The paper presents an incomplete competition model (ICM), where inflation is determined jointly with unit labour cost … growth. The ICM is estimated on data for the Euro area and evaluated against existing models, i.e. the implicit inflation …. There is, however, some support in favour of the (reduced form) AWM inflation equation. It is the only model that …

In the paper, an analogy with length measurement is applied in order to explore the nature of the unit for value measurement, i.e. the unit of account. As the meter is defined as the length traveled by light in vacuum during 1/299 792 458 of a second, the unit of account krona is defined as the...

The reason is that low inflation rates make saving, as opposed to …, when inflation exceeds a certain threshold, money is too costly to hold, which results in a decrease in output and an …

This paper studies the issue of whether money contains useful information about future inflation in a panel of nine … developed countries. A low frequency estimate of excess money growth is compared to an estimate of the inflation trend following … the discussion in Woodford (2007). The empirical analysis shows that money contains more information about future CPI-inflation …
