We consider a broad class of intertemporal economic problems and characterize the short-run and long-run responses of the demand for a good to a permanent increase in its market price. Depending on the interplay between self-productivity and time discount- ing, we show that dynamic substitution effects can generate price elasticities of opposite signs in the short run and in the long run.

Abstract
We consider a broad class of intertemporal economic problems and characterize the short-run and long-run responses of the demand for a good to a permanent increase in its market price. Depending on the interplay between self-productivity and time discount- ing, we show that dynamic substitution effects can generate price elasticities of opposite signs in the short run and in the long run.File in questo prodotto:
