This study examines the general equilibrium effects of different export promotion policies on imports and production of importables and exportables. Unlike other studies, land as a factor input in the production function has been included. Thus, this article develops a three-factor production...

The authors employ the Cooley-Prescott adaptive model to examine for functional misspecification in three commonly used exchange rate expectation models. They also test for heterogeneity among forecasts. The authors find no serious misspecification problem but some heterogeneity in expectations....

This paper examines the J-curve hypothesis for US agricultural and manufactured goods, using the Shiller lag model. The results support the J-curve effect for agricultural goods, but not for manufactured goods. These findings explain why many studies in the literature fail to support the J-curve...
