Optimal Monetary Policy with Durable and Non-durable Goods [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2002
We document that the durable goods sector is much more interest-sensitive than the non-durables sector, and then investigate the implications of these these sectoral differences for monetary policy. We formulate a two-sector general equilibrium model that is calibrated both to match the sectoral responses to a monetary policy shock derived from our ...
