Abstract

In the last decade, the potential macroeconomic effects of intermittent large adjustments in microeconomic variables such as prices, investment, consumption of durables or employment- a behaviour which may be justified by the presence of kinked adjustment costs- have been studied in models where economic agents continuously observe the optimal level of their decision variable. In this paper, we develop a simple model which introduces infrequent information in a kinked adjustment cost model by assuming that agents do not observe continuously the frictionless optimal level of the control variables.
