摘要
We consider a representative-consumer setting where the ratio (respectively difference) between current consumption and the level of habit yields utility. Money demand is well-defined in the difference-specification but not in the ratio-specification for plausible values of the parameter measuring habit. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
