This paper develops an R&D-growth model and calibrates the model to aggregate data of the US economy to quantify a structural relationship between patent length, R&D and consumption. Under parameter values that match the empirical flow-profit depreciation rate of patents and other key features...

This study examines growth cycles in a simple discrete-time two-country model of in- novation. In this setting, we find … that there are two key driving forces that give rise to cycles. They are perfect international capital mobility and perfect … international knowledge spillovers. In addition, this study shows that the opening of trade can create cycles in both countries …

In general, empirical studies on economics rely on the assumption of constant capitalshare of income both at the aggregate level and at the sector level. However, there is noempirical evidence supporting the constancy of capital share at the sector level. In thispaper, using Colombian data, we...

Past experiences and social forces have been incorporated into tastes in order to analyze various microeconomic issues. We use these extended preferences to model the making of standard-of-living aspirations and study their effect on macroeconomic variables. We concentrate first on consumption...
