A macroeconomic disequilibrium model is developed for the Federal Republic of Germany. Starting with a microeconomic model of a firm’s behaviour, the optimal dynamic adjustment of employment and investment is derived. The model of the firm is complemented by an explicit aggregation procedure from which it derives macroeconomic relations. The model is estimated with macroeconomic data for the Federal Republic of Germany. An important feature is the consistent introduction of dynamic adjustment into a model of the firm. A new method is the particular approach of a delayed adjustment of employment and investment. The estimation results show significant underutilizations of labour and capital, and indicate the importance of supply constraints for imports and exports. As the most prominent result, they reveal the importance of the slow adjustment of employment and investment for the macroeconomic situation in Germany, especially for the persistence of high unemployment in the 1980s.
