By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Business & Finance Week -- A new study on Economics - Economic Geography is now available. According to news reporting originating from Miyagi, Japan, by VerticalNews correspondents, research stated, “This article investigates the impact of trade liberalization on trade patterns, firm markups, and firm locations in a two-factor monopolistic competition model that features variable elasticity of substitution by a general additively separable utility. We find that, depending on the relative export hurdles, either direction of one-way trade may occur when trade opens up.”
Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Tohoku University, “Its direction determines the responses of firm-level markups and various home market effects to falling trade costs. Our results show that some important findings in the literature are robust only with particular classes of preferences.”
According to the news editors, the research concluded: “We provide a possible rationale for some well-known conflicting empirical facts.”
