Getting It Wrong: How Faulty Monetary Statistics Undermine the Fed, the Financial System, and the Economy William A. Barnett This book appeared from MIT Press in January 2012 in both hardcover and paperback editions. The hardcover edition is a library edition, missing the cover design and back cover information. |
| 2011 |
Financial Aggregation and Index Number Theory William A. Barnett and Marcelle Chauvet This book contains a collection of Barnett's most important, recent, journal publications in monetary and financial measurement. The collection is subsequent to the year 2000, during which the prior collection, Barnett and Serletis (2000), leaves off. The two books together contain fundamental background relevant to AMFM, and are up to date to the year 2011, when this book appeared. |
| 2007 |
The Demand for Money: Theoretical and Empirical Approaches, Second Edition Apostolos Serletis This book was published by Springer. The book is a textbook presentation, using valid aggregation and index number theory. |
| 2007 |
Inside the Economist's Mind: Conversations with Eminent Economists William A. Barnett and Paul A. Samuelson This book is a collection of interviews with many of the world's most eminent economists, including eight Nobel Laureates, two central bank governors, and a chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors. The book has been translated into seven languages and has its own web site, linked to this entry in the AMFM library. The book also has its own Blog for discussion of issues raised by the book. |

| 1989 |
Money Demand and Monetary Policy Douglas Fisher This textbook, published by University of Michigan Press, uses valid aggregation theory and index number theory in a more elementary manner than the Serletis and Rahman (2007) book, which is more appropriate for a graduate course. The Fisher book is suitable for an undergraduate course. |
| 1981 |
Consumer Demand and Labor Supply William A. Barnett W. A. Barnett's 1981 book, Consumer Demand and Labor Supply is out of print but has been scanned and put online. Chapter 7 is highly relevant to AMFM. That chapter provides systematic presentation of the relevant, fundamental theory and empirical applications, following publication of Barnett's seminal 1980 Journal of Econometrics paper, which marked the beginning of the modern literature on monetary aggregation and index number theory. |
Important Papers Highly Relevant to AMFM |
| 2011 |
A Comprehensive Revision of the U.S. Monetary Services (Divisia) Indexes Richard G. Anderson and Barry E. Jones This paper about the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank's Divisia monetary aggregates has appeared in the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Review, Sept/Oct, vol. 93, no. 4, 2011, pp. 325-359. |
| 2011 |
The Case for Divisia Money Targeting Apostolos Serletis and Sajjadur Rahman This important paper has been submitted to the journal, Macroeconomic Dynamics. |
| 2010 |
How Better Monetary Statistics Could Have Signaled the Financial Crisis William A. Barnett and Marcelle Chauvet This important paper explores the disconnect of Federal Reserve data from index number theory and contains some of the motivation for Barnett's forthcoming MIT Press book, Getting It Wrong. We find that most recessions in the past 50 years were preceded by more contractionary monetary policy than indicated by simple-sum monetary data. Divisia monetary aggregate growth rates were generally lower than simple-sum aggregate growth rates in the period preceding the Great Moderation, and higher since the mid 1980s. Monetary policy was more contractionary than likely intended before the 2001 recession and more expansionary than likely intended during the subsequent recovery. A revised draft of this paper appeared in the Journal of Econometrics, vol. 161, no. 1, March 2011, pp. 6-23.
|
| 2010 |
The Barnett Critique After Three Decades: A New Keynesian Analysis Michael T. Belongia and Peter N. Ireland This paper has been submitted to a Journal of Econometrics special issue being produced in honor of the paper, Barnett (1980). The editors of the special issue are James Heckman and Apostolos Serletis. |
| 2007 |
Multilateral Aggregation-Theoretic Monetary Aggregation over Heterogeneous Countries William A. Barnett This paper appeared in revised form in the Journal of Econometrics, vol. 136, no. 2, February 2007, pp 457-482. It derives fundamental new theory for measuring monetary service flows aggregated over countries within a multicountry economic union and for monitoring distribution effects across countries within the union. The longer form ECB working paper, also included within the AMFM library, incorporates more specialized theory relevant to application of the general theory to the European Monetary Union. This paper is reprinted in the book, Barnett and Chauvet (2011), as chapter 6, and a revised version appears as appendix 3 to the new book, Barnett (2011). |
| 2005 |
On the User Costs of Risky Monetary Assets William A. Barnett and Shu Wu A revised draft of this working paper appered in the Annals of Finance," vol. 1, no. 1, January 2005, pp. 35-50, and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Chauvet (2011), as chapter 3. We extend the monetary-asset user-cost risk adjustment of Barnett, Liu, Xu, and Jensen (1997) and their risk-adjusted Divisia monetary aggregates to the case of multiple non-monetary assets and intertemporal non-separability. Our model generates larger and more accurate CCAPM user-cost risk adjustments than those in Barnett, Liu, Xu, and Jensen. |
| 1997a |
Fellow's Opinion: Econometrics, Data, and the World Wide Web William A. Barnett This paper advocated an increased role for independent centers in providing economic data on the web and can be viewed as anticipating this Center for Financial Stability over a decade in advance. A revised draft of this working paper appeared in the Journal of Econometrics, vol. 77, 1997, pp. 297-302. |
| 1997b |
Which Road Leads to Stable Money Demand William A. Barnett This important working paper was subsequently published in a special issue of the Economic Journal, vol. 107, no. 443, July 1997, pp. 1171-1185, and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 24. |
| 1997 |
The CAPM Risk Adjustment Needed for Exact Aggregation over Financial Assets William A. Barnett, Yi Liu, Haiyang Xu, and Mark Jensen This fundamentally important paper extended the field of index number theory to the case of contemporaneous risk. Much of this working paper subsequently appeared as "The CAPM Risk Adjustment for Exact Aggregation over Financial Assets," by W. A. Barnett, Yi Liu, and Mark Jensen, in Macroeconomic Dynamics, vol. 1, no. 2, 1997, pp. 485-512, and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 12. Much of this theory is included in appendix 4 of the new book, Barnett (2011). |
| 1996 |
Measurement Matters: Recent Results from Monetary Economics Reexamined Michael T. Belongia This paper appeared in the Journal of Political Economy, vol. 104, no. 5, October, pp. 1065-1083. |
| 1995 |
Money, Output, and Prices: Evidence from a New Monetary Aggregate Julio J. Rotemberg, John C. Driscoll, and James M. Poterba This NBER Working Paper No. 3824 appeared in revised form in the Journal of Business and Economic Statistics, vol. 13, no. 1, January, pp. 67-83. The paper originated the CE index as a measure of monetary service flow. Barnett (1991) proved that the CE index is inferior to the Divisia index as a flow measure. But Barnett (1991) also proved that the CE index can measure the economic capital stock of money as the discounted, expected Divisia flow under martingale expectations. This result has motivated the subsequent research on measuring the economic capital stock of money under weaker assumptions on expectations, such as Barnett, Chae, and Keating (2006) and Barnett, Keating, and Kelly (2008). |
| 1994 |
A Perspective on the Current State of Macroeconomic Theory William A. Barnett This original working paper has appeared in a revised form in the International Journal of Systems Science, vol. 25, no. 5, 1994, pp. 839-848, and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 25. That special edition consisted of opinion papers regarding the state of the field of macroeconomics. This paper contains my views on that subject. |
| 1994 |
Empirical Evidence on the Recent Behavior and Usefulness of Simple-Sum and Weighted Measures of the Money Stock K. Alec Chrystal and Ronald MacDonald This paper coined the term "Barnett critique." The paper appeared in the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank Review, March/April, vol. 76, no. 2, pp. 73 - 109. |
| 1989 |
The Changing Empirical Definition of Money: Some Estimates from a Model of the Demand for Money Substitutes Michael T. Belongia and James A. Chalfant This paper appeared in the Journal of Political Economy, vol. 97, pp. 387-97. |
| 1987 |
The Microeconomic Theory of Monetary Aggregation William A. Barnett This paper provides a systematic derivation of the theory of monetary aggregation under perfect certainty for consumers, firms, and financial intermediaries. The paper first appeared in W. A. Barnett and K. Singleton (eds.), New Approaches to Monetary Economics, and was reprinted as chapter 3 of the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000). A revised version of that paper appears as appendix 1 to the new book, Barnett (2011). |
| 1987 |
Money in the Utility Function: An Empirical Implementation James M. Poterba and Julio J. Rotemberg This NBER Working Paper No. 1796 appeared in the book, Barnett and Singleton (eds.), New Approaches to Monetary Economics, Cambridge U. Press, pp. 219-240. This paper was the first to point out that index number theory had not been extended to the case risk in prices and interest rates. This important insight motivated the subsequent, successful extension of the field of index number theory to include risk by Barnett and Liu (1997) and Barnett, Liu, and Jensen (1997). |
| 1984 |
The New Divisia Monetary Aggregates William A. Barnett, Edward K. Offenbacher, and Paul A. Spindt This paper, based upon Barnett (1980), contains the first empirical comparisons of Divisia monetary aggregates with simple-sum monetary aggregates in policy applications. That paper, published in the Journal of Political Economy, vol. 92, 1984, pp. 1049-1085, has been reprinted as chapter 17 of the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000). |
| 1981 |
Aggregation of Monetary Assets William A. Barnett The landmark paper that began the modern literature on monetary aggregation and index number theory is Barnett's "Economic Monetary Aggregates: An Application of Index Number and Aggregation Theory," Journal of Econometrics, September 1980, pp. 11-48, and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 2. The published paper cannot be put online, since the copyright is owned by the publisher. But the original, longer working paper, which contains more than appears in the published journal article, appeared as chapter 7 of Barnett's book, Consumer Demand and Labor Supply. Since that book now is out of print, we can put that chapter online and have done so here. |
| 1980 |
Economic Monetary Aggregates: An Application of Aggregation and Index Number Theory William A. Barnett This paper contains the first derivation of the Divisia money formula and the first computation and use of Divisia monetary aggregates. The paper also contains the derivation and use of the Fisher idea monetary-aggregation formula. The paper appeared in the Journal of Econometrics, vol. 14, pp. 11-48, and was reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 1. |
| 1978 |
The User Cost of Money William A. Barnett This paper, which contains the first mathematical derivation of the user-cost price of money, was published in Economic Letters, vol. 1, no. 2, pp. 145-149. The paper is reprinted as chapter 1 of the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000). This proof ended the long debate about the "price of money" and provided the initial result needed in Barnett's (1980) derivation of the Divisia and Fisher ideal monetary aggregates. |

Statistics under the Spotlight: Improving the Consumer Price Index William A. Barnett, Katharine G. Abraham, Robert J. Gordon, Jack E. Triplett, David W. Wilcox, and Kirk M. Wolter This document includes the transcript of a tape-recorded statement by W. A. Barnett and the panel discussion that followed on the subject of the Consumer Price Index and of federal data quality. The tape recording was from an invited session, organized by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, at the annual meetings of the American Statistical Association in Chicago in 1996. Plots are provided of a newly merged long term data base produced by splicing Commerce Department data with Kuznet's earlier historical data base. The result is consumption quantity and price data at various levels of aggregation linked directly to federal data updates, but extending back over a century of economic history. This unique data base was produced by Barry Jones and Travis Nesmith, while working as Visiting Scholars at the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank. The full transcript appeared in the American Statistical Association's 1996 Proceedings of the Section on Government Statistics. |

A Reply to Julio J. Rotemberg William A. Barnett This paper appeared in the book, M. T. Belongia (ed.), Monetary Policy on the 75th Anniversary of the Federal Reserve System, Kluwer Academic, Boston, pp. 232-244, and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 14. The theory developed in this paper is the foundation for appendix 2 in the new book, Barnett (2011). The paper derives the economic stock of money as the discounted present value of the service flow and shows that the CE index can measure that stock under martingale expectations. |

Recent Monetary Policy and the Divisia Monetary Aggregates William A. Barnett This paper demonstrated that Paul Volcker's policy during the period of the "monetarist experiment" produced a recession, because the policy was tighter than reflected by the official simple-sum monetary aggregates. Those simple-sum aggregates were on the intended target path, but the Divisia monetary aggregates were growing half as fast as the simple-sum aggregates and hence produced a greater shock to the economy than intended. The paper appeared in the American Statistical Association journal, the American Statistician, vol. 38, pp. 162-172, and is reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 23. |
| 1983a |
New Indices of Money Supply and the Flexible Laurent Demand System William A. Barnett The "Barnett critique" is about internal inconsistency among data construction formulas and the models within which the formulas are used in applications. That internal inconsistency can produce the appearance of structural change, when none has occurred. The paper specifies and estimates a new demand-for-money system of equations, with Divisia monetary aggregates nested within them, in an entirely coherent manner. The paper appeared in the Journal of Business and Economic Statistics, vol. 1, pp. 7-23 and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 16. A more recent, similar paper by Apostolos Serletis and Asghar Shahmoradi, "Bayesian Estimation of Flexible Functional Forms, Curvature Conditions and the Demand for Assets," appears as chapter 4 in the book, W.

Understanding the New Divisia Monetary Aggregate William A. Barnett This paper was produced to make the Divisia-monetary-aggregates formula understandable to users not fully familiar with the relevant index-number and aggregation theories. The paper also explains the source of various occasional misunderstandings about the formula and theory. The paper appeared in the Review of Public Data Use, vol. 11, pp. 349-355 and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 4. A revised version also appears as appendix 5 in the new book, Barnett (2011). |

The Optimal Level of Monetary Aggregation William A. Barnett This paper explores the theory and empirical evidence relevant to choosing the optimal level of monetary aggregation. When components are properly weighted in accordance with index number theory, the broadest level of aggregation captures the most information. Sadly the Federal Reserve, in correctly recognizing that improperly-weighted monetary aggregates deteriorate as the level of aggregation increases, terminated its two broad aggregates, M3 and L, rather than correcting the improperly-weighted simple-sum formula. The paper originally appeared in the Journal of Money, Credit, and Banking, vol 1, pp. 687-710 and has been reprinted in the book, Barnett and Serletis (2000), as chapter 7. |
