Demand, Markups and the Business Cycle

Abstract
We generalize the demand side of a Real Business Cycle model introducing non-homothetic preference aggregators over differentiated final goods. Under monopolistic competition this generates markups which vary with consumption. We estimate a flexible preference specification through Bayesian methods and obtain substitutability across goods increasing with consumption. The closed-economy model magnifies the propagation of shocks through additional substitution effects on labor supply and consumption. In an open-economy framework, it also generates positive comovements of output, labor and investment and reduces consumption correlation between countries. In particular, a positive shock in the Home country improves its terms of trade, which promotes consumption in the Home country but also production in the Foreign country.
