Abstract
This paper analyses the effects of inflation on Ivorian fiscal variables by using the Aghevli- Khan model (1978) to estimate the time required for a change in the consumer price index to be fully reflected in the variables. The predictability of time-dependent adjustment coefficients is also investigated using the Kalman filter approach. Simulation experiments (e.g., temporary decrease or increase in GDP) are also used for policy implications. Estimations obtained from the study seem very useful for Côte d'Ivoire policymakers.
