文摘In this paper, in order to investigate whether the impact of different forms of interest rate differential may pass on to the flexible price monetary model, two flexible price monetary models, which are separately derived from the generalized monetary models with log-level interest rate differential and that with interest rate differential, are tested for China yuan to US dollar exchange rate. Through Johansen maximum likelihood method, we find that there is little support in the cointegrating coefllcient estimates for both flexible price monetary models for yuan/dollar exchange rate. However, the latter is generally better than the former in the light of sum of squared residual and log likelihood statistics. Therefore, we conclude that there is no transitive impact of different forms of interest rate differential on the flexible price monetary model.
