At the headline parametization Lastly, the parametization could be effected by the addition of real frictions. These suppress the relationship between real output and marginal costs (see Gopinath and Itskhoki [2011]), which would show up as where R > 0 measures the size of the real friction. These have been popular because the slope of the Rotemberg Phillips curve appears too high, from a macroeconometric standpoint. The difficulty is that microeconometric evidence favours smaller values, which are too small to overturn these conclusions (see Beck and Lein [2020]). This is probably as far as one should take this exercise. This paper is available on arxiv under CC 4.0 license. Author: (1) David Staines. Author: Author: (1) David Staines.
