Asymmetric price adjustment – evidence for India [PDF]

We used monthly time series data on prices of 419 commodities, which constitute 97% of commodity price basket used in the construction of wholesale price index in India.

Asymmetric Price Adjustment and Economic Fluctuations [PDF]

open access: yesEconomic Journal, 1994
This paper considers a possible explanation for asymmetric adjustment of nominal prices. The authors present a menu-cost model in which positive trend inflation causes firms' relative prices to decline automatically between price adjustments. In this environment, shocks that raise firms' desired prices trigger larger price responses than shocks that ...

The results suggest that asymmetries affect a conspicuous part of the raw milk processed in Spain.

Menu costs and asymmetric price adjustment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Industrial Organization
We study optimal price setting by a monopolist in an infinite horizon model with stochastic costs, moderate inflation, and costly price adjustment. For realistic parameters, chosen to generate observed frequencies of price changes, the model can account for several aggregate regularities.

Asymmetric price adjustment over the business cycle

open access: yesEconomics Letters
Studies of micro-level price datasets find more frequent small price increases than decreases, which can be explained by consumer inattention because time-constrained shoppers might ignore small price changes. Recent empirical studies of the link between shopping behavior and price attention over the business cycle find that consumers are more (less ...

Asymmetric Adjustments of Price and Output [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 1997
Classical theories predict rapid price adjustments, which are observed in inflationary episodes; Keynesian theories of sticky prices predict sluggish price responses, which are observed in contractions. We attempt to reconcile these observations in a model with asymmetries in producer price and output adjustments.

Asymmetric Price Adjustment in the Small [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2006
Analyzing a large weekly retail transaction price dataset, we uncover a surprising regularity - small price increases occur more frequently than small price decreases for price changes of up to about 10 cents, while there is no such asymmetry for larger price changes. The asymmetry holds for the entire sample and for individual categories. We find that
