Abstract

This paper examines the impact of monetary and fiscal policy when supply-side effects of prices as well as exchange rates are taken into account in an open economy macro model. Partial deficit financing and imperfect international capital movements are appropriately modelled. It is shown that the well known Mundell–Fleming result, that fiscal policy is completely ineffective under perfect capital mobility and flexible exchange rates, is significantly affected when exchange rate effects on the supply side are taken into account. The paper also shows that such effects significantly alter the effects of devaluation under fixed exchange rates.
