Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
International relative prices across industrialized countries show large and systematic
deviations from relative purchasing power parity. We embed a model of
imperfect competition and variable markups in a quantitative model of international
trade. We find that when our model is parameterized to match salient
features of the data on international trade and market structure in the United
States, it can reproduce deviations from relative purchasing power parity similar
to those observed in the data because firms choose to price-to-market. We
then examine how pricing-to-market depends on the presence of international
trade costs and various features of market structure. (JEL F12, F14, F31)
