Abstract :
This paper discusses on price point and price rigidity, which are the breakthrough of price rigidity´s micro basement of Keynesianism, focusing on the micro causes of price rigidity´s formation, analysing the empirical data. The existing theories of firms´ optimal reaction to consumers´ rational inattention are likely to explain the actual importance of price point and the relationship between price point and price rigidity.
