Fiscal versus Monetary Dominance: Evidence from Iran
In this paper, we dealt with fiscal dominance, which is a situation in which the fiscal authority sets its expenditure and taxes without regard to any requirement of intertemporal budget balance. Therefore, the monetary authority must adjust its policies to ensure that the government budget is in balance. The existence of oil revenues for the government on the one hand and its lack of access to...
متن کاملImplementation by Iterative Dominance and Backward Induction: An Experimental Comparison
We report experimental results on the relative performance of simultaneous and sequential versions of the Abreu–Matsushima mechanism. Under the simultaneous version, subjects typically use undominated strategies, but apply only a limited number of iterations of dominance. Consequently the unique strategy surviving iterative elimination of strictly dominated strategies is rarely observed. Under ...
متن کاملForward induction and the excess capacity puzzle: An experimental investigation*
While the theoretical industrial organization literature has long argued that excess capacity can be used to deter entry into markets, there is little empirical evidence that incumbent firms effectively behave in this way. Bagwell and Ramey (1996) propose a game with a specific sequence of moves and partially-recoverable capacity costs in which forward induction provides a theoretical rationali...

متن کاملPre-Play Communication with Forgone Costly Messages: Experimental Evidence on Forward Induction
We experimentally study optional costly communication in Stag-Hunt games. Prior research demonstrates that efficient coordination is difficult without a communication option but obtains regularly with mandatory costless pre-play messages. We find that even small communication costs dramatically reduce message use when communication is optional, but efficient coordination can occur with similar ...
