Abstract

Empirical results support the hypothesis that agricultural prices respond faster than manufactured product prices to a change in money supply in the United States. Sims' vector autoregression (VAR) technique was applied in examining this hypothesis. The monte-carlo integration method was used to test the significance of the impulse responses generated by the VAR technique.
