The frequency of price adjustment
Open accessAbstract
Data on the newsstand prices of American magazines is used to investigate the determinants of the frequency of nominal price change. Magazine price changes, often coming after real prices have fallen by one quarter, provide strong evidence for monopolistic sticky price models. The data is examined by applying a fixed effects logit specification to the price change rule implied by a target-threshold model of a firm facing general price inflation, an uncertain future and costly nominal adjustment. The essay concludes that higher inflation leads to more frequent price adjustment and that the real cost of price changes varies with the size of a real price change.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
