The Transformation Of Ricardo's Principles Through The Addition Of The 'On Machinery' Chapter, John B. Davis

Economics Faculty Research and Publications

It is generally believed that the addition of the "On Machinery" chapter to the third edition of the Principles little changed Ricardo's basic analysis of the accumulation process in early nineteenth century England. however, Ricardo's admission - and reversal of his former opinion - that involuntary unemployment might well occur with the introduction of labor-displacing machinery does alter the relationship between landlords, capitalists, and laborers, as well as change the opportunities for capital accumulation. This paper examines these changes, and their impact upon the conception of the first two editions of the Principles.

Net Present Value Maximization And Imperfections In The Loan Market: A Note, Cynthia Van Hulle

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

There seems to be some confusion in the literature whether or not imperfections in the lending-borrowing market, and in particular, differences in lending and borrowing rates, would destroy shareholder unanimity. The purpose of this note is to show that imperfections in this market are not really relevant to stockholder agreement concerning the optimality of the net present value rule. To do this, the paper uses a new criterion guaranteeing unanimity and which basically only requires that investors are sufficiently competitive, i.e., spanning or the notion of firm competition recently proposed by L. Makowiski [9] generally turn out to be unnecessary …

Stochastic Equilibrium And Turnpike Property: The Discounted Case, Ramon Marimon

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

The existence of the modified golden rule and the turnpike property are proved for a multi-sector stochastic growth model. The (exogenous) stochastic environment is represented by a stationary stochastic process that influences preferences, technology and resources. A social planner maximizes the expected sum of discounted utilities. The conditions required in order to obtain these results, are the natural strengthening of the stability conditions of the deterministic case. As in the deterministic case, the discount factor must be close to one in order to guarantee the almost sure (and in the mean) convergence of optimal interior programs. It is proved that …
