Surveying of Fiscal Dominance Effect on Social Welfare in a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model

In this paper, a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model have been designed to investigate Fiscal Dominance' effect on social welfare. The designed model has solved by calibration method. Results shows that the degree of fiscal dominance in Iran economy is about 92 percent and decreasing of Fiscal Dominance would lead to decreasing of output loss and increasing of social welfare. However, these results do not mean that the zero degree of fiscal dominance would maximize the social welfare in Iran. Results indicate that increasing of independence of monetary policy to upper than .5 (50 percents) does not any significant positive effect on social welfare.
