We consider a small-scale Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model with capital accumulation and endogenous labor supply and show that noise dampens the propagation of anticipated fiscal policy over the business cycle, thus reducing the fiscal multiplier. %K Government spending shocks %K Expected shocks %K Noisy Information %K DSGE Models %B TSE Working Paper %V 16-696 %D 2016 %I TSE Working Paper %L publications22373
