This paper derives and presents mean leads and lags as well as patterns of relative importance weights implied by the PAC (polynomial-adjustment-cost) error-correction equations which form the core of the FRB/US model at the Federal Reserve Board. Relative importance weights measure the...

Die hohen Inflationsraten seit Frühjahr 2021 lenkten auch neue Aufmerksamkeit auf das Jahrzehnt der 1970er Jahre, in dem Westdeutschland letztmalig für viele Jahre und nicht nur kurzfristig unter hohen Inflationsraten litt. Die Inflationsraten betrugen in keinem Jahr unter 2 %, meist über 4 %...

We specify an empirical model of US inflation which has the dynamics of wage and price setting at its core. In the dynamic wage equation an equilibrium-correction term connects the wage level to industrial prosperity indicators. In that way, the role of wage setting in the dynamics of the...
