Macroeconomic Interdependence in a Two-Country DSGE Model under Diverging Interest-Rate Rules



A. Appendix

with 0n P (h)C (h)dh = PHCH. Now combine the preceding equation with the preliminary demand

function from above. Then one gets for C (h):

C(h) = P (h)


PH CH

Ro P(h)1 dh


Plugging this into the definition of CH , one gets:


1

P (h)


PH CH

Ro P(h)1 dh


Dividing this formula by CH and raising both sides of the resulting equation to the power of (θ — 1)/θ, I
obtain:

1'∙∙ ndι‰R-rrP^.

dh,


which can be solved for PH to finally obtain the domestic PPI given by equation (6):

PH =

Plugging this formula into the last given equation in C (h), one eventually gets equation (10):
