Abstract:In a model of a competitive market, each firm in each period faces a planning problem caused by random changes in circumstances. Due to bounded rationality, a firm is unable to compute , costlessly and exactly, its optimal output. Instead the firm approximates optimal output through a decision-making process called a "deliberation technology". This technology involves a rule of thumb, a costly deliberation mechanism, and a random deliberation error. The issue addressed by the model is how bounded rationality affects market fluctuations.
