Abstract
En 中文
Presidential Executive Order 12,866 requires federal agencies to design cost-effective regulations and to assess costs and benefits of these regulations on the basis of the best reasonably obtainable scientific, technical, economic, and other information Benefit transfers are one economic approach used to estimate these benefits and costs, and the use of existing economic information to predict the effects of new policies is well established However, advancing the practice of benefit transfers is crucial if economists are to play a role in developing federal policies We review contributions to the benefit-transfer literature and present a unified conceptual framework to guide the design and evaluation of benefit-transfer guidelines
