A General Equilibrium Analysis of the Supply of Capital
نویسنده
چکیده
The point of this paper is that if output is durable then optimal behavior of a supplier is characterized by production smoothing. Durability of goods (such as capital) has opposite effects on the supply of the goods. Higher durability on the one hand raises the variability of investment demand for the goods by lowering the user’s cost, which tends to raise the variability of supply; on the other hand it lowers the expected future demand for the goods, which tends to reduce the variability of supply. These opposite effects of durability manifest in economies where suppliers of durable goods opt to use inventories to buffer demand shocks. Due to inventory adjustment and rational expectation, the variability of production can be reduced both absolutely and relative to sales if output is durable. JEL Classification: E22, E23, E32.

Abstract T he return of capital is fundamental to the intertemporal allocation of resources by changing the consumption behavior and capital accumulation over time. Taxation on return of capital increases the marginal product of capital, meaning that capital stock is lower than when capital is not taxed, which results decreased growth and welfare in steady state. This pape...
