Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of electricity generation on Price level of Pakistan’s economy during period from 1981 to 2013. ARDL estimation technique is followed for reliable long run and short run estimates of the model. For elasticities of Price level, all variables are transformed into natural log form. Electricity Generation is discovered as declining price level while exports, money supply and external debt are increasing price level of Pakistan.
