| Popis: | We study a dynamic random utility model that allows for consumption dependence. We axiomatically analyze this model and find insights that allow us to distinguish between behavior that arises due to consumption dependence and behavior that arises due to state dependence. Building on our axiomatic analysis, we develop a hypothesis test for consumption dependent random utility. We show that our hypothesis test offers computational improvements over the natural extension of Kitamura and Stoye (2018) to our environment. Finally, we consider a parametric application of our model and show how an analyst can predict the long run perturbation to market shares due to habit formation using choice data from only two periods. |
