Comment on Frenkel and Taylor's "Money Demand and Inflation in Yugoslavia, 1980-1989." (response to Jacob A. Frenkel and Mark P. Taylor, Journal of Macroeconomics, vol. 15, p. 455, 1993)
Article Abstract:
A modified Cagan model based on the theory that real money and inflation are cointegrated is analyzed. The model shows the large dispersion of money demand semielasticity when applied to high inflation episodes. However, it is argued that the model cannot explain these high inflation episodes based using from Yugoslavia. It is also shown that real money and inflation are not cointegrated when the structural break of inflation is taken into account.
