This Paper explores the stability properties of the steady state in the standard two-sector real business cycle model with a sector-specific externality in the capital-producing sector. When the steady state is stable then equilibrium is indeterminate and stable sunspots are possible. We find...

low degrees of capital-labor substitution, we show that indeterminacy requires not only a lower bound for the elasticity … condition for indeterminacy and larger increasing returns promote sadlle-path stability when inputs are high substitutes. Using …

This paper shows, in the benchmark one-sector Ramsey model, that indeterminacy and sunspots may occur when … the results are the general formulations of both preferences and technology that we consider. In particular, indeterminacy … positively sloped, indeterminacy does not necessarily require the equilibrium wage-hours locus to be upward sloping. Copyright …

Slovakia is one of the countries with the highest and fastest propensity to consume in sector of households. In the development of propensity to consume we can distinguish the period of forced increase in consumer preferencies and the period of voluntary increase. The forced increase was a...

Constant returns to scale, always a simplifying assumption, is often also much more: many important results depend critically on the very special properties of this class of production function. The author provides a unified set of simple proofs for most of the crucial analytical properties of...

In this paper we investigate the effects of tax competition in a simple endogenous growth model with elastic labor supply. Our analysis focuses on two issues. First, we show that all taxes, i.e. on capital, labor, and consumption, are harmful for growth. Second, we derive the optimal tax policy....
