Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, we investigate an optimal consumption and investment problem of an economic agent who faces a welfare constraint; the agent does not accept her expected utility (continuation value) falls below a certain fixed level regardless of the time and state. This optimization problem involves an infinite number of constraints. Using a duality approach, we transform infinitely many constraints into a single constraint and define the dual problem, which becomes a two-dimensional singular control problem. The dual problem provides its associated Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation with a gradient constraint. Under a general class of utility functions, we obtain an explicit solution to the HJB equation and provide optimal strategies by establishing a duality theorem. As an example, we consider hyperbolic absolute risk aversion (HARA) utility, which may incorporate a government subsidy or a basic support, and provide the solution and its implications.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents papers on continuous-time consumption investment models by Suresh Sethi and various co-authors. Sir Isaac Newton said that he saw so far because he stood on the shoulders of gi ants. Giants upon whose shoulders Professor Sethi and colleagues stand are Robert Merton, particularly Merton's (1969, 1971, 1973) seminal papers, and Paul Samuelson, particularly Samuelson (1969). Karatzas, Lehoczky, Sethi and Shreve (1986), henceforth KLSS, re produced here as Chapter 2, reexamine the model proposed by Mer ton. KLSS use methods of modern mathematical analysis, taking care to prove the existence of integrals, check the existence and (where appro priate) the uniqueness of solutions to equations, etc. KLSS find that un der some conditions Merton's solution is correct; under others, it is not. In particular, Merton's solution for aHARA utility-of-consumption is correct for some parameter values and not for others. The problem with Merton's solution is that it sometimes violates the constraints against negative wealth and negative consumption stated in Merton (1969) and presumably applicable in Merton (1971 and 1973). This not only affects the solution at the zero-wealth, zero-consumption boundaries, but else where as well. Problems with Merton's solution are analyzed in Sethi and Taksar (1992), reproduced here as Chapter 3.
Book Synopsis Optimal Consumption and Investment Policies Allowing Consumption Constraints and Bankruptcy by : John P. Lehoczky
Download or read book Optimal Consumption and Investment Policies Allowing Consumption Constraints and Bankruptcy written by John P. Lehoczky and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An agent can distribute his wealth between two investments, one with a fixed rate of return r and the other with a random rate of return (modeled as a diffusion) with mean r. The agent seeks to maximize total discounted utility from consumption over an infinite horizon. Consumption may be constrained from below. Various models for bankruptcy, including welfare, are considered. The agent has a strictly concave utility function for consumption; however, it is shown that the utility function for wealth may have convex portions, thus the agent may be risk seeking. The paper gives a complete treatment of the existence and nonexistence of optimal policies. New theorems for the optimal control of degenerate diffusions are given, as well as explicit formulas for the value function.
Book Synopsis The Welfare Multiplier of Public Infrastructure Investment by : Mr.Giovanni Ganelli
Download or read book The Welfare Multiplier of Public Infrastructure Investment written by Mr.Giovanni Ganelli and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyze the welfare multipliers of public spending (the consumption equivalent change in welfare for one dollar change in public spending) in a DSGE model. The welfare multipliers of public infrastructure investment are positive if infrastructure is sufficiently effective. When the medium-term output multipliers are consistent with the empirical estimates (1-1.4), the welfare multiplier is 0.8. That is, a dollar spent by the government for investment raises domestic welfare by equivalent of 0.8 dollars of private consumption. This suggests that the welfare gains of public infrastructure investment, if chosen wisely, may be substantial.
Book Synopsis Consumption and Investment Optimization Under Constraints by : Thanh Long Nguyen
Download or read book Consumption and Investment Optimization Under Constraints written by Thanh Long Nguyen and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyze a problem of maximization of expected terminal wealth and consumption under constraints in a general financial framework, which includes models with constrained portfolios, labor income and large investor models. By introducing the new finite probability space, as well as a new utility function, the considered problem is converted to the one studied by Pham and Mnif (2002) [48]. By using general optional decomposition under constraints, we can develop a dual formulation under minimal assumption modeled as in Pham and Mnif (2002) [48]. We then are able to prove an existence and uniqueness of an optimal solution to primal problem. Under the assumption that there exists a solution to the corresponding dual problem, an optimal consumption plan can be found by convex duality.

Book Synopsis Household and Economy by : Marc Nerlove
Download or read book Household and Economy written by Marc Nerlove and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Household and Economy: Welfare Economics of Endogenous Fertility deals with welfare economics and the socially optimal population size, as well as the social consequences of individual choice with respect to family size within each generation. The general equilibrium implications of endogenous fertility for a number of issues of population policy are discussed. In addition to their own consumption, the number of children and the utility of each child is assumed to enter the utility function of the parents. Comprised of 10 chapters, this volume begins with a review of social welfare criteria for optimal population size and the static theory of optimal population size, optimal population growth with exogenous fertility, and the theory of endogenous fertility. The reader is then introduced to the basic principles of welfare economics and the economics of externalities, followed by a summary of the traditional theory of household behavior. Subsequent chapters focus on optimal population size according to various social welfare criteria; real and potential externalities generated by the endogeneity of fertility; and the principal alternative reason for having children: to transfer resources from the present to support the future consumption of parents in old age. The book concludes by assessing the implications of endogenous fertility for within-generation income distribution policies and reflecting on the directions in which future research may be fruitful. This monograph will be of value to economists, social scientists, students of welfare economics, and those who wish to understand the contribution of economic analysis to an improved understanding of population policy.

Book Synopsis Jointly Optimal Monetary and Fiscal Policy Rules Under Borrowing Constraints by : Mr. Michael Kumhof
Download or read book Jointly Optimal Monetary and Fiscal Policy Rules Under Borrowing Constraints written by Mr. Michael Kumhof and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the welfare properties of an economy where both monetary and fiscal policy follow simple rules, and where a subset of agents is borrowing constrained. The optimized fiscal rule is far more aggressive than automatic stabilizers, and stabilizes the income of borrowingconstrained agents, rather than output. The optimized monetary rule features super-inertia and a very low coefficient on inflation, which minimizes real wage volatility. The welfare gains of optimizing the fiscal rule are far larger than the welfare gains of optimizing the monetary rule. The preferred fiscal instruments are government spending and transfers targeted to borrowing-constrained agents.

Book Synopsis Guidelines for Constructing Consumption Aggregates for Welfare Analysis by : Angus Deaton
Download or read book Guidelines for Constructing Consumption Aggregates for Welfare Analysis written by Angus Deaton and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In September 2001, staff from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund met with the objective of strengthening collaboration between the two organizations in projects of civil service reform. This strengthened collaboration will have key benefits in ensuring consistency between the conflicting goals of the two organizations, establishing realistic objectives within the reform process, and maintaining a core set of wage and employment data. The principal conclusion arrived at was that World Bank and IMF staff should be engaging in collaboration earlier in the reform process. To guide the collaboration, six foundations were identified. These include: develop a medium-term fiscal framework; foster national ownership by making reforms politically feasible; focus and streamline conditionality; agree on sequencing and timing of reforms; and strengthen data collection. These principals will be tested for effectiveness in several focus countries.
