• New Phillips Curve with Alternative Marginal Cost Measures for Canada, the United States, and the Euro Area

  Staff Working Paper 2001-25 Edith Gagnon, Hashmat Khan

  Recent research on the new Phillips curve (NPC) (e.g., Galí, Gertler, and López-Salido 2001a) gives marginal cost an important role in capturing pressures on inflation. In this paper we assess the case for using alternative measures of marginal cost to improve the empirical fit of the NPC.
