On the Optimal Progressivity of the Income Tax Code

This paper computes the optimal progressivity of the income tax code in a dynamic general equilibrium model with household heterogeneity in which uninsurable labor productivity risk gives rise to a...

Conesa, Juan Carlos, Krueger, Dirk

In this paper we quantitatively characterize the optimal capital and labor income tax in an overlapping generations model with idiosyncratic, uninsurable income shocks, where households also differ...

Optimal response to a transitory demographic shock in Social Security financing

In this paper we quantitatively characterize the optimal capital and labor income tax in an overlapping generations model with idiosyncratic, uninsurable income shocks, where households also differ...

We examine the optimal policy response to a transitory demographic shock that affects negatively the financing of retirement pensions. In contrast to existing literature, we endogenously determine...

Educational attainment and timing of fertility decisions

El presente trabajo analiza desde un punto de vista cuantitativo, mediante un modelo de equilibrio general de generaciones sucesivas, los efectos sobre la economia espanola de eliminar el actual...

This paper focuses on timing of fertility decisions, conditional on the level of educational attainment of parents. Timing of fertility and educational attainment of parents rationalize the negative...

Underground economy and aggregate fluctuations

Juan Carlos Conesa, Carlos Diaz Moreno

This paper explores the role of underground economic activities as an explanation for cross-country differences in registered aggregate fluctuations. In order to do so, we develop a two-sector Real...

Voiting on social security reform with heterogeneous agents

Reforma del sistema de seguridad social y adquisicion de formacion

This paper analyzes the quantitative role of idiosyncratic uncertainty in an economy in which rational agents vote on hypothetical social security reforms. We construct an Overlapping Generations...

Vintage specific learning-by-doing

This paper uses a overlapping generation general equilibrium model to study a reform of the social security system, going from an unfunded to a funded system. We also analyze the effects of this...

Modeling great depressions: the depression in Finland in the 1990s

The quantitative macroeconomics literature has documented that in the basic Overlapping Generations model a privatization of the social security system, going from a Pay-As-You-Go to a Fully Funded...

Juan Carlos Conesa, Timothy J. Kehoe, Kim J. Ruhl

This article is a primer on the great depressions methodology developed by Cole and Ohanian (1999, 2007) and Kehoe and Prescott (2002, 2007). We use growth accounting and simple dynamic general...

Status Quo Problem in Social Security Reforms.

Conesa, Juan Carlos, Garriga, Carlos

Several papers show that a privatization of the social security system will not be politically supported by the current generations. The asymmetry in the timing of welfare gains and losses is what...

Optimal response to a transitory demographic shock in social security financing

Generational policy and the macroeconomic measurement of tax incidence

The authors consider a transitory demographic shock that affects negatively the financing of retirement pensions-that is, workers either would have to pay more or retirees would receive less. In...

Taxing Capital? Not a Bad Idea after All!

In this paper we show that the generational accounting framework used in macroeconomics to measure tax incidence can, in some cases, yield inaccurate measurements of the tax burden across age...

Generational policy and the macroeconomic measurement of tax incidence

We quantitatively characterize the optimal capital and labor income tax in an overlapping generations model with idiosyncratic, uninsurable income shocks and permanent productivity differences of...
