摘要: 对货币工资的超额增长是否会引起物价上涨这一古老问题,学术界目前仍争论不止。本文指出,影响深远的工资—成本加成价格理论其实是循环论证,无法证明工资超额增长会引起物价上涨;而马克思只考察了工人和资本家边际消费倾向相等的特殊情况,也未能证明工资超额增长不会引起物价上涨。基于资本家边际消费倾向未必总小于工人的事实,本文从理论上证明,货币工资的超额增长在资本家的边际消费倾向大于等于工人时不会推动物价上涨,反之则会推动物价上涨。

Abstract: It has been debating for hundreds of years that whether the growth of productivityadjusted money wages can cause price inflation. On the one hand, the influential wagecost markup pricing hypothesis is a circular argument, and cannot prove that the growth of productivityadjusted money wages can cause price inflation; on the other hand, Marx only investigated a special situation in which the marginal propensity to consume of the wage earners is equal to the capitalists, so he cannot prove that the growth of productivityadjusted money wages cannot cause price inflation. This paper theoretically proved that when the marginal propensity to consume of the wage earners is greater than the capitalists, the growth of productivityadjusted money wages will cause price inflation, and vice versa.
