State-dependent pricing, local-currency pricing, and exchange rate pass-through

  • Landry, Anthony

Abstract

This paper presents a two-country DSGE model with state-dependent pricing as in Dotsey et al. (1999) in which firms discriminate across countries by setting prices in local currency. In this model, a domestic monetary expansion has greater spillover effects to foreign prices and foreign economic activity than an otherwise identical model with time-dependent pricing. In addition, the predictions of the state-dependent pricing model match the business-cycle moments better than the predictions of the time-dependent pricing model when driven by monetary policy shocks.
