Abstract

This paper builds a business cycle model in which consumers experience a pain of paying and neglect the opportunity costs. The demand block is a linear function decreasing in the price and in the interest rate. The supply block is a Phillips curve. The model is simple, yields textbook predictions, and solves the New Keynesian puzzles.
