Abstract: This paper examines the effectiveness of input controls in a fishery in preventing rent dissipation. The paper shows that conventional elasticities cannot be used to measure input substitution when firms face input restrictions. The paper presents a new elasticity measure and illustrates its usefulness with data from the British Columbia salmon fishery
