| Abstract: | In order to demonstrate that welfare theory can be put into practice, mathematical-programming methods are used here which can handle the aggregation problems facing us when information concerning the relative valuation of external factors (emissions, safety risk, non-renewable-energy use, noise, etc.) is highly uncertain. Product- and policy-performance measures are presented and then applied to one-time-period real data on the single, perhaps most welfare-affecting man-made consumer product of the 20th century: light-duty vehicles (LDVs). |
