Book excerpt: We investigate asymmetric price responses by considering a unique, highly disaggregate retailer- and product-level time series at a major supermarket chain. We find asymmetry exists, but is limited in scope and there is no evidence of a pervasive chain wide asymmetric pricing strategy. To explain product level variation, we borrow from both economic and marketing perspectives to suggest menu costs, operational efficiency, competition, and consumer perceptions as important factors. The evidence suggests an efficiency-based rationale for asymmetry. This study complements that of Peltzman (2000. J. Polit. Econ. 108(3): 466-502.) who found no systematic asymmetry in a study of the same data considered at a more aggregate level.

Book excerpt: What is Menu Cost One of the costs that a company incurs as a result of adjusting its prices is referred to as the menu cost in economics. This is one of the microeconomic explanations that New Keynesian economists put up to explain the price-stickiness that exists in the macroeconomy. It was the expenditure that restaurants incur when they print fresh menus in order to adjust the prices of products that gave rise to the term. Nevertheless, economists have broadened the scope of its term to encompass the costs associated with altering prices in a more comprehensive sense. One way to categorize the expenses involved with the menu is as follows: costs associated with alerting the consumer, costs related with planning for and deciding on a price adjustment, and costs associated with the impact of consumers' probable reluctance to buy at the new price. The expenses associated with updating computer systems, re-tagging goods, changing signage, printing new menus, the costs associated with making mistakes, and the costs associated with employing consultants to establish new pricing strategies are all examples of menu costs. At the same time, businesses have the ability to lower the costs of their menus by implementing clever pricing strategies, which in turn reduces the need for constant adjustments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrary to existing menu cost models we assume oligopolistic interaction. Symmetric duopoly may lead to asymmetric adjustment even when menu costs are negligible: In some equilibria only one Orm adjusts to negative shocks, while both Orms adjust to positive shocks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We model the optimal price setting problem of a firm in the presence of both information and menu costs. In this problem the firm optimally decides when to collect costly information on the adequacy of its price, an activity which we refer to as a price "review". Upon each review, the firm chooses whether to adjust its price, subject to a menu cost, and when to conduct the next price review. This behavior is consistent with recent survey evidence documenting that firms revise prices infrequently and that only a few price revisions yield a price adjustment. The goal of the paper is to study how the firm's choices map into several observable statistics, depending on the level and relative magnitude of the information vs the menu cost. The observable statistics are: the frequency of price reviews, the frequency of price adjustments, the size-distribution of price adjustments, and the shape of the hazard rate of price adjustments. We provide an analytical characterization of the firm decisions and a mapping from the structural parameters to the observable statistics. We compare these statistics with the ones obtained for the models with only one type of cost. The predictions of the model can, with suitable data, be used to quantify the importance of the menu cost vs. the information cost. We also consider a version of the model where several price adjustment are allowed between observations, a form of price plans or indexation. We find that no indexation is optimal for small inflation rates. Hard-copy subscribers may access the tables for this paper here

Book excerpt: A model of endogenous price adjustment under money growth is presented. Firms follow (s, S) pricing policies and price revisions are imperfectly synchronized. In the aggregate, price stickiness disappears and money is neutral. The connection between firm price adjustment and relative price variability in the presence of monetary growth is also investigated. The results contrast with those obtained in models with exogenous fixed timing of price adjustment

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We model the decisions of a multi-product firm that faces a fixed "menu" cost: once it is paid, the firm can adjust the price of all its products. We characterize analytically the steady state firm's decisions in terms of the structural parameters: the variability of the flexible prices, the curvature of the profit function, the size of the menu cost, and the number of products sold. We provide expressions for the steady state frequency of adjustment, the hazard rate of price adjustments, and the size distribution of price changes, all in terms of the structural parameters. We study analytically the impulse response of aggregate prices and output to a monetary shock. The size of the output response and its duration increase with the number of products, they more than double as the number of products goes from 1 to ten, quickly converging to the ones of Taylor's staggered price model.
