the effects of uncertainty and risk preference are captured by certainty equivalent prices. Implications for welfare evaluation are discussed.
