Explore how households derive value from money and liquid assets, not just from consumption. This study presents a unified way to model asset demands that treats liquidity as a direct source of utility, alongside consumption.
The authors build a representative consumer model that includes four major asset classes—money, time deposits, short-term government debt, and corporate equity—and examine how these holdings interact with consumption. They estimate a utility-based framework using instrumental variables and test whether liquidity services are a real part of utility, not just a byproduct of other theories. The work also discusses estimation challenges, model identifiability, and how the results stack up against previous studies.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the use of asset demand as a method to manage consumer demand, opening up approaches for economists to study the effects of government interventions in financial markets and consumer behavior. Unlike existing models, it can be interpreted as a rational response of individuals to economic environments. It is suitable as a reference for advanced students and scholars carrying out research in this field. The book provides empirical tests of a theoretically sound model using data that economists do not typically analyze in this manner. The author offers alternative interpretations of established economic concepts, which can be applied to new areas of research and new ways of understanding consumer behavior.
