Farmer and Wendner (2004) consider the sensitivity of policy effects, as implied by dynamic multi-sector computable general equilibrium models, with respect to the specification of capital and investment aggregation. They demonstrate that (small) differences in the specification of capital and...

Dynamic multi-sector computable general equilibrium (CGE) models often utilize investment aggregation according to fixed shares. The question is, do these models come to the same policy conclusions as CGE models that derive sectoral investment shares by optimal household decisions in a framework...

This paper characterizes the existence and stability properties of steady state solutions as well as the nature of transition paths of a two-sector growth model with heterogeneous capital. It compares the properties of a Cobb-Douglas-Leontief economy with heterogeneous capital with the...

The pronounced increase in external imbalances in the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) during the years running up to 2008 is traditionally explained by financial integration through the common currency. This paper examines in a one-good, two-country overlapping generations' model,...
