Does State-Dependent Wage Setting Generate Multiple Equilibria?

2018 
Does wage setting exhibit strategic complementarity and produce multiple equilib- ria? This study constructs a discrete-time New Keynesian model in which the timing of individual wage adjustments is endogenous. I explore steady-state equilibrium of the state-dependent wage-setting model both analytically and numerically. For reasonable parameter values, complementarity in wage setting is weak and multiple equilibria are unlikely to exist at the steady state. The uniqueness of equilibrium is robust to imperfect consumption insurance.
