Q2. What is the main impact of reducing the degree of wage stickiness on other parameters?
The main impact of reducing the degree of wage stickiness on the other parameters concerns the elasticity of wages with respect to employment: the labour supply elasticity becomes much smaller and falls from a value of 1.92 to 0.25.
Q3. What is the effect of the stochastic behaviour of the system of linear rational expectations equations?
The stochastic behaviour of the system of linear rational expectations equations isdriven by seven exogenous disturbances: total factor productivity ( ), investment-specific technology( ), risk premium ( ), exogenous spending ( ), price mark-up ( ), wage mark-up ( ) andmonetary policy ( ) shocks.
Q4. What is the effect of a productivity shock on hours worked?
A positive productivity shock leads to an expansion of aggregate demand, output and real wages, but an immediate and significant reduction in hours worked.
Q5. What is the effect of the reduced hump-shaped endogenous dynamics of the model?
The reduced hump-shaped endogenous dynamics of the model due to these restrictions is compensated mainly by higher and more persistent exogenous shocks to productivity, investment, consumption and government spending.
