Taylor Rule and Its Macroeconomics Relations
Mičúch, Marek ; Chytil, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Kupka, Martin (referee) ; Sedláček, Petr (referee)
Despite considerable research on the monetary policy rules, little is known about internal relation between policy rules targets. Research approach frequently consists in estimating parameters or identifying variables to make the rule operate accurately. The overall image that emerges from the literature is that there is no contradiction in attaining the targets once set properly. Dissertation switches attention to mutual feasibility of incorporated targets. To contribute to this strikingly overlooked fact hypothesis is tested. Analyzed are variances of inflation and output representing policy rule targets. Time regression processed throughout OLS technique, gap analysis and calculation of variances are applied as principal analytical tools. Examined are data for 14 countries. Countries are divided into two groups according to size of their economy: small economies (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Hungary, Ireland, The Nederlands and Slovak Republic); large economies (Euro zone, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden and USA). Results of the analysis show that once monetary authority follows policy rule with multiple targets it faces restriction. Rather than achieving both targets at one time it must respect trade off between them. According to data for selected countries hypothesis is accepted. Variances of output consistently proved to be higher than variances of inflation. Whence it follows that authority need to solve constrained optimization problem. It needs to pick out combination of differently large variances contrary to wining with all reaching low levels.

Models with rational expectation.
Bechyňák, Petr ; Pánková, Václava (advisor) ; Havrlant, David (referee)
Práce popisuje vývoj konceptu mekonomického očekávání od extrapolativního, přes adaptivní až po racionální, včetně modelů, v nichž byla tato očekávání použita. V druhé části je odvozen a popsán model, využívající právě racionální očekávání. Tento agregovaný makroekonomický model je pak aplikován na prostředí ČR. Je zde testován i samotný předpoklad racionálního očekávání, což je myšlenka novější, než samotný model.
