CAGAN MODEL
How current and future money effect the real money balance. If the
real money balance demanded depend upon the cost of holding
money price level depend on both the current and future money
supply.
Cagan model show more explicitly how this relationship works.
Mt –pt is the log of real money balance and pt+1 – pt is the
inflation rate between period t and t+1.
The equation state that if inflation goes up by 1 percentage point
real money balances fall by gema present.
ASSUMPTION OF CAGAN MODEL
mt-pt=-r(Ept+1-pt) A8
Where Ept id the expected price level.
Equation A8 state that the real money balances depend on the expected
inflation. By following steps similar to those above we can show that:
Equation 9 state that the price level depend on current money supply and
expected future money supply.
Some economist use this model to argue that the credibility is important for
ending of hyperinflation because price level depend on both current and
expected future money.Inflation depend on both current and expected future
money growth. Therefore to end high inflation both money growth and
expected money growth must fall.
Expectation in turn depend on credibility in the perception that the central bank
is committed to a new more stable policy.
HOW CAN A CENTRAL BANK ACHIEVE CREDIBILITY IN
THE MIDST OF HYPERINFLATION
