| Research Abstract |
This research project supported by this research fund theoretically and empirically analyzed how variations in prices among the same goods or services (i.e., the law-of-one-price deviations) interact with the frequency of price adjustment. In particular, one of the papers in this project shows the possibility that imperfect information held by firms may explain inconsistency between the sticky price models and the reality regarding the law-of-one-price deviations observed in the U.S. and Canada. In another paper, my co-authors and I find how the law-of-one-price deviations observed in Japanese cities are related to the frequency of price adjustment.
