Article Abstract:
A rational expectations growth cycle model that factors in monopolistic competition and and complementarity is developed. An evaluation of the model reveals that expectational indeterminacy between low growth and high growth cycles is determined by monopolistic competition and complementarity between different types of capital goods needing neither externalities nor increasing returns to scale.
