【主题】Fiscal Policy Stabilization: Purchases or Transfers?( R. Mehrotra, Working Paper , 2014)
【摘要】Both government purchases and transfers figure prominently as tools for counteracting recessions. However, representative agent models rule out transfers by construction. This paper builds a borrower-lender model with credit spreads and examines both the purchases and transfers multiplier. Under flexible prices, transfers affect output through wealth effects on labor supply and carry small multipliers. Under sticky prices, both multipliers depend on the degree of monetary accommodation. When the zero lower bound is binding, both purchases and transfers carry multipliers above unity, but the transfer multiplier relative to the purchases multiplier is increasing in the debt-elasticity of the credit spread.
