We present a menu-cost pricing model with a large but finite number n of firms. A firm's nominal price increase lowers other firms' relative prices, thereby inducing further nominal price increases. The distribution of these repricing avalanches converges as n→∞ to a mixture of Generalized...

In this Supplementary Appendix, we extend the baseline model of "Repricing Avalanches" to the case where productivity is not constant. Even though some portions are straightforward extension of the baseline model, we allow for some overlap with the main text for the sake of a self-contained...
