This document provides additional results for Mitra and Xu (2020) and is organized as follows. Section A derives the equilibrium wage rule from our model. Section B provides details for the numerical solution of our model. Section C presents results for alternative model specifications. Section...

We present a theory in which limited risk sharing of idiosyncratic labor income risk plays a key role in determining the dynamics of interest rates. Our production-based model relates the cross-sectional distribution of labor income risk to observable aggregate labor market variables. Our model...

We analyze the general equilibrium effects of countercyclical unemployment benefit policies. Our heterogenous-agent model features costly job search with imperfect insurance of unemployment risk and individual savings. Our model predicts: (1) the additional unemployment under a countercyclical...
