Indeterminacy, aggregate demand and the real business cycle
Article Abstract:
A study shows that in an under indeterminate real business cycle (RBC) model with capacity utilization and mild increasing returns to scale, aggregate demand shocks can play a pivotal role in explaining actual economic fluctuations. The analysis brings the RBC theory into closer conformity with the actual data.
