題名: | On-the-job learning and news-driven business cycles | 作者: | 賴景昌 Chen, K.-J. Lai, Ching-Chong |

The new recruits can generate an additional stream of output production in all future periods, and the firm`s labor demand is thus characterized by the forward-looking property. Therefore, the firm is motivated to hire more new recruits in advance in response to good news about future productivity. Once the increase in labor demand is greater than the decrease in labor supply caused by the income effect, the coincident rise in consumption and employment can be driven by the news shock. When such a channel is paired with investment adjustment costs and the endogenous capacity utilization rate, this paper provides a plausible explanation for simultaneous booms in current consumption, investment, output, and employment to match the empirical evidence under the news shock. © 2015 The Ohio State University. | 關聯: | Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, 47(2月3日), 261-294 | 資料類型: | article | DOI: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/jmcb.12176 |
