This paper contributes to the GDP-consumption comovement puzzle literature investigating the role of tax evasion in explaining the consumption path after a Marginal Efficiency of Investment shock. We use an otherwise standard medium-scale New Keynesian DSGE model combining tax evasion with...

This paper studies the effects of changes in uncertainty on optimal leverage and investment in a dynamic firm-financing model in which firms have access to complete markets subject to collateral constraints. Entrepreneurs finance projects with their net worth and by issuing state-contingent...

This paper develops an accounting oriented general equilibrium model that represents macro statistical systems by aggregating journal entries of micro accounting. The aim of the model is integrating microeconomics and macroeconomics by the different way from modern macroeconomics. From a reverse...

Why are asset prices so much more volatile and so often detached from their fundamental values? Why does the bursting of financial bubbles depress the real economy? This paper addresses these questions by constructing an infinite-horizon heterogeneous agent general equilibrium model with...

Capital gains play an important, positive role in the inter-temporal allocation of resources, but they can also be a source of economic instability. We analyze a simple overlapping-generations economy with capital goods and irreversible investment. For each vector of initial capital/labor...

This paper investigates quantitative significance of liquidity constraints for asset prices and monetary policy in a monetary economy version of Kiyotaki and Moore (2005). Motivated by the lack of commitment in the intertemporal asset trade, the model economy features limited resalability of...

We study the effects of financial uncertainty on investment dynamics in the U.S. using a vector autoregression with drifting parameters and stochastic volatilities. We find time-varying negative effects of financial uncertainty shocks on investment. These effects have declined in the post-WWII...

This paper contributes to the GDP-consumption co-movement puzzle literature investigating the role of tax evasion in explaining the consumption path after a Marginal Efficiency of Investment shock. We use an otherwise standard medium-scale New Keynesian DSGE model combining tax evasion with...
