Money in the Production Function: a new Keynesian DSGE perspective

Jonathan Benchimol

No WP1304, ESSEC Working Papers from ESSEC Research Center, ESSEC Business School

Abstract: This paper proposes a New Keynesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model where real money balances enter the production function. By using a Bayesian analysis, our model shows that money is not an omitted input to the production process and rejects the decreasing returns to scale hypothesis. Our simulations suggest that money plays a negligible role in the dynamics of output and inflation, despite its inclusion in the production function. In addition, we introduce the flexible-price real money balances concept.
