This paper develops a model according to which the costs of business cycles are nontrivial because they reduce the average level of output. The reason is an interaction between job creation costs and an agency problem. The agency problem triggers separations during economic downturns even though...

Although almost nonexistent 15 years ago, there are now numerous papers that analyze models with both aggregate uncertainty and a large number—typically a continuum—of heterogeneous agents. These models make it possible to study whether macroeconomic fluctuations affect different agents...

A new algorithm is developed to solve models with heterogeneous agents and aggregate uncertainty that avoids some disadvantages of the prevailing algorithm that strongly relies on simulation techniques and is easier to implement than existing algorithms. A key aspect of the algorithm is a new...

A new algorithm is developed to solve models with heterogeneous agents and aggregate uncertainty. Projection methods are the main building blocks of the algorithm and – in contrast to the most popular solution procedure – simulations only play a very minor role. The paper also develops a new...

This note describes how the incomplete markets model with aggregate uncertainty in Den Haan et al. [Comparison of solutions to the incomplete markets model with aggregate uncertainty. Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, this issue] is solved using standard quadrature and projection...
