Summary: | This paper determines how fiscal policy rule interacts with monetary policy rule affect the conditions of equilibrium
determinacy when moving from continuous to discrete time. The monetary authority follows an interest rate-targeting
rule while the fiscal authority follows a debt-targeting rule. It is shown that the local determinacy of an equilibrium
path is determinate under the active monetary/passive fiscal regime, while the examination of other regimes is shown
to be indeterminate. These findings are in stark contrast with the case of the continuous time model, suggesting that
the timing assumptions play an important role in determining local equilibrium. |
