Young and small firms are typically matched with younger and nonemployed individuals, and they provide these workers with lower earnings compared to other firms. To explore the mechanisms behind these facts, a dynamic model of entrepreneurship is introduced, where individuals can choose not to...

market activities over the business cycle are primarily accommodated by changes in employment rather than in wages and … variations in the price of assets play a pivotal role in explaining variations in employment and in wage rates …

The paper attempts to build a wage equation, bringing in the concept of indivisibility of labor, and aims at finding out how complete wage equation reduces the immediate unemployment rate or the hazard rate of unemployment.This paper formally derives the standard wage equation considering all...

We analyze investment decisions when information is costly, with and without delegation to an agent. We use a rational-inattention model and compare it with a canonical signal-extraction model. We identify three "investment conditions". In "sour" conditions, no information is acquired and no...

We build quadratic labor adjustment costs into an otherwise standard New-Keynesian model of the business cycle and show that this increases output persistence in a similar vein as other models of labor market frictions. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that quadratic labor adjustment costs imply...
