Abstract

Inflation and the level of total factor, capital and labor productivity are integrated of the same order and are cointegrated in each of the G7 countries. The long-run relationship is mainly negative, the magnitude generally small, and there is no strong pattern of Granger causality between inflation and productivity in the short-run. Also, inflation shocks appear to have a negligible effect on productivity in the United States in both the short-and long-run; in Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom the long-run adverse effects are more substantial.
