Abstract
This paper presents a model of price stabilization applicable to less-developed economies. Distinctive features of the model are: (i) its explicit incorporation of a commercial banking system, (ii) its specification that the actual rate of inflation depends on inflationary expectations and on excess demand for output, and (iii) endogeneity of the growth rate of real output. Numerical simulations are also conducted. We demonstrate that stabilization through an initial increase in the average nominal interest rate paid on money holdings has significantly more favorable short-run effects on real output than does stabilization through an initial reduction in the rate of monetary expansion.
