The Effect Of Government Deficits On Consumption And Interest Rates: A Two Equation Approach, Dean D. Croushore Apr 1989

The Effect Of Government Deficits On Consumption And Interest Rates: A Two Equation Approach, Dean D. Croushore

Economics Faculty Publications

Single-equation estimation of the consumption function often is used in testing the Ricardian equivalence theorem. This approach may be misleading, as effects on interest rates usually are ignored. This paper proposes simultaneous estimation of consumption and investment equations, with the interest rate serving to equilibrate the market. Five existing studies are replicated and subjected to sensitivity tests. The results show that the interest rate is important in the consumption function. The Ricardian equivalence theorem is tested, but the results are mixed.

Murray Weidenbaum Publications

Compared to most other developed Western nations, the United States relies far less heavily on consumption-based taxes. In practice, much of the impact of shifting to a higher consumption tax would depend on how the tax is structured. The two major policy alternatives are an expenditures tax levied on total purchases within an accounting period or a value-added tax collected on each purchase.
