| Summary: | This paper endeavors to present a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model that can assay and check the
traces of changes in utility in Iran's economy by defining different utility functions for households. It uses data from 1998 to
2020 and assays Iranian households’ behavior within the framework of a DSGE model. A number of modifications to the
standard model have been introduced to enforce stationarity and household behavior. To this aim, this rummage, with a
glimpse at the existing economic literature, will present a DSGE model for a small open economy with changing utility
function. Three different characteristics are considered for this purpose, namely an endogenous discount factor model, a
debt-elastic interest-rate premium model, and a portfolio adjustment costs model. The results show that all models assert
virtually identical dynamics at business-cycle frequencies as measured impulse response functions. The notable difference
among the alternative models is that the debt-elastic interest-rate premium model and the portfolio adjustment costs model
have dynamic changes. |
