Efficient Endogenous Fluctuations in Two-Sector OLG Model
We consider a two-sector two-good two-periods overlapping generations model with inelastic labor, consumption in both period of life and homothetic CES preferences. There are two consumption goods, one pure (non-durable) consumption and one consumable (durable) capital good which can be either consumed or invested. Assuming gross substitutability and a capital intensive pure consumption good, w...
متن کاملOptimal Taxation in Life-Cycle Economies
We use a very standard life-cycle growth model, in which individuals have a labor-leisure choice in each period of their lives, to prove that an optimizing government will almost always find it optimal to tax or subsidize interest income. The intuition for our result is straightforward. In a life-cycle model the individual’s optimal consumption-work plan is almost never constant and an optimizi...
متن کاملIdeas versus rival human capital: Industry evidence on growth models
Using 1959—1991 growth rates for 449 4-digit US manufacturing industries, I test ‘idea’ and ‘rival human capital’ models of endogenous growth. I find the following: First, TFP growth is faster in industries that are more intensive in capital and intermediate goods and less intensive in labor, favoring idea models over rival human capital models. Second, industries with rapidly declining prices ...
متن کاملAppropriate Labor income and Capital gain tax rates functions extraction based on Overlapping Generation Models: Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) approach
In this study, using the overlapping generation (OLG (model and the Stochastic Dynamic General Equilibrium (DSGE) approach, the optimal form of labor income tax rate and capital income tax functions is extracted for the economy of Iran using annual time series data during 1357 to 1397. The results of comparing the calibration and simulation of the designed model show that the optimal functions ...
متن کامل08 Effects of the Import of Consumption, Intermediate and Capital Goods on Transmission of Crude Oil Price Volatility to the Industry and Mining Sector in Iran
In this research, the DCC model is estimated to calculate dynamic correlation series between crude oil price and growth of Industry and Mine sector during 1367:1-1392:4. Then, Macroeconomic variables which can explain the dynamic correlation are analyzed as variables of contagion. So, the import, as an effective and affected variable from crude oil price, is separated to real import of consumpt...
