Robustness Study of Unit Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution Assumption and Preference Misspecification by Huarui Jing

“…Then, I study the main estimation mechanism of the decomposition as well as the time discount factor and the risk aversion parameter estimation surface. The results demonstrate the robustness of estimating the average yield, change of measure, and preference parameters but also reveal an “absorption effect” arising from the unit EIS assumption. …”
