We now change both technology and leisure utility function.
We consider the following mixed four-state model:
![]()
![]()
where
![]()
![]()
![]()
and the following switched four-state model:
for
t=1,5,9,13,. . .
for
t=2,6,10,14,. . .
for
t=3,7,13,15,. . .
for
t=4,8,12,16,. . .
where
![]()
![]()
![]()
for both models. They seem like the same forms but they are
![]()
![]()
![]()
where each
is calculated from

and
for state
1

and
for state
2

and
for state
3

and
for state
4
We had better compute each policy function
separately.
