Abstract
We generalize the monetary economy of Lucas and Stokey to the case of a neo-classical production economy. Money non-neutrality is shown to be generic, even though the representative agent¿s utility is log separable. The capital/wealth ratio plays a key role in the transmission mechanism of monetary policy. Empirical evidence supports the hypothesized influence of this ratio on the US equity market premium.
