Abstract

This paper computes the steady-state optimal rate of inflation in a model with monopolistic competition under two different sticky-price specifications, Calvo (1983) and Taylor (1980).The optimal rate of inflation is positive and almost identical to the ratio between the rate of discount and the Dixit-Stiglitzelasticity.
