Howmonetarypolicyworksin RANK
• Total consumption response to a drop in real rates
C response = direct response to r︸ ︷︷ ︸>95%
+ indirect effects due to Y︸ ︷︷ ︸<5%
• Direct response is everything, pure intertemporal substitution
• However, data suggest:
1. Low sensitivity of C to r
2. Sizable sensitivity of C to Y
3. Micro sensitivity vastly heterogeneous, depends crucially onhousehold balance sheets

Howmonetarypolicyworksin HANK
• Once matched to micro data, HANK delivers realistic:
• Wealth distribution: small direct effect
• MPC distribution: large indirect effect (depending on ∆Y )
C response = direct response to r︸ ︷︷ ︸ + indirect effects due to Y︸ ︷︷ ︸RANK: >95% RANK: <5%
HANK: <1/3 HANK: >2/3
• Overall effect depends crucially on fiscal response, unlike in RANK whereRicardian equivalence holds

MonetaryPolicyinBenchmarkNK ModelsGoal:
• Introduce decomposition of C response to r change
Setup:• Prices and wages perfectly rigid = 1, GDP=labor =Yt• Households: CRRA(γ), income Yt , interest rate rt
⇒ Ct({rs , Ys}s≥0)
• Monetary policy: sets time path {rt}t≥0, special case
rt = ρ+ e−ηt(r0 − ρ), η > 0 (∗)
• Equilibrium: Ct({rs , Ys}s≥0) = Yt

SolutionMethod(fromAchdou-Han-Lasry-Lions-Moll)
• Solving het. agent model = solving PDEs
1. Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation for individual choices2. Kolmogorov Forward equation for evolution of distribution
• Many well-developed methods for analyzing and solving these
• simple but powerful: finite difference method• codes: http://www.princeton.edu/~moll/HACTproject.htm
• Apparatus is very general: applies to any heterogeneous agent modelwith continuum of atomistic agents
1. heterogeneous households (Aiyagari, Bewley, Huggett,...)
2. heterogeneous producers (Hopenhayn,...)
• can be extended to handle aggregate shocks (Krusell-Smith,...)

ComputationalAdvantagesrelativetoDiscreteTime
1. Borrowing constraints only show up in boundary conditions• FOCs always hold with “=”
2. “Tomorrow is today”• FOCs are “static”, compute by hand: c−γ = Vb(a, b, y)
3. Sparsity• solving Bellman, distribution = inverting matrix• but matrices very sparse (“tridiagonal”)• reason: continuous time⇒ one step left or one step right
4. Two birds with one stone• tight link between solving (HJB) and (KF) for distribution• matrix in discrete (KF) is transpose of matrix in discrete (HJB)• reason: diff. operator in (KF) is adjoint of operator in (HJB)

HA ModelswithAggregateShocks: A MatlabToolbox
• Achdou et al & HANK: HA models with idiosyncratic shocks only
• Aggregate shocks⇒ computational challenge much larger
• Companion project: efficient, easy-to-use computational method
• see “When Inequality Matters for Macro and Macro Matters forInequality” (with Ahn, Kaplan, Winberry and Wolf)
• open source Matlab toolbox online now – see my website andhttps://github.com/gregkaplan/phact
• extension of linearization (Campbell 1998, Reiter 2009)
• different slopes at each point in state space

Continuoustimeearningsdynamics
• Literature provides little guidance on statistical models of high frequencyearnings dynamics
• Key challenge: inferring within-year dynamics from annual data
• Higher order moments of annual changes are informative
• Target key moments of one 1-year and 5-year labor earnings growth fromSSA data
• Model generates a thick right tail for earnings levels

• Flow earnings (y = wzl) modeled as sum of two components:
log yt = y1t + y2t
• Each component is a jump-drift with:
• mean-reverting drift: −βyitdt
• jumps with arrival rate: λi , drawn from N (0, σi)
• Estimate using SMM aggregated to annual frequency
• Choose six parameters to match eight moments:
