We study discretionary equilibrium in the Calvo pricing model for a monetary authority that chooses the money supply, producing three main contributions. First, price‐adjusting firms have a unique equilibrium price for a broad range of parameterizations, in contrast to earlier results for the...

We study discretionary equilibrium in the Calvo pricing model for a monetary authority that chooses the money supply, producing three main contributions. First, the model delivers a unique private-sector equilibrium for a broad range of parameterizations, in contrast to earlier results for the...

We study discretionary equilibrium in the Calvo pricing model for a monetary authority that chooses the money supply. The steady-state inflation rate is above 8 percent for a baseline calibration, but it varies substantially with alternative structural parameter values. If the initial condition...
