In both cases the optimal policy distorts the labor-leisure choice but only in the case of sector-specific skills as private information are labor allocation decisions distorted.

This paper reconsiders the question of the revenue maximizing inflation rate in a general equilibrium framework with a labor-leisure choice, where money is held because it reduces transactions costs. In this framework, the revenue maximizing inflation tax rate is lower than that implied by Cagan's rule. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The continuum-of-goods feature of the model allows for the international transmission of monetary policies to occur at both intensive and extensive margins. At the intensive margin monetary policy is internationally transmitted via its impact on relative employment levels at home and abroad. This in turn alters the terms of trade, thereby affecting the range of commodities in which the home country has a comparative advantage. Monetary policies are thus transmitted at the extensive margin by influencing international patterns of trade and specialization. -Author}, Doi = {10.2307/135770}, Key = {fds238412} } @article{fds238413, Author = {Gardner, GW and Slottje, DJ and Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Tariff behavior in five European countries}, Journal = {Economics Letters}, Volume = {39}, Number = {1}, Pages = {73-78}, Publisher = {Elsevier BV}, Year = {1992}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0165-1765}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0165-1765(92)90104-7}, Abstract = {This paper examines the time series properties of average tariff rates for Denmark, France, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

In contrast to most other studies of optimal taxation in a monetary economy, money is treated as an intermediate good which is held because doing so economizes on the scarce resources that must be devoted to the exchange process. Attention is focused on the roles of the inflation tax, reserve requirements, and deposit taxes. The key result is that revenue considerations do not justify taxing cash and deposits. That is, the optimal tax structure calls for adopting the optimum quantity of money rule and setting deposit taxes to zero. When the optimal tax structure is in place, reserve requirements turn out to be irrelevant from both the fiscal and welfare perspectives. © 1989.}, Doi = {10.1016/0164-0704(89)90002-5}, Key = {fds238404} } @article{fds238405, Author = {Gardner, GW and Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Tariffs, interest rates, and the trade balance in the world economy}, Journal = {Journal of International Economics}, Volume = {27}, Number = {1-2}, Pages = {91-110}, Publisher = {Elsevier BV}, Year = {1989}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0022-1996}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10161/1963 Duke open access}, Abstract = {A two-commodity intertemporal framework is used to show that, in contrast to the conventional wisdom, both permanent and temporary tariffs may worsen the trade balance of a large country.

Therefore, adjustment costs associated with changes in money holdings are lower under a tariff while those associated with changes in consumption are higher. Simulation results are used to examined the implications of various structural parameters for lifetime utility under the two policies. © 1985.}, Doi = {10.1016/0022-1996(85)90035-2}, Key = {fds238398} } @article{fds238393, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {The Forward Rate as a Predictor of the Future Spot Rate, the Role of Policy, and Exchange Rate Regime Choice}, Journal = {International Economic Review}, Volume = {25}, Number = {3}, Pages = {527-527}, Publisher = {JSTOR}, Year = {1984}, Month = {October}, ISSN = {0020-6598}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1984ABW4700002&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Doi = {10.2307/2526217}, Key = {fds238393} } @article{fds238389, Author = {Kimbrough, KP and Koray, F}, Title = {Money, Output, and the Trade Balance: Theory and Evidence}, Journal = {The Canadian Journal of Economics}, Volume = {17}, Number = {3}, Pages = {508-508}, Publisher = {JSTOR}, Year = {1984}, Month = {August}, ISSN = {0008-4085}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1984TN39900008&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Doi = {10.2307/135189}, Key = {fds238389} } @article{fds238390, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {The Derivation and Interpretation of the Lucas Supply Function: Comment}, Journal = {Journal of Money, Credit and Banking}, Volume = {16}, Number = {3}, Pages = {367-367}, Publisher = {JSTOR}, Year = {1984}, Month = {August}, ISSN = {0022-2879}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1984TD70900012&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Doi = {10.2307/1992227}, Key = {fds238390} } @article{fds238392, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Commercial Policy and Aggregate Employment Under Rational Expectations}, Journal = {The Quarterly Journal of Economics}, Volume = {99}, Number = {3}, Pages = {567-567}, Publisher = {Oxford University Press (OUP)}, Year = {1984}, Month = {August}, ISSN = {0033-5533}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1984TH18700009&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Doi = {10.2307/1885965}, Key = {fds238392} } @article{fds238388, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {The Corporation Income Tax in the Open Economy}, Journal = {International Economic Review}, Volume = {25}, Number = {2}, Pages = {391-391}, Publisher = {JSTOR}, Year = {1984}, Month = {June}, ISSN = {0020-6598}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1984TL95300009&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Doi = {10.2307/2526205}, Key = {fds238388} } @article{fds238391, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Aggregate Information and the Role of Monetary Policy in an Open Economy}, Journal = {Journal of Political Economy}, Volume = {92}, Number = {2}, Pages = {268-285}, Publisher = {University of Chicago Press}, Year = {1984}, Month = {April}, ISSN = {0022-3808}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1984SN43300006&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Doi = {10.1086/261224}, Key = {fds238391} } @article{fds324319, Author = {Kimbrough, KP and Claassen, E and Salin, P}, Title = {Recent Issues in the Theory of Flexible Exchange Rates}, Journal = {Southern Economic Journal}, Volume = {50}, Number = {3}, Pages = {924-924}, Publisher = {JSTOR}, Year = {1984}, Month = {January}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.2307/1058022}, Doi = {10.2307/1058022}, Key = {fds324319} } @article{fds238386, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Asset preferences, trade in assets, and exchange rate behavior during the adjustment process}, Journal = {Atlantic Economic Journal}, Volume = {11}, Number = {2}, Pages = {52-62}, Publisher = {Springer Nature}, Year = {1983}, Month = {July}, ISSN = {0197-4254}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF02303368}, Doi = {10.1007/BF02303368}, Key = {fds238386} } @article{fds238387, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Exchange-rate policy and monetary information}, Journal = {Journal of International Money and Finance}, Volume = {2}, Number = {3}, Pages = {333-346}, Publisher = {Elsevier BV}, Year = {1983}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0261-5606}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10161/1968 Duke open access}, Abstract = {This paper develops a model of a small open economy in which the presence of local deviations from purchasing power parity give rise to differential information. It is assumed that the monetary authorities are committed to buy and sell foreign exchange in order to support an exchange-rate policy rule. It is demonstrated that exchange-rate policy can influence the distribution of real output (i) if agents possess incomplete and differential information and (ii) if they have contemporaneous money supply (or balance of payments) information. It is also shown that exchange-rate policy can be effective because of its ability to influence the information content of available monetary data. The argument is turned around and used to support the frequent release of monetary data. © 1983 Butterworth & Co (Publishers) Ltd.}, Doi = {10.1016/S0261-5606(83)80007-2}, Key = {fds238387} } @article{fds238418, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Price, output, and exchange rate movements in the open economy}, Journal = {Journal of Monetary Economics}, Volume = {11}, Number = {1}, Pages = {25-44}, Publisher = {Elsevier BV}, Year = {1983}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0304-3932}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10161/1973 Duke open access}, Abstract = {Since the advent of managed floating it has come to be accepted as a stylized fact that short-run deviations from purchasing power parity are both substantial and persistent. Two explanations of these deviations have been advanced in the literature. One emphasizes the role of changes in non-traded goods prices while the other views deviations from purchasing power parity as being due to sticky goods prices and slow adjustment of goods markets. This paper presents yet a third possible explanation of deviations from purchasing power parity - they may be necessary in order to facilitate the relative price changes that are required to maintain equilibrium in the face of unanticipated shocks. In addition, the issue of exchange rate overshooting is addressed. Whereas the sticky price models view exchange rate overshooting and exchange rate volatility as symptoms of some fundamental disequilibrium, the perspective taken here is that these events are, in principle, compatible with a world in which all markets clear continuously. © 1983.}, Doi = {10.1016/0304-3932(83)90012-0}, Key = {fds238418} } @article{fds238419, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {The information content of the exchange rate and the stability of real output under alternative exchange-rate regimes}, Journal = {Journal of International Money and Finance}, Volume = {2}, Number = {1}, Pages = {27-38}, Publisher = {Elsevier BV}, Year = {1983}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0261-5606}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10161/1969 Duke open access}, Abstract = {When the exchange rate is flexible, and thus responds to market forces, it provides agents with useful information, while when it is fixed (by a feedback rule) it does not. The implications of this asymmetry for the stability of real output under the two regimes is discussed. It is shown that whenever shocks are predominantly of one variety, or when domestic monetary shocks accompanied by one real shock, a flexible exchange rate does a better job of stabilizing real output than does a fixed exchange rate. These results undermine arguments favoring fixed exchange rates because they 'discipline' monetary policy. In addition, it is demonstrated that managed floating rules and exchange rate feedback rules are irrelevant for the distribution of real output. © 1983.}, Doi = {10.1016/0261-5606(83)90004-9}, Key = {fds238419} } @article{fds238416, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Growth, relative prices, and exchange rates}, Journal = {Economics Letters}, Volume = {10}, Number = {1-2}, Pages = {137-143}, Publisher = {Elsevier BV}, Year = {1982}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0165-1765}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0165-1765(82)90128-8}, Abstract = {Using the framework of the monetary (or asset market) approach to the exchange rate it is demonstrated that if growth alters relative prices the growing country's currency may depreciate rather than appreciate as suggested by Mundell. © 1982.}, Doi = {10.1016/0165-1765(82)90128-8}, Key = {fds238416} } @article{fds238417, Author = {Kimbrough, KP}, Title = {Real disturbances, the current account, and the exchange rate.
