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. We show that these differences are … primarily driven by the cost of producing and distributing gasoline, which varies with states' access to oil and gasoline …
