This paper studies how the assumption of quasi-geometric (quasi-hyperbolic) discounting affects the individual consumption-savings behavior in the context of the standard one-sector neoclassical growth model with heterogeneous agents. The agents are subject to idiosyncratic shocks and face...

This paper modifies the standard one-sector growth model with uninsurable idiosyncratic risk and liquidity constraints to include multiple types of quasi-geometric consumers. For a calibrated version of the model, we show that a modest difference between the quasi-geometric discounting...
