study of the variables which explain real exchange rate fluctuations and real exchange rate deviation from its long-run equilibrium path, indicates that these variables have negative effects on the supply of agricultural products, for export. therefore,it seems that any attempt on stabilizing real exchang rate and bringing it closer to its equilibrium rate can be favorable in the expansion of e...

This study examined the factors that influence agricultural production and exports with specific reference to the natural rubber in India. Secondary data was used for this study. Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) technique was used in analyzing the relevant data. The OLS findings revealed that natural rubber production is significantly (p<0.05) by export of natural rubber (β=0.05), stock (β=0.21) an...

With the ongoing globalization an increase in international deliveries of goods goes hand in hand. All goods produced within a customs union and leave this territory, must be transferred to an export procedure associated with a required customs clearance.

Recent work in judgment and decision-making has shown that a good's price can have irrational effects on people's preferences. People tend to prefer goods that cost more money and assume that such expensive goods will be more effective, even in cases where the price of the good is itself arbitrary. Although much work has documented the existence of these pricing effects, unfortunately little wo...

Digital goods can be reproduced without cost. Thus a price of zero would be economically efficient in terms of eliminating deadweight loss. Unfortunately, zero revenues would also eliminate the economic incentives for creating such goods in the first place. We develop a novel mechanism which solves this dilemma by decoupling the price of digital goods from the payments to innovators while maint...

Most lack the industrial capacity for diversified manufactured goods to support trade within regional markets. Sub-Saharan African countries appear to have relatively few goods to trade with ea...

Using Health and Retirement Study (HRS) data, we create a new, up-todate panel dataset to investigate the impact of house price movements on the non-durable goods consumption of older households. We find that older homeowners respond asymmetrically when experiencing house price gains and house price losses. More specifically, they increase total non-durable goods expenditure when house prices a...

Advances in technology enable sellers to price discriminate based upon a customer’s revealed purchasing intentions. E-tailers can track items already in a “shopping cart” and item level RFID tags enable retailers to do the same in bricks and mortar stores. As retailers attempt to leverage the information made available from these technologies, it is important to understand how this new visibili...
