  • Abstract
    Using standard time-separable, discounted expected utility (EU) models, Lucas (Models of Business Cycles, 1987) and others argue that growth trends have a crucial, and cyclical fluctuations a trivial, effect on individualsʹ utility. These conclusions are drastically altered if, instead, non-EU preferences are assumed.
