Description
Summary:During the Chinese hyperinflation (1946:1-1949:4), both anticipated and unanticipated inflation were found to influence relative price variability positively. The non-neutral effect of anticipated inflation rejects the conventional Lucas island model, while lending empirical support to the price adjustment-cost theory.
