Abstract Data from the London gold market are utilized to investigate the nature, frequency, and causes of rounding in transactions prices to the nearest 5, 10, 25, 50 or 100 cents. The basic theoretical model is presented and hypotheses formulated. The data consist of the morning and afternoon fixing prices in London from January 2, 1975, to April 30, 1981. The results indicate that: 1. All returns are measured with error and therefore all empirical work is subject to subtle ''errors in variables problems.'' 2. The degree of rounding may be used as a new proxy in studies for the amount of information in the market. 3. The rules on rounding should be considered in the design of new financial contracts. 4. The market's organization may influence the precision with which prices are formed. The results have implications for the optimal design of securities.
AbstractList This article uses data from the London gold market to investigate the nature, frequency, and causes of rounding in transactions prices. The degree of price resolution--whether prices are quoted to the nearest 5, 10, 25, 50, or 100 cents-- is not constant, but rather is a function of the amount of information in the market, and the level and variability of the price. This article, therefore, provides further insight into the determination of prices in competitive markets.
