Every year, a significant amount of revenue from tobacco taxes and MSA funding is made available to the United States. States like as Florida, Minnesota, Mississippi, and Texas received money from prior colonies in addition to the MSA fund. Unfortunately, the financing level is at best negligible in comparison to the overall number of cigarettes earned equals earnings. Figure 1 depicts the average state-by-state tobacco control funding in 2008, as well as total tax collections and MSA' income during the time period under discussion. It is unfortunate that, despite the program's effectiveness in lowering smoking rates, the state average spent just 0.09 percent (in 1992) to 4.5 percent (2002) during the research period.
The tobacco business can unavoidably divert attention away from emba
assing and, of course, costly defeated areas, such as public health, by focusing on economic repercussions such as tobacco production, product sales, and tax collection. I'm sure I can accomplish it. It shifts tobacco control from the realm of health policy to the realm of fiscal policy. The fact that the sector is paying attention to its economic argument simply proves the soundness of old adages. Because of this bait-and-switch technique, the public health sector has been compelled to confront the business on their prefe
ed battleground.

In both local and foreign markets, a few businesses dominate the cigarette sector. In reality, over the last 56 years, the tobacco business in the United States has had no new rivals. This is due to the fact that there are several hurdles to entrance into the sector. Aside from the intricate supply chains and distribution required by huge retailers, new entrants into the business will face a slew of rules and significant levies. As a result, industrial rivalry is infrequent, and the motivation to innovate on products and pricing is minimal.
Although the significant health impacts of smoking have been documented for more than 40 years, governments have been hesitant to respond to the expanding epidemic. Despite laudable tobacco control policies in many countries, global tobacco use fatalities continue to rise and are estimated to exceed 10 million per year by 2030. Governments must take a comprehensive strategy to tobacco control in order to reduce smoking rates. This should include a variety of measures, such as: a complete ban on tobacco advertising and promotion; restrictions on smoking in public places and workplaces; long-term tobacco tax increases combined with anti-smoking measures; large, bold health warnings on tobacco products; smoking cessation and health education campaigns; and tobacco regulation based on medical community standards rather than industry standards.

Elapsed time effect model make fixed time effects to avoid the variation in tobacco funding over the time.the model used in the paper consider initial year fixed for the estimation..
The "elapsed time effect" formulation has two benefits over the "cumulative funding effect" formulation. The first is related to the fact that we are interested in the long-run impact of a change in the level of control money in a particular year in that study.
4. When the parameter estimates of three econometric techniques based on Pricing and tax-based models are compared, the magnitudes of the estimates are relatively comparable to their respective partners. It denotes Solving the problem of price homogeneity in the price-based regression may have a minor impact on the parameter estimate.

Unobserved variables that affect the econometric model are friends , friends who use tobacco, Number of friends who use the tobacco,Tobacco user concerning their child health or not .

Tobacco usage is determined and impacted by a variety of factors, including: (1) personal variables (perception, self-image, coworkers) (2) cultural factors (traditional tobacco usage, acculturation, and the history of the tobacco business in many communities), (3) societal elements (society standard); (4) environmental factors (advertising and the economics).

Ordinal co
elation occurs when e
or terms from various (typically neighboring) time periods (or cross-sectional data) are associated. In time series investigations, serial co
elation arises when mistakes are tied to a specific temporal transition to future periods. A positive serial co
elation indicates that e
ors throughout a period are positively connected with e
ors in the subsequent period. Serial co
elation has no influence on the fairness or consistency of the OLS estimators, but it does have an effect on their efficacy. When the chain is positive, the OLS estimates of the standard e
ors are less than the genuine standard e
ors. This would imply that the parameter estimations are more accurate than they actually are. When the null hypothesis should not be rejected, we will be rejected to do so.
Model FE has high auto co
elation compared to RE, This indicate that quantity of tobacco smoking and taxes are high co
elated with previous time period.
9. In the context of a statistical version, specification e
ors imply that at least one of the version's main functions or assumptions is inco
ect. As a result, estimating the econometric model may potentially produce inco
ect or misleading results. Specification e
ors can occur with every statistical model, despite the fact that some styles and estimating procedures are far less prone to them than others. Estimation procedures that are unaffected by particular types of specification e
ors are typically refe
ed to be strong. For example, the pattern median is a significantly more powerful degree of relevant trend than the pattern mean since it is unaffected by the existence of excessive data inside the pattern.
Elasticity, in this context, refers to the responsiveness of quantity requested and quantity provided to price fluctuations. Elasticity is defined as the ratio of the percentage change in one variable to the percentage change in another variable. The change in quantity divided by the change in price sought or provided is stated as a ratio.
The elasticity of demand describes how customers' consumption habits vary in response to a change in the price of a particular commodity. If a change in the price of an item causes a significant change in the amount desired, the demand for that good is said to be highly elastic. For example, if the price of an item reduces 1% while the quantity required rises by 80%, the good is said to be elastic. An inelastic good, on the other hand, is one whose quantity desired does not change significantly as a result of price variations. If we use inco
ect price elasticity variable to measure the people behavior towards cigarette consumption, leads to mislead in a certain way that the findings is inefficient and fails to predict what we want.

Tobacco control variable costs, appear separately to show immediate effect and as an interaction term to reflect the passage of time (t * totfund) is the major policy variable for the cu
ent analysis. While the modern impact is considerable and positive in the FE and RE models, the passage of time has a very significant and negative influence on control expenditure in all models, as predicted, showing that the effect of present periodic control expenses is rising with time. The pooled effect analysis is critical for understanding the influence of tobacco control initiatives in lowering demand. The pooled effect analysis is critical for understanding the influence of tobacco control initiatives in lowering demand. Figure 2 depicts the cumulative effect of reduced tobacco demand. The effects of smoking reduction on demand are represented as a percentage and are based on three econometric modeling methodologies applied to tax regression from 1991 to 2008. 15 The magnitude of the effect is all patterns show a consistent upward trend.
The degree of agreement is shown by the FE and RE models, whereas the clustering models indicate a considerably bigger impact size. In the case of the FE and RE models, the fusion effect is negative (increased demand for tobacco) up to 1998, implying that it takes 7 years after commencing the research to reap the advantages of participating in control programmes.
