摘要 本計畫擬探討不同固定成本的設定,對於產生局部不確定性條件的影響。近期文獻在探討相關議題時,都假設固定成本是直接由中間財產量中扣除。這個設定隱含固定成本(或開辦成本startup costs)完全是由中間財廠商本身所生產的中間財所支付。然而,實際上,開辦成本不見得完全是使用中間財廠商所生產的中間財,它可能包括最終財貨或服務(如廣告支出)。或者,要生產具獨佔力的中間財,廠商必須先做R&D,先開發出新的中間財產品藍圖,以進行中間財生產。而開發新產品藍圖可能需要資本投入,而資本是由最終財所轉換而成。在這個設定下(如Coto-Martinez et al. 2007),固定成本是由中間財廠商的利潤中扣除。 基於此,本計畫擬設立一個一般化的固定成本函數,在這個函數中,中間財廠商的固定成本包括中間財廠商本身所生廠的中間財及最終財廠商所生產的最終財(或前一期最終財所轉換的資本)。並將這個固定成本函數納入近期文獻中,以探討不同的固定成本結構對產生局部不確定性條件的影響。個人預期,隨著最終財的固定成本比例提高,相對於近期文獻考慮固定成本都是中間財,局部不確定愈容易出現。換言之,隨著最終財的固定成本比例提高,出現不確定所需要的規模遞增程度就不需太大。由於近期的實證文獻認為規模遞增程度很小,因此本研究計畫具有潛在的學術價值。
This proposed project intends to examine the role of fixed costs in raising local indeterminacy under dynamic general equilibrium models with monopolistic competition. Recent studies that analyze the condition for the existence of indeterminacy assume that fixed costs of an intermediate good firm are directly deducted from its production. This assumption implies that fixed costs (or the startup costs) are in terms of the intermediate good the firm produces. In other words, the firm utilizes its production as input to start its business. In reality, however, fixed costs may contain both its production as well as final good produced by other producers. Alternatively, the intermediate good firm may need to invent a blueprint before it can produce the intermediate good. Capital good is converted by final good produced in the previous period. In this latter type of the setting, fixed costs are deducted from the intermediate firm’s profit (such as Coto-Martinez et al. 2007). To highlight the role of fixed costs on the condition of indeterminacy, I will propose a generalized function for fixed costs of the intermediate good firm that contains both settings of fixed costs. I expect that an increase in the fraction of final goods in fixed costs can lower the degree of increasing returns-to-scale in raising indeterminacy. Since recent empirical studies have discovered a small degree of increasing returns-to-scale, this proposed project possesses potential contribution to the literature.
