Improving the Fire Safety of Cigarettes: An Economic Impact Analysis
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates potential economic consequences of modifying cigarettes to reduce their ignition propensity, focusing on the impact of changing physical characteristics. The author identifies potential impacts of modifying major cigarette components: tobacco blend, paper, and size, and develops a quantitative model for estimating first and second-order impacts. Second-order impacts are those that may result if reducing ignition propensity inadvertently modifies other attributes, such as the cost of producing cigarettes, tobacco farming impacts, smoking-related health impacts, changes in consumer surplus, employment impacts, and excise tax revenue impacts. The book presents case analyses, quantitative results, and implications of the findings. The author concludes that while reducing cigarette ignition propensity has the potential to significantly reduce smoking-related deaths, injuries, and property losses, it is important to consider the potential for unintended consequences due to changes in other cigarette attributes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781528297868_0
