| Tiivistelmä: | When individuals cannot undertake safety-improving expenditures (hereafter as: s-i-exps.), the effect of an increase in the initial risk (here as: e-of-in-the-init-risk) on the willingness to pay (WTP) for mortality risk reduction is positive. When they can undertake s-i-exps., e-of-in-the-init-risk is governed by two effects: 1. The dead-anyway effect as 'positive' and 2. the high-payment effect as 'negative'. This paper treats the risk-reducing expenditures types, that is, endogenous and exogenous ones, as inputs in a safety-improving technology function. There are found conditions guaranteeing that the high-payment effect dominates. |
