Optimum Economic Growth In An Aggregative Model Of Capital Accumulation: A Turnpike Theorem, David Cass Nov 1964

Optimum Economic Growth In An Aggregative Model Of Capital Accumulation: A Turnpike Theorem, David Cass

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Recent contributions to the theory of optimum economic growth, for example, in [1], [3], [8] or [10], like Ramsey’s seminal article [6], have been primarily concerned with the implications of maximizing the social welfare generated by the entire stream of future consumption. As an alternative formulation, in this paper it is postulated that only the social welfare associated with future consumption over some finite period is of direct concern; generations beyond the horizon are accounted for only insofar as a lower bound on the terminal capital stock is prescribed. Then, within a closed, aggregative framework, the behavior of growth paths …


A Parametric Simplicial Formulation Of Houthakker's Capacity Method, C. Van De Panne, Andrew B. Whinston Nov 1964

A Parametric Simplicial Formulation Of Houthakker's Capacity Method, C. Van De Panne, Andrew B. Whinston

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

The paper reformulates Houthakker’s capacity method for quadratic programming in the framework of the Simplex and dual methods for quadratic programming, thereby greatly reducing the conceptual and computational complexities of the method. It is shown that the method is applicable for all convex quadratic programming problems, including the case of a semi-definite matrix of the quadratic form and that of constraints in equality form. The method reduces in the linear programming case to a parametric version of the dual method.

Stock Market Indices: A Principal Components Analysis, George J. Feeney, Donald D. Hester Oct 1964

Stock Market Indices: A Principal Components Analysis, George J. Feeney, Donald D. Hester

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

This paper investigates a widely quoted stock market index, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (hereafter DJI), and constructs some alternative indices. Their performances are compared to the DJI. The question of applying the indices to problems of portfolio selection is explored when investors’ utility functions are quadratic in the rate of return. By constructing indices from data collected in different time periods, some conclusions are drawn about the constancy of price and rate of return covariance and correlation matrices of the 30 Dow Jones Industrial stocks over time.

Models Of Technical Progress And The Golden Rule Of Research, Edmond S. Phelps Oct 1964

Models Of Technical Progress And The Golden Rule Of Research, Edmond S. Phelps

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

The primary purpose of this paper is to present a model of technical progress and economic growth from which one can derive a Golden Rule of Research quite analogous to the Golden Rule of Accumulation. The secondary purpose is to discuss various models of technical progress. That there might exist a Golden Rule for research is not surprising since research is a kind of investment – investment in technology – just as “accumulation” denotes investment in tangible capital. Nevertheless “capital” and “technology” differ in important aspects. If, given the technology, the production of commodities is homogeneous of degree one in …

An Experimental Study In Oligopoly, James W. Friedman Sep 1964

An Experimental Study In Oligopoly, James W. Friedman

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

A very general model with which many theories of oligopolistic behavior might be tested would be a useful tool for economists. In the first part of this paper a model is proposed for this role. The model is not developed in the fullest degree of generality, but is presented in the way most relevant to experiments of the type presented in the second part of the paper. The experiments employ a simple market model in which each subject takes the role of a business firm, each firm has only one decision variable under its control (its own price) and the …
