This paper analyzes the measurement of effective protective rates when there is joint production. It shows that special attention is required when tradables are jointly produced with non-tradables, and especially when there are significant changes in the prices of non-tradables. Input-output...

This paper shows that countercyclical factors should be expected for most exports, and submits the hypothesis that these effects are more...

A more general method for preparing commodity-by-commodity input-output tables under the commodity technology assumption is presented for the case when there are produced and non-produced by-products, originating in principal and in secondary production. Existing methods of the same family are...

This paper distinguishes between by-products of the activity and those associated with changes in the demand for another jointly-produced output. It attempts to define when one or more jointly-produced outputs would be by-products of the activity and others would be produced at the margin. The...

This major work brings together authors with experience of both academic and operational project work to focus on issues such as the shadow exchange rate, the shadow wage, the discount rate and assessment of poverty impact and risk, as well as problems relating to specific sectors covering...

Different methods for measuring rent (natural-resource) content have been proposed in studies of the primary-input content of trade. In this paper, these methods are applied to obtain different industry-level estimates of the primary-input contents and the primary-input intensities of...

This paper analyzes the measurement of effective protective rates when there is joint production. It shows that special attention is required when tradables are jointly produced with non‐tradables, and especially when there are significant changes in the prices of non‐tradables....
