Welfare costs of shifting trend inflation: Staggered wage and price contracts

We develop a New Keynesian model featuring Calvo price setting and Calvo wage setting to study welfare consequences of exogenous variations in trend inflation. We find that shifting trend inflation produces a large welfare cost, which can be mainly accounted not only by a reduction of the average level of consumption and working hours, but also by an increase in their volatility. |
