Theories from Fisher to Hall assume that consumers are rational and act to maximize lifetime ,按照終生效用最大化來(lái)采取行動(dòng)。 ? PIH: current ine is subject to random, transitory fluctuations. 現(xiàn)期收入會(huì)容易出現(xiàn)隨機(jī)的,暫時(shí)性的波動(dòng)。 slide 34 CHAPTER 16 Consumption The Permanent Ine Hypothesis ? due to Milton Friedman (1957) ? Y = Y P + Y T where Y = current ine Y P = permanent ine average ine, which people expect to persist into the future Y T = transitory ine temporary deviations from average ine slide 35 CHAPTER 16 Consumption The Permanent Ine Hypothesis ? 消費(fèi)者面對(duì)收入暫時(shí)波動(dòng)時(shí),會(huì)使用儲(chǔ)蓄和借款來(lái)平穩(wěn)消費(fèi) Consumers use saving amp。 Across households, ine varies more than wealth, so highine households should have a lower APC than lowine households. ?在長(zhǎng)期里,總財(cái)富和收入同時(shí)增長(zhǎng), APC穩(wěn)定。 ? 宣布未來(lái)減稅 ?意味著未來(lái)時(shí)期的可分配收入增加。 …and her consumption may behave as in the Keynesian theory even though she is rational amp。 substitution effects. 也許,利息率對(duì)當(dāng)期的消費(fèi)根本沒(méi)有影響。 ? Fisher: 當(dāng)期的消費(fèi)僅取決于終生收入的現(xiàn)值,由于消費(fèi)者可以跨期借貸,獲得收入的時(shí)間是無(wú)關(guān)緊要的。 ? 消費(fèi)者選擇受到 an intertemporal budget constraint, 為當(dāng)期和未來(lái)消費(fèi)提供所有資源的衡量尺度。slide 0 CHAPTER 16 Consumption ?consumption slide 1 CHAPTER 16 Consumption 在本章,你將學(xué)到以下內(nèi)容 … 最經(jīng)典消費(fèi)理論的介紹 , 包括 : ?

Average propensity to consume (APC ) falls as ine rises.
