- Distributional Effects
- The per-unit effect function is sharply non-uniform and bidirectional: workers who keep their jobs at the higher wage gain, while marginal workers in low-margin firms may lose hours or jobs, and the direction is keyed to identifiable properties (skill, local labor-market tightness) — the prime's structural-heterogeneity invariant.
