Intertemporal Substitution in Macroeconomics (Classic Reprint) by N. Gregory Mankiw Pdf

Excerpt from Intertemporal Substitution in Macroeconomics Modern neoclassical theories of the business cycle posit that aggregate fluctuations in consumption and employment are the consequence of dynamic optimizing behavior by economic agents who face no quantity constraint. In this paper, we estimate an explicit model of this type. In particular, we assume that the observed fluctuations correspond to the decisions of an optimizing representative individual. This individual has a stable utility function which is additively separable over time but not necessarily additively separable in consumption and leisure. We estimate three first order conditions which represent three margins on which the individual is optimizing. He can trade off present consumption for future consumption, present leisure for future leisure and present consumption for present leisure. Our results show that the aggregate U.S. data are extremely reluctant to be characterized by a model of this type. Not only are the overidentifying restrictions statistically rejected but, In addition, the estimated utility function is often not concave. Even when it is concave the estimates imply that either consumption or leisure is an inferior good. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Optimal Consumption With Intertemporal Substitution I by Ayman Hindy Pdf

Excerpt from Optimal Consumption With Intertemporal Substitution I: The Case of Certainty These non-time-additive utility functions offer intuitively appealing notions of interactions between past and current consumption. They are also mathematically tractable. Optimal con sumption policies can be characterized using dynamic programming. For particular functional forms of the felicity function, one can even have closed form expressions for these policies. Unfortunately, these utility functions fail to exhibit one key economic property that underlies much of our intuition about the behavior of asset prices over time in the absence of arbitrage possibilities.

Intertemporal Substitution in Consumption Revisited by Zuliu Hu Pdf

Some of the highly controversial questions in macroeconomics critically hinge on the value of a single parameter of consumer preference--the elasticity of intertemporal substitution. This paper provides new estimates of this parameter for individual G-7 and a panel of twenty OECD countries. We find that single equation GMM estimates are typically small and imprecise, consistent with Hall's (1988) finding from the U.S. data. Estimation of a system of equations that takes into account the cross-equation restrictions implied by theory, however, generally gives larger and better determined values for the parameter. The panel procedure also yields relatively large estimates. Overall our multi-country results contradict the hypothesis of zero intertemporal substitution.

EBOOK: Macroeconomics by Rudiger Dornbusch,Stanley Fischer,Richard Startz Pdf

Dornbusch, Fischer, and Startz has been a long-standing, leading intermediate macroeconomic theory text since its introduction in 1978. This revision retains most of the text's traditional features, including a middle-of-the-road approach and very current research, while updating and simplifying the exposition. A balanced approach explains both the potential and limitations of economic policy. Macroeconomics employs a model-based approach to macroeconomic analysis and demonstrates how various models are connected with the goal of giving students the capacity to analyze current economic issues in the context of an economic frame of reference. The only pre-requisite continues to be principles of economics.

This new edition of the popular text by David Begg and Gianluigi Vernasca enables the reader to understand today's economic environment by examining the underlying theory and applying it to real-world situations.
