| Tiivistelmä: | We extend macroeconomic models of imperfect competition with Keynesian features to allow for non-unitary elasticies between leisure and consumtion and the effect of product variety on multipliers and welfare. Provided preference for diversity is sufficiently strong, the real national income multiplier for a given rise in real public spending is larger under free than under restricted entry and exit of firms. This implies a pro-cyclical real consumer wage. With lump-sum taxes the marginal cost of public funds is below unity. Optimal public spending may be counter-cyclical. More priority for public goods raises the long-run cost of public funds. |
