the real business cycle theory was applied to investigate the hypothesis of cyclical agreeable treatment of real wages, for men and women work force, in the iranian agricultural sector for the period of 1971-2006. on the basis of this theory, the impacts of supply side shocks (productivity and oil income shocks), are anticipated on the fluctuations of the real wages. the dominant effect of supp...

Theory tells us that output, the capital stock and the user cost of capital are cointegrated. From the capital accumulation identity, it also follows that the capital stock and investment have a long-run proportional relationship. This has been used to justify the estimation of investment equations embodying a long-run relation between investment and output, rather than between the capital stoc...

We model and analyze strategic interaction over time in a duopoly. Each period the …rms independently and simultaneously take two sequential decisions. First, they decide whether or not to advertise, then they set prices for goods which are imperfect substitutes. Not only the own, but also the other …rm’s past advertisement e¤orts a¤ect the current ‘sales potential’ of each …rm. How much of thi...

This paper uses recent developments in measuring correlation to examine the relationship between inflation and relative price variability. The results suggest that the positive correlation holds not only in the short-run but also in the long-run. This finding has important implications for theoretical models that purport to explain this relationship: such models must incorporate features that g...

The main purpose of this paper is analyses the short and long run relationship between budget deficit and trade deficit in some MENA countries. The data cover the period from 1971-2000 (and for I.R. IRAN 1 959-2003).The relationship between these variables will be analyses in short and long run by using Johansen cointegration tests, ECM, and Granger causality test. The empirical evidence provid...

abstract the purpose of this paper is to test the hypothesis first proposed by romer (1993); suggesting that inflation is lower in more open economies. according to this hypothesis, central banks have a lower incentive to engineer surprise inflations in more-open economies because the phillips curve is steeper. furthermore, comparing with other empirical studies, this paper has used the new kof...

regarding the decentralization of credits management, this study examined the effect of fiscal policies on gross domestic product of the iranian provinces over the period 2001-2009. therefore, we used dynamic panel data and employed gmm-sys method to examine the model. the results show that the government expenditure and tax multiplier coefficients are less than one in short - run but greater t...
