Static models of the Edgeworth cycle

Author

  • de Roos, Nicolas

Abstract

We provide a reduced form model that encompasses a range of static explanations for the Edgeworth cycle. The model distills two common features that lie behind a range of intuitive explanations for Edgeworth cycles: discontinuity in demand and a positive residual demand.
