The authors incorporate a renewable resource into an overlapping generations model with standard, well behaved utility and constant returns to scale production functions. Besides being a factor of production the resource serves as a store of value. They characterize dynamics, efficiency and...

We consider the issue of steady-state optimal factor taxation in a Ramsey-type dynamic general equilibrium setting with two distinct distortions: i) taxes on capital and labour are the only available tax instruments for raising revenues, and ii) labour markets are subject to a static...
