Willingness to Pay for Hosting Formula One
Christian Gjersing Nielsen et al.
What the paper says
Following Carson and Groves’s theoretical framework on incentive compatibility in stated preference surveys, we apply the contingent valuation method with a single-bounded dichotomous referendum-style choice question to estimate the willingness to pay to host a Formula One Grand Prix in Copenhagen, Denmark. Based on a sample of 2,268 respondents answering a web-based questionnaire distributed to a random sample of individuals living in Copenhagen through the Danish public digital post system, we find an annual aggregate welfare improvement in the range of €7.36–13.82 million among the 320,825 households in Copenhagen Municipality, with €9.70 million as our central estimate, not considering potential negative welfare changes from hosting.
