This paper considers the existence of a path of GDP corresponding to steady inflation in the prices of domestic goods …. We estimate the steady inflation rate of growth, denoted the SIRG, at a little over 4 per cent per annum in the post …-float period. Changes in inflation are modelled as a nonlinear combination of growth and changes in import price inflation. Because …

The NAIRU is the unemployment rate that is consistent with a constant rate of inflation. Its value is … determined in an econometric model in which the inflation rate depends on its own past values (‘inertia’), demand shocks proxied …
