Purchasing Power Parity: Evidence from a New Test [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 1999 Most economists intuitively consider purchasing power parity (PPP) to be true. Nevertheless, quite surprisingly, the empirical literature is not very supportive for PPP. In this paper, however, we find evidence in favor of PPP using a new test. The test is embedded in a Markov regime-switching model for the exchange rate, because earlier papers have ...

Parity Reversion of Absolute Purchasing Power Parity
DEStech Transactions on Economics and Management, 2016 In this paper, we study the parity reversion of 40 main bilateral real exchange rates (RERs) constructed by actual price levels to be consistent with absolute purchasing power parity (PPP), rather than by price indexes as used in popular studies. The time series ADF and KPSS unit root tests reveal that 39 RERs are stationary in their periods of about ...
