متن کاملConsumption Inequality and Family Labor Supply
In this paper we examine the link between wage inequality and consumption inequality using a life cycle model that incorporates household consumption and family labor supply decisions. We derive analytical expressions based on approximations for the dynamics of consumption, hours, and earnings of two earners in the presence of correlated wage shocks, non-separability and asset accumulation deci...
متن کاملFamily Labor Supply and Aggregate Saving
I study the impact of idiosyncratic risk on savings and employment in a small open economy populated by two-member families.

Because of market incompleteness and information asymmetries, this cost coupled with labor market frictions can generate multiple equilibria. In particular, there might be one equilibrium with hi...

The correlation of preference between spouses is also taken into account. Elasticit...

The model predicts negative labor supply elasticities for secondary workers at low wage rates and positive ones at ...
