Aggregation under Complete Markets
Abstract
This paper proves a complete market aggregation result for a multiple good economy in which the consumers have time-additive, von Neumann–Morgenstern utility functions. This result applies to all concave intraperiod functions, and provides a contrast to many of the results in the microeconomics literature which depend on such stringent assumptions as linear Engel curves (Copyright: Elsevier)Download Info
