We develop a new approach to the decomposition of income risk within a non- stationary model of intertemporal choice. The approach allows for changes in in- come risk over the life cycle and across the business cycle, allowing for mixtures of persistent and transitory components in the dynamic...

We estimate labour supply elasticities at the micro level and show what we can learn from possibly very heterogeneous elasticities for aggregate behaviour. We consider both intertemporal and intratemporal choices, and identify intensive and extensive responses in a consistent life-cycle...
