Many developing countries are characterised by a large share of home production. Households allocate their time on both market and non-market activities. The introduction of a tax on labour or capital income induces people to divert from market production to home production. Furthermore,...

We study the time paths of different variables on the way to the analytically obtained long-run autarky equilibrium for a 2-sector, 2-factor overlapping generations economy under different initial conditions and parameter confıgurations, and investigate implications of the initial conditions...

The purpose of this paper is to study intergenerational optimal resources sharing when the social planer can choose the retirement age in addition to consumptions and investment. We use the extension of the Diamond analysis by Hu [1979] that incorporates endogenous retirement age. We found that...

Many developing countries are characterized by a large share of home production. Households allocate their time on both market and non-market activities. The introduction of a tax on labor or capital income induces people to divert from market production to home production. Furthermore, children...

The Ramsey-Romer model of endogenous growth is extended to allow for holdings of real money balances and government debt as well as capital and for non-interconnected generations of households. Tax-financed increases in government consumption and debt depress growth prospects and boost...

In an overlapping-generations model with non-constant population growth, households own a natural renewable resource and have a family-altruism resource bequest motive. The natural resource can be either extracted and sold to firms, or bequeathed to children to increase their adult disposable...

In the real world, two types of education investment may exist. One of these contributes to labor skills, and the other does not, corresponding to human capital and signal invest- ment, respectively. The question is how individuals determine the ratio of these alternative investments. In...

This paper analyzes the growth and employment effects of dynamic fiscal policies in an overlapping generations model with endogenous growth and imperfect labour markets. With balanced-budget policies, the modelled closed economy grows at a constant rate which is the higher, the lower are the...

Modern financial repression in advanced economies does not rely on increasing seigniorage revenue, but mostly rests upon regulatory measures to enlarge the demand for public debt that delivers extremely low or negative real interest rate. In this paper we propose the extension of the overlapping...
