Estimating Distribution Costs with the Eaton–Kortum Model

Abstract: Economists have mainly relied on input-output tables to calculate domestic trade costs for a relatively small number of developed countries. In this work we use an augmented Eaton-Kortum model to estimate the distribution costs of a group of consumption goods for 60 countries, which include both developing and developed countries. Our results show that developing countries are subject to much higher distribution costs, and that reductions in the distribution costs can result in large welfare gains.

“…Por exemplo, Alvarez e Lucas Júnior (2007) investigaram, por meio do modelo de Eaton e Kortum, os determinantes da distribuição dos volumes do comércio (tais como tamanho, tarifas e distância) para mais de 60 economias e obtiveram resul-tados consistentes com a literatura gravitacional. Yang (2015) estimou o custo de comércio para 60 países em desenvolvimento utilizando o modelo de Eaton e Kortum, concluindo que os países em desenvolvimento estão sujeitos à distribuição de custos muito maiores e que as reduções nos custos podem resultar em grandes ganhos de comércio e de bem-estar social.…”
