The aim of this paper is to study the role of progressive tax rules on the allocations of steady state and the stability properties in a Ramsey economy with heterogeneous households and borrowing constraints. Since labor supply in elastic, considering different tax rates on capital and labor...

low degrees of capital-labor substitution, we show that indeterminacy requires not only a lower bound for the elasticity … condition for indeterminacy and larger increasing returns promote sadlle-path stability when inputs are high substitutes. Using …

This paper examines the effects of taxation on long-run growthin a two-sector endogenous growth model with (i) physical capitalas an input in the education sector and (ii) leisure as anadditional argument in the utility function. The analysis of theeffects of taxation - including income...

Firms devote significant resources to maintain and repair thei existing capital. Within a real business cycle model featuring arguably small aggregate increasing returns, this paper assesses the stabilizing effects of fiscal policies with a maintenance expenditure allowance. In this setup, firms...

In his seminal contribution, Tirole (1985) shows that an overlapping generations economy may monotonically converges to a steady state with a positive rational bubble, characterized by the dynamically efficient golden rule. The issue we address is whether this monotonic convergence to an...

We calibrate an incomplete markets large scale OLG model to the US income and wealth distribution and examine the effects of alternative government debt levels and adjustment policies on macroeconomic aggregates and welfare. We find that the government should hold negative debt. Due to the high...

We provide a methodology to study the role of market distortions on the emergence of indeterminacy and bifurcations … classes of distortions responsible for indeterminacy. Our methodology consists in introducing general specifications for the … distortions influence the range of values for the elasticity of inputs substitution under which local indeterminacy and …

In contrast, when the full employment country is sufficiently big, local indeterminacy, and … fluctuations (associated with local indeterminacy and bifurcations) are possible with smaller externalities, whatever the relative …
