TY - JOUR TI - Stability analysis in a monetary model with a varying intertemporal elasticity of substitution T2 - The ICFAI Journal of Monetary Economics VL - 7 IS - 2 AU - Gomes, O. PY - 2009 SP - 32-41 SN - 0972-9291 UR - http://www.iupindia.in/Monetary_Economics.asp AB - Models dealing with monetary policy are generally based on microfoundations that characterize the behaviour of representative agents (households and firms). To explain the representative consumer behaviour, it is generally assumed a utility function in which the intertemporal elasticity of substitution is constant. Recent literature casts some doubts about the relevance of considering such a constant elasticity value. In this note, we explore the new Keynesian monetary policy model under the assumption that the elasticity of substitution changes with expectations regarding real economic performance. As a result, one observes that some combinations of parameter values allow for a stable fixed point outcome, while other combinations of parameters are compatible with cycles of various periodicities and even a-periodic fluctuations.
