Inflation and the rate of interest
Henry Thornton was the originator of two theories about the connection between inflation and the rate of interest dating back to the early 19th century and which are still discussed today.

A Nonlinear Approach to Tunisian Inflation Rate [PDF]
In this study, we investigated the properties and the macroeconomic performance of the nonlinearity of the Inflation Rate Set in Tunisia. We developed an inference asymptotic theory for an unrestricted two-regime threshold autoregressive (TAR) model with

Sources of Bias in Inflation Rates and Implications for Inflation Dynamics [PDF]
AbstractOfficial statistics measuring the cost of living are known to suffer from several biases. This paper shows that the size of the biases can vary with economic conditions. Using homescan data, it is first confirmed that official price indexes can be tracked using such granular data sets.

Inflation and the savings rate [PDF]
In this paper we examine two explanations of the observed positive relationship between inflation rates and savings rates in Canada and the United States. Several models are estimated using quarterly time-series data from both countries, and the best of these are subjected to a variety of tests.

Interest Rates and Inflation [PDF]
A consensus has emerged among practitioners that the instrument of monetary policy ought to be the short-term interest rate, that policy should be focused on the control of inflation, and that inflation can be reduced by increasing short-term interest rates. At the center of this consensus is a rejection of the quantity theory.

Inflation targeting: What inflation rate to target? [PDF]
Abstract In an economy with nominal rigidities in both an intermediate good sector and a finished good sector, and thus with a natural distinction between CPI and PPI inflation rates, a benevolent central bank faces a tradeoff between stabilizing the two measures of inflation, a final output gap and, unique to our model, a real marginal cost gap in ...

Divergent inflation rates in EMU [PDF]
We analyze the sources of divergent national inflation rates among EMU member countries. At one level, we review the Irish 'outlier' experience; at another, we estimate panel regressions for the 1999-2001 period. We highlight the role played by differential exposure to euro exchange rate movements in explaining inflation divergence.

AbstractIn this work, I consider an inflation model with a quadratic potential and a negative cosmological constant. An analytical solution of the equation of motion for the inflaton field is found without slow-roll approximation. The result is that the inflation field is rolling at a constant speed.

Euro area inflation as a predictor of national inflation rates [PDF]
Abstract The stability of inflation differentials is an important condition for the smooth working of a currency area, such as the European Economic and Monetary Union. In the presence of stability, changes in national inflation rates, while holding Euro area inflation fixed contemporaneously, should be only transitory.

Effects of International Sanctions and Other Determinants on Iran’s Inflation Rate (1981-2014) [PDF]
Due to the historical importance of inflation in the Iranian economy and its serious effects on the society, the present study has explored the impacts of international sanctions and other effective factors on the inflation rate in Iran during 1981-2014.
