This paper estimates monthly pass-through ratios from import prices to consumer prices in real time. Conventional time … series methods impose restrictions to generate exogenous shocks on exchange rates or import prices when estimating pass …-through coefficients. Instead, a natural experiment based on data releases defines our shock to foreign prices. Our estimation strategy …

We reexamine the evidence for border effects in deviations from the law of one price, using data for consumer prices … rather than price index data. We find evidence of border effects both in the levels of prices and the percentage change in … prices. Even accounting for distance between cities and relative population sizes, we find that the absolute difference …
