Spatial Spillover Effects of Agricultural Transport Costs in Peru
Land, 2021 The role of agricultural transport costs in core-periphery structures has habitually been ignored in New Economic Geography (NEG) models. This is due to the convention of treating the agricultural good as the numéraire, thus implying that agricultural ...

The Open Monopolistic Competition Models: Market Equilibrium and Social Optimality
Mathematics, 2023 We study the monopolistic competition model of Dixit–Stiglitz–Krugman with additive separable utility and transport costs of “iceberg types”. The production costs are not necessary linear.

Sustainability, 2022 This paper investigates the economic relationship between logistics performance and export competitiveness based on the iceberg transport cost model and conducts further empirical analysis according to China’s LPI. It finds that the higher the efficiency of logistics and transport, the lower the transportation costs coefficient per unit distance; when ...

Regional Agreements and Welfare in the South: When Scale Economies in Transport Matter [PDF]
This paper focuses on two issues that challenge the accepted pessimistic view that regional trade agreements (RTAs) between developing countries in welfare terms by taking into account scale economies in transport.

"Exaggerated Death of Distance: Revisiting Distance Effects on Regional Price Dispersions" [PDF]
This paper empirically establishes the significant roles of transport costs in price dispersions across regions. We identify and estimate the iceberg-type distance-elastic transport costs as a parameter of a structural model of cross-regional price ...

Transport cost and endogenous quality choice [PDF]
, 2010 This paper examines how the quality of exports depends on relative country size and its remoteness. Specific transportation cost is the key variable in our analysis as it gives rise to the Alchian-Allen effect.

Iceberg transport technologies in spatial competition. Hotelling reborn [PDF]
Transport costs in address models of differentiation are usually modeled as separable of the consumption commodity and with a parametric price. However, there are many sectors in an economy where such modeling is not satisfactory either because ...

Distorted trade barriers [PDF]
, 2011 Since firm heterogeneity has been introduced into international trade models, the importance of firm entry and exit (the extensive margin) has been highlighted.

Transport costs, distance, and time : evidence from the Japanese Census of Logistics [PDF]
Geographic distance is a standard proxy for transport costs under the simple assumption that freight fees increase monotonically over space. Using the Japanese Census of Logistics, this paper examines the extent to which transport distance and time ...
