In a standard dynamic stochastic general equilibrium framework, with sticky prices, the cross sectional distribution of output and inflation across a population of firms is studied. The only form of heterogeneity is confined to the probability that the ith changes its prices in response to a...

One of the standard requirements of company law is the restriction of distributions to shareholders in order to protect the legitimate interests of the company's creditors. As lawful dividends don't have to be paid back when the company runs into losses at a later stage, we need a measuring rod...
