One paper by Steven Haider and Gary Solon challenged the traditional estimation of this quantity using its current analog as a proxy. Joshua Angrist used CWHS data to study the impacts on this quantity from military service and draft avoidance behavior from the Vietnam War draft lottery. The parameter B in a model that Gary Becker created to estimate this quantity accounts for changes in physical (-5[2])and intellectual capability. Yoram Ben-Porath (-5[1])adapted that (-5[1])model to estimate this quantity into an individual (*) human capital production function, (-5[1])concluding that maximizing this quantity is equivalent to optimally investing in individual economic growth. (0[1]-5[1])Since the late (-5[1])20th century, (-5[1])most labor economists have decomposed the growth of inequality in this quantity into persistent and transitory components. For 10 points, name this quantity (-5[1])that is, on median, (-5[1])2.8 (-5[1])million (-5[3])dollars (10[1])for holders of bachelor’s degrees. (0[1])■END■ (10[10]0[15])
