520 $a This dissertation is intended to offer several case studies on the impact of various environmental changes on economic agents using many alternative econometric techniques as a collective assessment tool. Chapter 1 presents introduction and motivation behind this dissertation with a preview summary of each chapter.
520 $a Chapter 2 examines a study of a large unprecedented increase in minimum wage in Thailand, which serves as an example of how wages in the labor market respond to an extremely large increase in the minimum wage. The findings show that the effective rate of the increase in the minimum wage is only about 30 percent of its original intended amount.
520 $a Chapter 3 provides an example of firms' responses to a regulatory policy that exacts a large penalty on an extremely rare event. Specifically, chapter 3 is a study of airlines' responses to the Passenger Protection Rule, which imposes a heavy fine on all US airlines that experience tarmac delay (delay on the runway) for more than three hours in US airports. The study finds that the Passenger Protection Rule reduced tarmac delay in exchange for longer gate delays. There is no significant evidence that the rule causes more flight cancellations.
520 $a Chapter 4 provides some insight on how important access to credit is to a household's risk management strategy. Not having access to credit limits households' risk management twofold, with both the ex-post and ex-ante strategies. This is because diversification is costly.
520 $a Chapter 5 concludes the dissertation with a quick summary of the main findings, lessons learnt and their implication in each of the case studies. The chapter also presents some suggestions on future work regarding the minimum wage issue, the Passenger Protection Rule and some extensions to the work on access to credit and diversification behavior.
