| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present project investigates the long-run effects of inflation on innovation, economic growth, and welfare from various viewpoints. One of the most important findings is in a paper published at European Economic Review in 2017. The paper develops a Schumpeterian growth model with endogenous entry of heterogeneous firms to analyze the effects of monetary policy on economic growth via a cash-in-advance constraint on R&D investment. It shows in the case of a positive entry cost, an increase in the nominal interest rate affects the distribution of innovations that are implemented and would have an inverted-U effect on economic growth if the entry cost is sufficiently large. We also calibrate the model to aggregate data of the US economy and find that the growth-maximizing inflation rate is about 3%, which is consistent with recent empirical estimates.
