The Effects Of Protection On The Patter Of Trade: A Disaggregated Analysis (A), Jon D. Haveman, U. C. Nair, Jerry Thursby Jan 1997

The Effects Of Protection On The Patter Of Trade: A Disaggregated Analysis (A), Jon D. Haveman, U. C. Nair, Jerry Thursby

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

We analyze the effects of protection using disaggregated data. This permits analysis of distinct effects of tariffs and NTBs on trade. Our analysis indicates that tariffs tend to shift trade towards larger exporters. We find significant trade diversion caused by tariffs. In the case of NTBs, we find quantitative barriers are more likely to raise prices than are price restrictions. Quantity barriers appear to lead exporters to concentrate on higher priced varieties. We do not find much evidence to suggest that countries not targeted by an NTB gain at the expense of targeted countries. We find that NTBs tend to …


Currency Boards, Expectations And Inflation Persistence, J. A. Carlson Jan 1997

Currency Boards, Expectations And Inflation Persistence, J. A. Carlson

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

Adopting the exchange rate as a nominal anchor for monetary stabilization has proved costly in a number of countries as inflationary inertia produces severe real exchange rate appreciation. What causes inflation persistence? Complementary to existing explanation such as staggered contracts and low credibility, we note that the introduction of a new monetary rule, such as a fixed exchange rate reduces inflationary expectations immediately to the target level only if all agents understand the implications of the rule.


Shareholder Wealth Effects On Joint Venture Termination: A Transaction Cost Analysis, J. J. Reuer Jan 1997

Shareholder Wealth Effects On Joint Venture Termination: A Transaction Cost Analysis, J. J. Reuer

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

Managing joint venture (JV transitions can have implications for parent firm performance as JVs become important, albeit temporary, instruments of firms' corporate and international strategies. This study examines the average shareholder wealth effects of five specific types of JV termination. Empirical evidence from U.S. firms terminating domestic and international JVs reveals venture termination neither positively nor negatively influences firm value on average, and no one type of JV termination is superior to its alternatives in general.


Cross-National Empirical Generalization Of A Supplier Selection And Usage Model For Foreign Exchange Services, D. Bowman, J. U. Farley, D. C. Schmittlein Jan 1997

Cross-National Empirical Generalization Of A Supplier Selection And Usage Model For Foreign Exchange Services, D. Bowman, J. U. Farley, D. C. Schmittlein

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

This paper tests generalizations across four countries of an industrial marketing model applied to foreign exchange services which banks sell to large corporations. The process by which customers elicit bids from the marketplace, evaluate suppliers, and award business is used in a two-step framework typical for industrial markets: (1) factors important to winning and/or retaining any business (supplier selection) in a context of multiple suppliers; and (2) factors important to growing business volume of a particular supplier (supplier usage).


Measurement Of Perceived Environmental Uncertainties: Response And Extension, K. D. Miller Jan 1997

Measurement Of Perceived Environmental Uncertainties: Response And Extension, K. D. Miller

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

Miller (1993) presented an instrument for measuring managers' perceptions of the environmental uncertainties relevant to international business. Application of this instrument by Werner, Brouthers, and Brouthers (1996), led them to suggest an alternative measurement instrument. This study applies confirmatory factor analysis to examine the reliability and discriminant validity of these alternatives PEU scales.


Economic Lessons Of The Kobe Earthquake, G. Horwich Jan 1997

Economic Lessons Of The Kobe Earthquake, G. Horwich

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

The earthquake that struck the Japanese port city of Kobe on January 17, 1995, was the most severe quake ever to strike a modern urban area. It has become the most studied, analyzed, and discussed natural disaster in history. What I propose to add to this dialogue is an economist's overview of what he saw in Kobe 19 months after the event and what he learned during the ensuing 6 months.


What Can We Learn From Bilateral Trade? Gravity And Beyond, Jon Haveman, David L. Hummels Jan 1997

What Can We Learn From Bilateral Trade? Gravity And Beyond, Jon Haveman, David L. Hummels

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

Much empirical international trade reserach requires a careful analysis of bilateral trade patterns. In this paper we examine a commonly used technique called the gravity equation. Though the use of the gravity equation on aggregate data is well-grounded in monopolistic competition trade theory, we show that central predictions necessary for its derivation can be rejected with simple tests on disaggregated data


Procompetitive Market Access, Marie Thursby, Kala Krisna, S. Roy Jan 1997

Procompetitive Market Access, Marie Thursby, Kala Krisna, S. Roy

Purdue CIBER Working Papers

The view that US businesses are being unfairly hurt by barriers to access in foreign markets has raised demands for market access requirements (MARs) from within US industry and government alike. We show that, contrary to the prevailing wisdom of the recent literature, MARs can be implemented in a procompetitive manner. The basic idea is that the requirement must be implemented in a way that provides the right incentives for increasing aggregate output or lowering prices.
