A method for calculating export supply and import demand elasticities

Abstract

Frequently in applied work, researchers need to utilize values for price elasticities of import demand and export supply. Unfortunately, econometric estimates of these elasticities are limited, perhaps due to the difficulties inherent in estimating them. This paper uses a methodology for estimating price elasticities of import demand and export supply for 87 countries without using econometrics directly.
