The Impact of Fiscal Policy on Macroeconomic Variables: New Evidence from a DSGE Model
The purpose of this article is to analyze the macroeconomic impacts of fiscal policy in Iran using a new-Keynesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model. The model takes into account distortionary taxations on wage, dividend, and consumption, while government expenditures are broken down into consumption of goods and services, and investment. The model is calibrated for Iran based...
متن کاملGraduate Macro Theory II: Notes on Medium Scale DSGE Models
Households in this model consume goods, supply labor, hold money, and save through both bonds and capital (the households own the capital stock). The household block is a little different from how we’ve been working thus far. We assume that there is variable utilization of capital, ut. We assume that the household chooses ut and then leases capital services, k̂t = utkt to the firms, who in turn ...
متن کاملEstimating a medium–scale DSGE model with expectations based on small forecasting models
In this paper we evaluate the empirical performance of a medium–scale DSGE model (Smets andWouters 2007) when agents form expectations about forward variables by using small forecasting models. Agents learn about these simple AR and VAR forecasting models through Kalman filter estimation and they combine them either using a prediction basedweighting scheme or fixed weights. The results indicate...
متن کاملFiscal Multipliers in Japan
In this paper, we estimate government purchase multipliers for Japan, following the approach used previously for a panel of OECD countries (Auerbach and Gorodnichenko, 2013). This approach allows multipliers to vary smoothly according to the state of the economy and uses real-time forecast data to purge policy innovations of their predictable components. For a sample period extending from 1960 ...
متن کاملFiscal Policy Multipliers in an RBC Model with Learning∗
Using the standard real business cycle model with lump-sum taxes, we analyze the impact of fiscal policy when agents form expectations using adaptive learning rather than rational expectations (RE). The output multipliers for government purchases are significantly higher under learning, and fall within empirical bounds reported in the literature, which is in sharp contrast to the implausibly lo...
