If we follow Uzawa’s idea, then it is reasonable to assume 0>wλ and .0=kλ If we follow the assumption that the rate of time preference is positively related to wealth, for instance, accepted by Smithin (2004) and Kam and Mohsin (2006), then 0=wλ and .0>kλ 10 The habit formation and the propensity to consume The modeling of the propensity to save is influenced by the literature of time preference change. keywords: + =; = +; = =; analysis; approach; behavior; capital; change; consumer; consumption; curve; different; differential; dynamic; economic; economic growth; economy; endogenous; environmental; environmental change; environmental sector; equations; equilibrium; figure; following; force; formation; function; goods; growth; habit; habit formation; household; impact; income; industrial; instance; interest; journal; labor; level; literature; lower; model; motion; national; neoclassical; original; output; parameters; path; point; policy; pollution; preference; production; productivity; propensity; quality; rate; relative; review; rise; saving; sector; stock; studies; study; system; t t; tax; theory; time; time preference; total; traditional; utility; values; variables; wage; wealth; zhang cache: ijmeb-1869.pdf plain text: ijmeb-1869.txt item: #6 of 123 id: ijmeb-1870 author: Brondoni, Silvio M.; Corniani, Margherita; Riboldazzi, Sabina title: Global Retailers, Market-Driven Management and Innovation date: 2013-06-28 words: 6290 flesch: 43 summary: The paper is based on a review and synthesis of secondary data and published work and proposes to link together the issues concerning global retailing with market-driven innovation, offering an initial classificatory schema of activity areas where global retailers can innovate to compete in global markets.
