I develop a model for the annual probability of remaining with a particular employer using National Longitudinal Survey of Youth data, which tracks the employment experiences of a nationally-representative cohort of individuals over the 1979 through 2010 period. Many employment spells are relatively short, so short tenures are associated with a high probability of leaving an employer. After a point, somewhat longer tenures are associated with a higher probability of remaining with an employer an additional year.","PeriodicalId":265321,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forensic Economics","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130477612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Comment's two main points are that our definition of the “make-whole” doctrine is not exclusive and the forensic economic literature is not able as yet to forecast total household income. It is our contention that the first point is simply incorrect and that the second point, although containing some validity, does not justify using a method of calculating economic loss just because the forensic economist will find it difficult to forecast the earnings of two individuals rather than one individual.","PeriodicalId":265321,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forensic Economics","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121887006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Valuation of Spouse and Survivor Benefits In a Defined Benefit Retirement Plan 固定收益退休计划中配偶和遗属福利的评估

A first approximation, which might be used to calculate a widow's loss of retirement benefits resulting from the wrongful death of her spouse, is the retiree's benefit payments minus his personal consumption (or maintenance allowance) minus the widow's survivor benefit, if there is one. Economic analysis reveals that while the actual payment to the retiree includes the spouse's benefit if the retiree does survive, it fails to include the spouse's expected survivor benefit in the event that the retiree does not survive. This omitted benefit is significant and should be included in valuing the spouse's expected benefit from the total retirement plan and the widow's loss. Legal analysis reveals that the widow's benefit is essentially the same as proceeds from privately purchased life insurance, which in common law would be considered a collateral source and protected from disclosure at trial or offset against an award. However, tort reform efforts over the past 30 years have led many states to modify or even repeal the traditional collateral source rules. Therefore, the widow's benefit may or may not be considered in valuing the loss of retirement, depending on the jurisdiction, the cause of death (e.g., medical malpractice), and even the interpretation of the collateral source rules by the trial judge. If it is determined that the collateral source rule excludes introduction of the survivor benefit, a reasonable alternative for the plaintiff would be to claim the loss as the retiree's gross benefit minus his personal consumption weighted by the joint probability of survival.","PeriodicalId":265321,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forensic Economics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131374233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, data from the Survey of Household Spending are used, but combined from Statistics Canada's 2007 and 2008 years, which enlarged the sample size of observations by almost 50% compared to the 2000 data.

The findings show that the ID method underestimates the worklife of actives, but the error is neither sizable nor significant. On the other hand, the ID method significantly and sizably overestimates the worklives of inactives. This paper finds that actives (those in the labor force) tend to remain more active than implied by their most recent labor force experience and that inactives tend to remain more inactive. This rejects the usual Markov model used in ID analysis for older inactive females and likely explains the errors in the ID estimates of worklives. In addition, it was found that older women in the labor force tend to live longer than those out of the labor force, in contrast to the usual assumption that all have an equal chance of survival.","PeriodicalId":265321,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Forensic Economics","volume":"607 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132455902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rates of return on the portfolios and the growth rate in hourly earnings are randomly selected from a year in the 1965–2010 period. The results of 10,000 Monte Carlo simulations indicate that a 40-year portfolio will face “ruin” roughly 51% to 52% of the time for all portfolios. However, the portfolios differ greatly in the median year of ruin (if ruin occurs), ranging from a high of the 38th year for a 100% Treasury bills portfolio, to the 22nd year for a 100% S&P 500 portfolio.

It discusses issues relevant to the economic damages expert that are common to all matters of personal injury and wrongful death damages law in Michigan.

There is a clear separation between estimating the particular components for normal tort claims for personal injury and wrongful death damages and claims arising from automobile accidents. An assessment of noneconomic damages available, as a matter of law to Michigan plaintiffs, is described within the context of personal injury, wrongful death and no-fault automobile injury litigation.
