Abstract
How researchers treat the opportunity cost of time substantially influences recreation demand
parameter and welfare estimates. This paper presents a utility-theoretic and implementable
approach, estimating the shadow value of time jointly with recreation demands for coastal
activities, using a generalization of the semilog demand system in a two-constraint model.
