We propose a new instrument for estimating the price elasticity of gasoline demand that exploits systematic differences … across U.S. states in the pass-through of oil price shocks to retail gasoline prices. These differences, which are primarily … driven by variation in the cost of producing and distributing gasoline, create cross-sectional dispersion in gasoline price …
