TÜRKİYE EKONOMİSİ İÇİN ÜLKE-İÇİ FİYATLARIN YAKINSAMASI: PPP VARSAYIMI İÇİN ALT-BÖLGESEL TOPLULAŞTIRILMAMIŞ VERİ KULLANAN BİR PANEL VERİ ARAŞTIRMASI

Abstract

Bu çalışma Türkiye ekonomisinden ülke-içi fiyatların iktisat kuramındaki uzun-dönem satın alma gücü paritesine destek veren durağan bir ilişki olarak belirtilebilmesi durumunu incelemeye çalışmaktadır. Bu amaçla ekonominin altbölgesel bir sınıflandırması 2005-2012 araştırma dönemi için dikkate alınmakta, ve Esaka 2003 izlenerek, çalışma 12 toplulaştırılmamış tüketici fiyat endeksinden oluşan bir panel tahmin yapısını Türkiye ekonomisinin alt-bölgeleri arasında malların göreceli fiyatlarının durağan zaman serisi özellikleri ile temsil edilip edilemeyeceğini araştırmak için kullanmaktadır

CONVERGENCE OF IN-COUNTRY PRICES FOR THE TURKISH ECONOMY: A PANEL DATA SEARCH FOR THE PPP HYPOTHESIS USING SUB-REGIONAL DISAGGREGATED DATA

Abstract

This paper tries to examine that in-country prices from the Turkish economy can be specified as a stationary relationship giving support to the long-run purchasing power parity in economics theory. For this purpose, a sub-regional categorization of the economy is considered over the investigation period of 2005-2012, and, following Esaka 2003 , the study uses a panel estimation framework consisting of 12 disaggregated consumer price indices to search for whether the relative prices of goods between sub-regions of the Turkish economy can be represented by stationary time series properties.
