Abstract: The mechanism of a standard New-Keynesian model is laid out. A particular focus is on cap- ital accumulation, the key ingredient in the transition from the basic framework to medium- scale DSGE models. The widely held view that monetary policy affects output and inflation in these models through a real interest rate channel is misguided. A decline in output and inflation is consistent with a decline, increase, or no change in the real rate. The expected path of Taylor rule shocks and the New-Keynesian Phillips Curve are key for inflation and output; the real rate largely reflects consumption smoothing.
