Resumen
Descripción
The use of willingness to pay as a welfare criteria has several inherent weaknesses. Its potential for causing inequitable redistribution of income as well as ambiguity in project evaluation is explored. An empirical example is offered in a natural resource context. A travel cost model which includes both time and money costs is used for valuation and produces ambiguous results.
