Monetary shocks with variable effort

Author

Listed:
  • Walsh, Frank

Abstract

In a model with rigid nominal wages, full information and competitive product markets, I show that when an effort augmented production function is incorporated into an analysis of supply and demand shocks, the outcomes are in line with traditional Keynesian analysis for a wide range of parameter values. Monetary shocks can increase output and employment.
