Stores, Prices, and Currency Substitution
We study endogenous currency substitution in a decentralized trade environment. Sellers maximize profits from sales of imperfectly substitutable goods by posting prices in either one of two currencies. A unique symmetric equilibrium exists where goods are priced only in the local currency. This occurs if foreign trade is sporadic, there is sufficient but not excessive liquidity, and discounting...
متن کاملU.S. Money Demand and the Welfare Cost of Inflation in a Currency–Deposit Model
This paper emphasizes that it is crucial to identify the proper specification of money demand as well as the appropriate monetary aggregate to find the exact welfare cost of inflation. The econometric test results obtained from the nonlinear form of money demand with Box–Cox restriction indicate that not the semi-logarithmic form but the double-log form with constant elasticity of less than one...
متن کاملResults of a massive experiment on virtual currency endowments and money demand
We use a 575,000-subject, 28-day experiment to investigate monetary policy in a virtual setting. The experiment tests the effect of virtual currency endowments on player retention and virtual currency demand. An increase in endowments of a virtual currency should lower the demand for the currency in the short run. However, in the long run, we would expect money demand to rise in response to inf...
متن کاملEvolutionary Dynamics of Currency Substitution
This paper examines the issues related to the competition between two currencies in an agent-based computational economic model. The economic environment is a two-country overlapping generations economy with no restrictions on foreign currency holdings. Governments of both countries nance their de cits via seignorage. Agents make decisions about their savings and portfolio decisions. They use t...
متن کاملState Capacity, Capital Mobility, and Tax Competition
Abstract The theory of international tax competition suggests that governments attempt to attract mobile capital bases by undercutting the foreign capital tax rate. An analysis of the role that state capacity plays in tax policymaking under international pressures is, however, missing. The central contribution of our study is to highlight the importance of the interaction between state capaci...
