However, prices in RFPs are always reported as a fraction of the so-called full fare, which is presented as society's willingness to favor those groups for whatever reasons. We argue that full fares are not the correct reference for comparison because special groups exhibit differences in how they use the transit system (e.g., different trip lengths, boarding times, or different occupation of vehicle space), which induces differences in <em>marginal costs</em>. By expanding the well-known one-line stylized transit model to admit different user types, we show that marginal cost fares depend on trip characteristics such as boarding-alighting times and/or average trip lengths. These group-specific marginal cost (first best) prices are proposed as the appropriate reference for comparison with the observed fares. This means that social preferences for special groups should be reflected by fares lower than the corresponding marginal social cost. This general theoretical framework is applied to elders and students using parameters from Santiago, Chile, where observed fares are lower than the full fare but higher than the estimated marginal social cost.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 101533"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143580196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study seeks to probe the impact factors of future vehicle choices and recommendations to other potential users. Specifically, clustering is first done based on vehicle attributes to group users' future vehicle intentions. Then a weighted multinomial logistic model (MNL) is developed to study the impact factors of people's future vehicle demand. Following that, three distinct models are evaluated to identify factors influencing consumer willingness to recommend three different zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) listed by the California Air Resources Board, namely plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), battery electric vehicles (BEVs), and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), with past experiences (reflected by post-purchase satisfaction in this study) serving as mediators. Finally, the relationship between past experiences and future vehicle demand is discussed. Future vehicle choices are classified into four groups that based on fuel type, body size, vehicle addition or replacement, and desire for new or used automobiles. The results indicate that consumers who have experienced sustainable vehicles are more likely to continue to select them in the future. In terms of the impact factors of ZEV satisfaction and recommendation, PHEV owners are concerned about the costs associated with gasoline and electricity consumption at home. BEV users consider not just all of the aforementioned but also battery range and the availability of public charging stations. FCEV users value the convenience of refueling their vehicles.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47810,"journal":{"name":"Research in Transportation Economics","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 101535"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143549351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings of BEKK-GARCH demonstrate that the oil market's past volatility negatively affected the Chinese airline stocks during COVID-19, with a similar effect observed for the USA during the Russian-Ukraine crisis. The optimal weights offer portfolio diversification during the recent war crises for both. Regarding hedging effectiveness, the airline industries benefit from including oil assets in their portfolios to mitigate risks. The wavelet coherence analysis shows a significant multi-waves in-phase (positive) co-movement for China. The oil-returns and China Xiamen Airline (OR-CHX) correlation is prominent during health and war crises. In the United States, except for OR-southwest Airline (SWT), the co-movement exhibited a counter-cyclical (negative) coherence at a medium scale.

Results indicate that shippers have not adjusted to PSR related changes to mitigate the increasing burden of railcar delay charges. However, railroads billed shippers with privately-owned railcars an estimated 0.43% less in total real demurrage per car mile compared to shippers using railroad-owned freight cars. This suggests that shippers using privately-owned railcars have been able to mitigate part of the effects and changes imposed by PSR. Results show that Class I freight railroad demurrage and operational policies have differential effects on total real demurrage per car mile compared to the base railroad when controlling for PSR.
