متن کاملUnemployment and indeterminacy
Using an efficiency-wage model, we examine the relationship between indeterminacy and unemployment insurance. It is shown that the less unemployment insurance is, the more likely equilibrium is to be indeterminate. Equilibrium can be indeterminate even without externalities or increasing returns, which makes a sharp contrast to the recent literature on indeterminacy. Our result is based on the ...
متن کاملIndeterminacy and costly unemployment
In this paper, we extend the finance constrained economy proposed by Woodford (1986) to incorporate unions, imperfectly insured unemployment and transfers. We show that this simple extension of the Woodford model changes drastically its stability conditions and local dynamics around the deterministic steady state. By contrast to most related models in the literature, we find that sunspots and d...
متن کاملThe impact of unemployment insurance taxes on wages
This paper examines the incidence of state unemployment insurance taxes on wages paid to workers in various demographic groups. The empirical work matches state level measures of unemployment insurance tax and benefit variables to data aggregated from the Current Population Survey on worker earnings for the period 1992 to 2002. Econometric evidence presented in the paper supports the paper’s ma...
متن کاملIndeterminacy, Bifurcations, and Unemployment Fluctuations
We incorporate imperfectly insured unemployment in the finance constrained economy proposed by Woodford (1986), by introducing unions and unemployment benefits financed by labor taxation. We show that this simple extension of the Woodford model changes drastically its stability conditions and local dynamics around the steady state. In fact, in contrast to related models in the literature, we fi...
