摘要:
Empirical evidence suggests that inflation determination is not purely forward-looking but models of price setting have struggled to rationalize this finding without directly assuming backward-looking pricing rules for firms This paper shows that intrinsic inflation persistence can be explained with no deviation from optimizing forward-looking behaviour if prices that have remained fixed for longer are more likely to be changed than those set recently A relationship between the probability of price adjustment and the duration of a price spell is shown to imply a simple hybrid Phillips curve including lagged and expected inflation which is estimated using macroeconomic data (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
