Business cycle fluctuations and learning-by-doing externalities in a one-sector model

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-sector Ramsey-type growth model with inelastic labor and learning-by-doing externalities based on cumulative gross investment is considered, which is assumed, in accordance with Arrow (1962), to be a better index of experience than the average capital stock.

Markup Variation and Endogenous Fluctuations in the Price of Investment Goods

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple structural decomposition of movements in the price of investment goods into exogenous and endogenous sources is presented, where the endogenous uctuations arise in the presence of countercyclical markups which vary dierently across the consumption and investment sectors.

Designing monetary and Fiscal policy rules in a New Keynesian model with rule-of-thumb consumers

TL;DR: In this paper, the determinacy properties of monetary and fiscal policy rules in a small-scale New Keynesian model were studied, and the mix of fiscal and monetary policies that guarantees equilibrium determinacy is sensitive to the exact values of the parameters of the model.

Forecasting the South African economy: a hybrid‐DSGE approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an estimable hybrid model that combines the micro-founded DSGE model with the flexibility of the atheoretical VAR model, based on a recursive estimation using the Kalman filter algorithm.

Pension Policies and Lifetime Uncertainty in an Applied General Equilibrium Model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an overlapping generations model of a small open economy to explore the efficiency effects and intergenerational redistribution effects of several policy options aimed at reducing the burden of pay-as-you-go (PAYG) contributions on labor income.

Distribution of the Estimators for Autoregressive Time Series with a Unit Root

TL;DR: In this article, the limit distributions of the estimator of p and of the regression t test are derived under the assumption that p = ± 1, where p is a fixed constant and t is a sequence of independent normal random variables.

A Contribution to the Theory of Economic Growth

TL;DR: In this paper, a model of long run growth is proposed and examples of possible growth patterns are given. But the model does not consider the long run of the economy and does not take into account the characteristics of interest and wage rates.

Increasing Returns and Long-Run Growth

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a fully specified model of long-run growth in which knowledge is assumed to be an input in production that has increasing marginal productivity, which is essentially a competitive equilibrium model with endogenous technological change.

On the mechanics of economic development

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the prospects for constructing a neoclassical theory of growth and international trade that is consistent with some of the main features of economic development, and compare three models and compared to evidence.
