摘要:Cancellation of income and substitution e¤ect implied by King-Plosser- Rebelo (1988) preferences breaks tight coe¢ cient restriction between the slope of the Phillips curve and the elasticity of consumption with respect to real interest rate in a sticky price macro model. This facilitates the estimation of intertemporal elasticity of substitution using full informa- tion Bayesian Maximum Likelihood techniques within a structural model. The US data from the period 19842007 supports low intertemporal elas- ticity of substitution and strongly rejects a logarithmic and an additively separable utility speci cation commonly applied in the New Keynesian literature.
