This paper compares the stochastic behavior of fiscal variables under optimal fiscal policy for the cases of full commitment by the government (Ramsey problem) and no commitment by the government (focusing on differentiable Markov perfect equilibrium). It shows that the cyclical properties of fiscal variables are similar for both commitment assumptions. These conclusions are robust to two different specifications of the structure of public bonds (risk-free and state-contingent) and to different sets of the parameters. The cyclical properties of fiscal variables, regardless of commitment assumptions, can be determined by the parameters of the utility function.

Markov Perfect

<p>This paper proposes several time preference specifications that generalise quasi-hyperbolic discounting, while retaining its analytical tractability. We define their discount functions and provide a recursive formulation of the implied lifetime payoffs. A calibration exercise demonstrates that these specifications deliver better approximations to true hyperbolic discounting. We characterise the Markov-perfect equilibrium of a general intra-personal game of agents with various time preferences. When applied to specific economic examples, our proposals yield policies that are close to those of true hyperbolic discounters. Furthermore, these approximations can be used in settings where an exact solution for hyperbolic agents is not available. Finally, we suggest further generalisations which would provide an even better fit.</p>
