Abstract

This paper studies the effects of monetary policies on employment, capital accumulation, consumption, and the term structure of interestrates in a cash-in-advance economy, where money is required for consumption expenditures. Monetary policy involves targeting the inflation rate or the nominal interest rate. The detail dynamics of the model are fully worked out As no numerical analysis is involved, we are able to identify very clearly the different channels through which monetary policy will impinge on the important macroeconomic variables.
