The empirical work using the aggregate data from developed countries has been rejected the consumption based capital asset pricing model (C-CPAM). This paper attempts to test C-CPAM using Turkish aggregate data. The nonlinear Euler equation from C-CPAM with a single risk-free asset is estimated by GMM estimation procedure using different measures of consumption and rate of return. In all estimations, the overidentification restrictions are failed to reject, and the estimations of the preference parameters are significant.
