Abstract:
Historically, the Consumption Capital Asset Pricing Method (C-CAPM) has performed poorly in that estimated parameters are implausible, model restrictions are often rejected and inferences appear to be very sensitive to the choice of economic agents' preferences. In this study, we estimate and test the C-CAPM with Constant Relative Risk Aversion (CRRA) using time series data from Germany, South Africa, Britain and America during relatively short time periods with the latest available data sets. Hansen's GMM approach is applied to estimate the parameters arising from this model. In general, esti

The research employs Australian equity data over the period 1980-2001, with the major analyses covering the more recent period 1990-2001. The study first documents that existing asset-pricing models namely the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) and domestic Fama-French three-factor model fail to meet the widely applied Merton?s zero-intercept criterion for a well-specified pricing model.

In the first essay, "Asset Pricing in a Monetary Economy with Heterogeneous Beliefs", we shed new light on the role of monetary policy in asset pricing by focusing on the case where investors have heterogeneous expectations about future monetary policy. Under heterogeneity in beliefs, investors place bets against each other on the evolution of money supply, and as a result, the sharing of wealth in the economy evolves stochastically over time, making money non-neutral. Employing a continuous-time, general equilibrium model, we establish these fl

The market value of a firm over the replacement cost of fixed assets and inventory serves as an indication of whether value is created by investing internally in the firm, or whether value is destroyed by investing in negative net present value projects. Where Tobin's q is greater than one (q > 1), the market value of the firm is greater than what it would cost to replace fixed assets and inventory. Therefore value is

Abstract:
Ongoing globalisation has resulted in more liberalisation, integration, and competition among countries. An upshot of this has been higher levels of cross-border investment. Foreign direct investment (FDI), long considered an engine of growth, has led to widespread probe with its recent rapid spread. Nevertheless, while research on the contribution of FDI to host countries has concentrated heavily on the developed and developing economies, there has been a marked neglect of small, developed economies. This study proposes to focus on New Zealand, a country that falls within the latter category.

Abstract:
本論文集收錄了三篇關於儲蓄的宏觀經濟學及其相關領域的文章。<br>第一篇文章討論儲蓄和跨期替代問題。在這篇文章中我們研究在新古典增長模型中,當採用不為1的要素替代彈性和非常數的跨期替代彈性時產生不同的儲蓄動態的問題。使用一般化的效用函數和生產函數,我們的結論覆蓋了現實中的各種儲蓄率變化形式,包括單調遞增、遞減、鐘形和U型。在此我們使用Stone-Geary效用函數和CES生產函數作為一個特例來說明問題。使用相點陣圖分析方法,我們得出了可以導致不同儲蓄率動態的充分和必要條件。我們的數量測驗支持理論的結果。作為一個擴展,接下來我們討論了連續時間OLG模型中的儲蓄率動態。當放鬆偏好和技術兩方面的假設時,我們依然得出了類似於新古典模型的豐富的儲蓄率動態。<br>第二篇文章是一個關於可變IES假設的經驗研究。在這篇文章中我們研究了跨期替代彈性的跨國差異,以及在某一特定國家的增長路徑中其可能的變化。在估計中我們使用了不同形式的歐拉方程模型,尤其是具有Stone-Geary效用形式的約束條件的模型。我們使用東亞和南亞國家面板資料的研究不能拒絶遞增IES的假設。使用兩個典型亞洲國家:日本和韓國的時間序列研究也得出了IES在經濟增長過程中遞增的結論。這一結果給第一章中的理論發現提供了經驗支持,與這些國家的儲蓄率動態變化情況也是相吻合的。<br>第三篇文章在一個具有不對稱生產技術的兩國開放經濟模型中採

"Study on forward premium puzzle." Thesis, 2007. http://library.cuhk.edu.hk/record=b6074212.

Abstract:
Existing literature reports a puzzle about the forward foreign exchange rate premium over the spot foreign exchange rate. The premium is often negatively correlated with subsequent changes in the spot rate, which is considered to defy economic intuition and possibly violate market efficiency. Rational explanations include non-stationary risk premia and econometric misspecifications, and the puzzle as a guide to profitable trading. Actually, the puzzle consists of three aspects of anomalies: volatility, persistence, and unbiasedness. The puzzle has not yet solved fully thus far.<br>In the latte

"Essays on household consumption and household saving behavior of Chinese urban residents." Thesis, 2007. http://library.cuhk.edu.hk/record=b6074440.

Full text
Abstract:
The first essay uses Chinese Urban Household Survey (CUHS) data from 1988 to 2003 to conduct a cohort analysis of household income, household consumption, and household saving rate, and then uses synthetic panel data to explore the determinants of household saving rate. The cohort analysis not only offers stylized patterns of age profiles on household income, household consumption, and household saving rate but also their profiles of cohort effect and age effect by decomposition work. The cohort analysis likewise tests the relation between cohort effect and productivity growth. Overall, the em
