Time-varying Armington elasticity and country-of-origin bias: from the dynamic perspective of the Japanese demand for beef imports

Kawashima, Shigekazu; Sari, Deffi Ayu Puspito - In: Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics 54 (2010) 1

Elasticities of substitution, often called Armington elasticities, reflect incomplete substitutability because of perceived product characteristics. This study divides the determinants of the Japanese demand for beef imports into two factors: (i) substitution elasticity and (ii)...

Is the Armington Elasticity Really Constant across Importers?

Yilmazkuday, Hakan - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009

This paper shows that the Armington elasticity, which refers to both the elasticity of substitution across goods and ….e., the Armington elasticity) and the elasticity of demand with respect to the source price. Under additive trade costs, it is … elasticity of demand with respect to the source price rather than a constant Armington elasticity under additive trade costs. In …

Quantifying non-tariff measures in international agricultural trade: a tariff equivalent of technical barriers to trade on African horticultural exports to the European markets

Nimenya, Nicodeme; Henry de Frahan, Bruno; Ndimira, … - 2008

Fresh food and agricultural products from sub-Saharan Africa meet few tariff barriers because of preferentialmarket access granted to ACP countries through Lomé andCotonou Act. However, non-tariff barriers are still seriousimpediments to trade. This paper focuses more specifically ontechnical...

Armington elasticities and tariff regime: An application to European Union rice imports

Huchet-Bourdon, Marilyne; Pishbahar, Esmaeil - Laboratoire Études et Recherches Économiques … - 2008

Most of the European Union’s (EU) import sources for rice are in developing countries and the least-developed countries (LDCs). The EU has moreover made a commitment to allow duty-free and quota-free access to rice imports originating in the LDCs from September 2009 onward. The purpose of this...

Methodological shortcomings in estimating Armington elasticities

Cassoni, Adriana; Flores, Manuel - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2008

CGEMs are one of the most potentially powerful tools for simulating policies. However, a major restriction they face is them needing a huge number of parameters that are not always available, and even at times impossible to obtain. When CGEMs are applied to trade, Armington elasticities of...
