INTERVENTIONS - DISEQUILIBRIA Markets indicator consequences 1.Product market prices inflation. deflation 2.Labor market wages unemployment 3.Capital market interests capacity utilization 4.Foreign exchange exch. rate deficit. surplus. Problems Conflicting goals: Phillips curve Indirect effects: Lags: establishing the problem. decission making. implementation
ECONOMIC MODEL C=f(Y-T) C = a + b*(Y-T) consumptionfunction I=g(DY, R) I = c*DY + d*R investmentfunction G=T G = T government Y=C+I+G Y=C+I+G identity GDP Components: variables: endogenous. exogenous parameters: a>0. 0<b<1. c>0. d<0 equations: behavoiuristic. instituonal. tehnical. identities

FINANCING OF BUDGET DEFICIT T – G = Bgp + Bgf + dH + dR + PP + dZ T- G = Bgp+ Bgf + dH Problems: dH – inflation Bgp – crowding out (physical. financial) Bgf - foreign savings. monetization dH – money printing dH = ( p + r )/ v = p/v + r/v dH = p/v (inflationary tax) + r/v (seignorage) ************** Bgp – borrowing at home. Bgf - borrowing abroad. H – base money. dR – reduction in foreign exchange reserves. PP – property sales. Z – late payments p – inflation. r – growth. v – velocity of circulation
RESOLVING PUBLIC DEBT dD = D(i-r) + PR – dH solvingbyfiscalpolicy (1) dD = 0 0 = D*(i-r) + PR - PR = D*(i-r) solvingbyinflation (2) dD = 0 0 = D*(i-r) – (p+r)/v (p+r) = v*(D*(i-r)) p = v* D* (i-r) – r D – publicdebt/GDP. PR – primary deficit/BDP . p – inflation. i – interestrate. r – growth. v – velocityofcirculation Example: v=10, D=0.8*GDP, i=0.05, r=0.02 -PR =0.8*(0.05-0.02) = 0.024 2.4% primarysurplus p =10*0.8*(0.05-0.02)-0.02=0.22 22% inflation
