Explaining Asymmetric Price Adjustment
In an in nite horizon model with stochastic costs, moderate ination, costly price adjustment, and optimal price setting, we demonstrate that individual price reductions will be larger but less frequent than price increases. With positive ination, aggregate prices are more responsive to cost increases than to cost decreases, and a calibrated version of the model ts well the magnitude of downw...
متن کاملSpeed of price adjustment with price conjectures
We derive a measure of firm speed of price adjustment that is directly inversely related to market power and compare this to the measure derived by Martin (1993). However, both measures are incorrect when firms have non-zero price conjectural variations and treat competing price levels as exogenous. This is because Taylor series expansions of the demand function implicitly assume that firms inf...
متن کاملInflation an Asymmetric Price Adjustment
This paper uses a unique micro data set to test for the presence of price asymmetries at the firm level. We find that firm pricing is indeed asymmetric, as Tobin (1972) suggested long ago. Moreover, there is strong evidence to support Ball and Mankiw's (1994) suggestion that firm price asymmetry is dependent on inflation. However, Ball and Mankiw's theory seems to hold better for changes in cos...
متن کاملPrice Adjustment at Multiproduct Retailers
We empirically study the price adjustment process at multiproduct retail stores. We use a unique store level data set for five large supermarket and one drugstore chains in the USA, to document the exact process required to change prices. Our data set allows us to study this process in great detail, describing the exact procedure, stages, and steps undertaken during the price change process. We...
متن کاملNon-price Rigidity and Cost of Adjustment
There has been increasing interest in understanding how firms undertake non-price adjustment activities, especially in situations where prices may be rigid despite changes in market conditions. Using scanner price data for over 4500 different food products from a large US supermarket chain, we document periods of rigidity in product additions and deletions: new products are less likely to be in...
