SOME CONCLUSIONS""; ""REFERENCES"" 330 3 $aWe estimate tax multipliers in a "Blanchard-Yaari" consumption model where Ricardian equivalence is broken because the private sector discounts the future at a faster rate than the real rate of interest. The model fits U.S. data since 1955 extremely well-entailing a discount wedge of around 20 percent a year and fiscal multipliers of 0.15-0.4-depending on the permanence of the change in taxes/transfers, and is much superior to one that assumes some consumers are fully Ricardian and others follow simple rules of thumb. The implied high private sector rate of discount has wide implications for policymakers. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/168 606 $aFiscal policy 606 $aMultiplier (Economics) 606 $aEconometrics$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aPersonal Income, Wealth, and Their Distributions$2imf 606 $aAggregate Factor Income Distribution$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics: Consumption$2imf 606 $aSaving$2imf 606 $aWealth$2imf 606 $aEstimation$2imf 606 $aEconometrics & economic statistics$2imf 606 $aIncome$2imf 606 $aPersonal income$2imf 606 $aConsumption$2imf 606 $aDisposable income$2imf 606 $aEstimation techniques$2imf 606 $aEconomics$2imf 606 $aNational income$2imf 606 $aEconometric models$2imf 607 $aUnited States$2imf 615 0$aFiscal policy. 615 0$aMultiplier (Economics) 615 7$aEconometrics 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aPersonal Income, Wealth, and Their Distributions 615 7$aAggregate Factor Income Distribution 615 7$aMacroeconomics: Consumption 615 7$aSaving 615 7$aWealth 615 7$aEstimation 615 7$aEconometrics & economic statistics 615 7$aIncome 615 7$aPersonal income 615 7$aConsumption 615 7$aDisposable income 615 7$aEstimation techniques 615 7$aEconomics 615 7$aNational income 615 7$aEconometric models 700 $aSgherri$b Silvia$01491226 701 $aBayoumi$b Tamim$0122763 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788695603321 996 $aMr. Ricardo?s Great Adventure$93823284 997 $aUNINA
