Intertemporal Elasticity of Substitution with Leisure Margin

This paper investigates whether leisure time definitions matter in the estimation of the intertemporal elasticity of substitution of consumption (IES) by using a utility specification that allows interaction between consumption and leisure time. We find that the IES estimated using a narrowly defined leisure measure that excludes quasi-leisure activities is larger than that estimated using nonm...

Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution: An Investigation in Iran

We[1] present estimates of the Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution (EIS) for Iranian households using synthetic cohort panels based on household micro-data. Results show significant difference with the common values used in Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models which are originally based on estimated values for developed countries. We show that this difference has important ...

Is the Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution Constant?∗

This paper shows that the CRRA specification of intertemporal preferences (implying a constant elasticity of intertemporal substitution, or EIS), imposes surprising limitations on within period budget allocations. Consequently, the constant EIS assumption can be tested with demand data. In fact, the parameter of the CRRA utility function is pinned down completely by the shape of Engel curves; i...

Estimating the Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution with Household-Specific Portfolios

Abstract This paper estimates the elasticity of intertemporal substitution (EIS), allowing for household-specific portfolio. Previous studies that estimated the EIS used financial indexes as a proxy for the risky return on a representative household portfolio. According to the latest data from the 2004 Survey of Consumer Finances, however, the median US stockholders who own stocks directly hold...

A Tax-Based Estimate of the Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution

One of the most important behavioral parameters in macroeconomics is the elasticity of intertemporal substitution (EIS). Starting with the seminal work of Hall (1978), researchers have used an Euler equation framework to estimate the EIS, relating the growth rate of consumption to the after-tax interest rate facing consumers. This large literature has, however, produced very mixed results, perh...
