We present estimates of inventory models based on firm level panel data and investigate whether over-simplified specification of the production technology may account for the frequent failure to find technological incentives to smooth production in the context of the standard linear-quadratic...

This paper analyzes the optimal adjustment strategy of an inventory-holding firm facing price- and quantity-adjustment costs in an inflationary environment. The model nests both the original menu-cost model that allows production to be costlessly adjusted, and the later model that includes...
