Is the Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution Constant?∗
This paper shows that the CRRA specification of intertemporal preferences (implying a constant elasticity of intertemporal substitution, or EIS), imposes surprising limitations on within period budget allocations. Consequently, the constant EIS assumption can be tested with demand data. In fact, the parameter of the CRRA utility function is pinned down completely by the shape of Engel curves; i...
متن کاملA Stochastic Non-Homogeneous Constant Elasticity of Substitution Production Function as an Inverse Problem: A Non-Extensive Entropy Estimation Approach
The document proposes a new entropy-based approach for estimating the parameters of nonlinear and complex models, i.e. those whose no transformation renders linear in parameters. Presently, for estimating such class of functions, various iterative technics like the Gauss Newton algorithm are applied and completed by the least square methods approaches. Due to conceptual nature of such methods, ...
متن کاملHow to Explain Ubiquity of Constant Elasticity of Substitution (CES) Production and Utility Functions Without Explicitly Postulating CES
In many situations, the dependence of the production or utility on the corresponding factors is described by the CES (Constant Elasticity of Substitution) functions. These functions are usually explained by postulating two requirements: an economically reasonable postulate of homogeneity (that the formulas should not change if we change a measuring unit) and a less convincing CSE requirement. I...
متن کاملLecture Notes on Constant Elasticity Functions
1 CES Utility In many economic textbooks the constant-elasticity-of-substitution (CES) utility function is defined as: U (x, y) = (αx ρ + (1 − α)y ρ) It is a tedious but straightforward application of Lagrangian calculus to demonstrate that the associated demand functions are: x(p x , p y , M) = α p x σ M α σ p 1−σ x + (1 − α) σ p 1−σ y and y(p x , p y , M) = 1 − α p y σ M α σ p 1−σ x + (1 − α)...
متن کاملEstimate of Armington substitution elasticity for fishery products in Iran
Abstract Nowadays, fishery and aquaculture products form an important fraction of the protein requirement and food of many people on the earth. The hike in prices of these essential products seems necessary owing to the increase in demand and consumption of these products in the country. The price transmission from the international market to the domestic market of tunas was investigated in t...
