Abstract

This paper presents an infinite-horizon model of optimal capital accumulation with the social-status concern and the cash-in-advance constraint. When the cash-in-advance constraint applies to both consumption and investment, money is not supemeutral. If only consumption is subject to the cash-in-advance constraint, inflation increases capital accumulation.
