概要 This paper presents a tractable general equilibrium model with habit-forming consumption and labor/leisure choices, thereby analyzing the relation between the propensity to consume out of wealth (PTC) and aggregate consumption. I get the findings that are not suggested by the Ramsey model. (i) In the long run, a high PTC evolves into high (low) levels of aggregate consumption if habits are harmful (beneficial). (ii) In reducing consumption, habit persistence induces a consumer to maintain a higher PTC in the short run than in the long run. That is, the Duesenberry's ratchet effect is explained.
