This paper demonstrates the importance of properly measuring inflation when estimating Federal Reserve reaction functions. Based on static Taylor rule type reaction functions the median consumer price index (MCPI) is a better measure of information on monetary inflation than either the consumer price index (CPI) or the GDP chain-type price index (CTPI) or several other common measures of inflation. The issue is important when attempting to assess the stance of monetary policy; the Federal Reserve's goal of maintaining price stability must account for movements in the overall price-level and not changes in relative price.

Economic science is generally considered less viable than the physical sciences. Sophisticated mathematical models of the economy have been developed but their accuracy is questionable to the point that the present economic crisis is often blamed on an unwarranted faith in faulty mathematical models. In this paper, we claim that the mathematical handling of economics has actually been reasonably successful and that models are not the cause behind the present crisis. The science of economics does not study immutable laws of nature but the complex human artefacts that are our economies and our financial markets, artefacts that are designed to be largely uncertain. We could make our economies and our markets less subject to uncertainty, and mathematical models more faithful to empirical da...

The U.S. economy during Greenspan's tenure as the Federal Reserve Chairman exhibited the lowest unemployment rate, the most stability in terms of real GDP growth, employment, inflation, and interest rates when compared to Canada and United Kingdom. This indicates that the Fed did manage to minimize uncertainty and maximize employment during the period. However, while the U.S. economy is able to generate more job opportunities with each percentage point of GDP growth, U.S. consumers face the fastest price increase for each percentage point of GDP growth, and the second highest price increase for each percentage point of employment rate, and U.S. firms pay the highest financing costs per unit of growth among the three countries.
