Factors Affecting Alaska’s Salmon Permit Values: Evidence from Bristol Bay Drift Gillnet Permits
Journal Title: Review of Economics & Finance - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 4
Abstract
The effects of total earnings, total costs and mining exploration on permit prices in Alaska are investigated using an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach to cointegration. We take specific account of regional and gear specific salmon fisheries – that is, Bristol Bay drift gillnet permits – in our modelling. We find that there is a stable long-run relationship among permit prices, total earnings, and total costs. It is also found that, in both the short- and long-run, total earnings have a positive and significant relationship with permit prices, while total costs have a negative and significant relationship. Although the mining exploration in the region has a negative and significant effect on permit prices in the short-run, the effect does not seem to last in the long-run.
