摘要
We employ industry data to examine price stickiness of durables versus non-durables to evaluate Barsky et al. (2007) proposal that stickiness of durables' prices influences aggregate dynamics. Policy impacts from impulse responses accord with sticky-price frameworks even though non-durables' prices are relatively flexible. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
