We develop a two-sector monetary economy with human capital accumulation and a cash constraint applied to both consumption and investment to examine the ways in which social status affects the impact of monetary policy on the long-run economic growth rate. Our findings suggest that the formation of

β¦ Synopsis
We provide a theoretical treatment of temporal aggregation in models that exhibit long-term endogenously generated steady growth; hence generalizing our previous analysis [Econometrica 62 (1994), 635}656]. We introduce the property of steady growth invariance * that the long-term growth of the continuous-time economy not be a!ected by the discretization * which imposes consistency restrictions on the joint formulation of preferences and stock accumulation of the discrete-time approximation. We establish, under mild conditions, these restrictions in the form of necessary and su$cient conditions on the discretization.

This paper concerns the transitional dynamics of the one sector endogenous growth model with physical and human capital when gross investments are irreversible. It has been claimed that the transition path is on the stable saddle path of the system that describes the dynamics of the economy as long
