Time Discounting and Time Preference:
Journal of Economic Literature, 2002This paper discusses the discounted utility (DU) model: its historical development, underlying assumptions, and "anomalies" - the empirical regularities that are inconsistent with its theoretical predictions. We then summarize the alternate theoretical formulations that have been advanced to address these anomalies.

Abstract There is broad agreement that, in cost-effectiveness analyses, all future costs and health consequences should be stated in terms of their “present value” to the decision maker. Only then will the interventions’ cost-effectiveness ratios be appropriately adjusted for the differential timing of costs and consequences so that the ...

Separating Risk Preference and Time Preference
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2012In the studies of decision making under risk and time, an increasingly important question is whether the utility representations should be the same for both circumstances. This study aims to test the separation between risk preference and time preference in a controlled laboratory setting, where subjects make intertemporal allocation decisions under ...

OK, today I have just received as a gift something I always dreamed about, but given its cost, I never resolved to buy: a white truffle.

Tonight?

One of the most unsatisfactory assumptions in economic theory in general and in general equilibrium theory in particular is the assumption that consumers have total preorders as preferences for consumption in future periods. The results in this book allows for representation of preferences that are not total preorders.
