Abstract
This paper studies asset returns in different versions of the one-sector real business cycle model. We show that a model with habit formation preferences and capital adjustment costs can explain the historical equity premium and the average risk-free return while replicating the salient business cycle properties. The paper also applies a solution technique that combines loglinear methods with lognormal asset pricing formulae.
