Aging, Fertility and Macroeconomic Dynamics

Abstract:

A tractable model with heterogeneous households is proposed to analyze the two-way interactions between demographic and macroeconomic variables. Total population and labor-market participation are both endogenous and affected by economic as well as demographic factors. We perform a quantitative exercise focusing on trend dynamics based on Japanese data. Our counterfactual analysis revels the role of declining trend of life expectancy, labor-market participation costs, and sunk costs of raising newborns
