DESCRIPTION:Cash transfer payments are an increasingly widespread policy to
 ol in developed and developing countries\, used for both short-term and lon
 g-term objectives. We study the design of these policies by examining how t
 he time horizon over which households anticipate receiving transfer payment
 s affects consumption and savings. Using Nielsen Consumer Panel data\, we e
 stimate higher marginal propensities to spend for US households scheduled t
 o receive the 2008 Economic Stimulus Payments sooner. Analyzing data from r
 andomized experiments in Kenya and Malawi\, we document higher savings amon
 g households scheduled to wait longer before receiving lump-sum transfers. 
 We discuss implications of our results through a model of mental accounting
