Abstract
In this paper we analyze the effect of the proportional profit-sharing rule on investment and consumption decisions in a two-period economy. We provide a particular example of an intertemporal consumption model with k = 2 agents in which they have the opportunity to invest in a project, the profit from which is shared by all the agents according to their percentage participation. We show that the equilibrium investment is unique and in pure strategies but not Pareto efficient.
