The macroeconomics of TANSTAAFL
Grossmann, Volker; Steger, Thomas M.; Trimborn, Timo - 2011
This paper shows that dynamic inefficiency can occur in dynamic general equilibrium models with fully optimizing, infinitely-lived households even in a situation with underinvestment. We identify necessary conditions for such a possibility and illustrate it in a standard R&D-based growth model....

Trade retaliation in a monetary-trade model
Whalley, John; Yu, Jun; Zhang, Shunming - 2009
We explore how outcomes of trade policy retaliation (Nash tariff games) are affected when trade simultaneously takes places geographically across countries and through time via financial intermediation. In such models deficits and surpluses in goods trade are endogenously determined, and...

Tests of policy ineffectiveness in macroeconometrics
Pesaran, M. Hashem; Smith, Ron - 2014
This paper proposes tests of policy ineffectiveness in the context of macroeconometric rational expectations models. It is assumed that there is a policy intervention that takes the form of changes in the parameters of a policy rule, and that there are sufficient observations before and after...

Macroeconomics with a thick pen
Gronwald, Marc; Jin, Xin - 2023
This paper introduces two co-movement measures based on the Thick Pen Transform into the macroeconomic literature: the Thick Pen Measure of Association (TPMA) as well as Multi-Thickness Thick Pen Measure of Association (MTTPMA). Both measures are non-parametric, time-varying, and flexible....

Multiple pollutants, uncovered sectors, and suboptimal environmental policies
Fullerton, Don; Karney, Dan - 2014
In our analytical general equilibrium model where two polluting inputs can be substitutes or complements in production, we study the effects of a tax on one pollutant in two cases: one where both pollutants face taxes and the second where the other pollutant is subject to a permit policy. In...

Stranded assets, the social cost of carbon, and directed technical change : macroeconomic dynamics of optimal climate policy
Ploeg, Frederick van der; Rezai, Armon - 2016 - September 2014, revised February 2016
The tractable general equilibrium model developed by Golosov et al. (2014), GHKT for short, is modified to allow for stock-dependent fossil fuel extraction costs and partial exhaustion of fossil fuel reserves, a negative impact of global warming on growth, mean reversion in climate damages,...

Competitive markets, collective decisions and group formation
Gersbach, Hans; Haller, Hans - 2003
We consider a general equilibrium model where groups operating in a competitive market environment can have several members and make efficient collective consumption decisions. Individuals have the option to leave the group and make it on their own or join another group. We study the effect of...

Nonlinear tax incidence and optimal taxation in general equilibrium
Sachs, Dominik; Tsyvinski, Aleh; Werquin, Nicolas - 2016
We study the incidence and the optimal design of nonlinear income taxes in a Mirrleesian economy with a continuum of endogenous wages. We characterize analytically the incidence of any tax reform by showing that one can mathematically formalize this problem as an integral equation. For a CES...
