The Economic Costs and Benefits of UK Defence Exports.Chalmers, Malcolm G., Davies, N., Hartley, K., Wilkinson, C. 25 November 2009 (has links)
No / This study examines the economic costs and benefits to the UK of a 50 per cent cut in UK defence exports from the average level of 1998 and 1999. The net impact on the government budget is estimated to he an ongoing loss of between around L40 million and L100 million a year: around 0.2-0.4 per cent of the total UK defence budget. In addition, there is estimated to be a one-off net adjustment cost, spread over five years, of between L0.9 billion and L1.4 billion. A further more speculative adjustment cost (estimated at around L1.1billion) could result if the loss of income associated with the `terms-of-trade' effect were also included. In terms of the wider debate about defence about defence exports, the results of this study suggest first that the economic effects of the reduction in defence exports are relatively small and largely one-off, and secondly that the balance of arguments about UK defence exports should be determined mainly by non-economic factors.

Trade flows and comparative advantage for IranKalbasi, Hassan January 1995 (has links)
This thesis has three objectives. First, the thesis evaluates the alternative indirect methods of measuring or identifying Iran's comparative advantage through revealed trade performance. Secondly, it seeks to identify Iran's export potential by considering similar and comparable economies. Thirdly, it explores the potential volume and direction of fran's trade flows by using a gravity model. The thesis primarily provides a review and an evaluation of the theory and empirical robustness of the law of comparative advantage. The application of indirect methods proves to be useful in identifying Iran's activities of comparative advantage. Alternative indices of revealed trade performance are used to measure Iran's revealed comparative advantage (RCA) for non-oil exports. The results based on these three measurements are found to be consistent, and also show that Iran has export characteristics which reflect the endowments of this natural-resourceabundant developing country. Iran's exports tend to lie in natural-resource-intensive goods, mostly agricultural products, and generally labour-intensive products. Relatively weak export performance is identified in capital-intensive and humancapital- intensive products. Upon determining the commodities in which Iran has a revealed comparative advantage, the thesis investigates how Iran's export composition may be expected to evolve in future. Export similarity indices and the revealed export performance of comparator countries are used to identify the scope for intra- and inter-industry export diversification. Finally, a gravity model is estimated in order to compare the actual and potential volume and direction of Iran's trade. The results show that Iran's current actual trade is larger than that predicted by the model. The current 'over-trade' figures arise from fran's oil exports to a few industrial countries. Actual trade with the developing countries as a whole is by contrast lower than predicted.

Barriers to exports faced by manufacturing SME’s in South AfricaVan der Walt, Jaco 27 March 2010 (has links)
This paper is intended as an investigation into what prevents South African manufacturing SME’s from contributing more to South Africa’s export performance. To this end a literature review was conducted to, among others, identify barriers to exports faced by manufacturing SME’s contained in existing literature. A number of core groupings were identified. Empirical research was then conducted by telephonically interviewing 499 manufacturing SME’s to gain insight into prevalence of exporters, interested nonexporters and not interested non-exporters. Exporting respondents were asked what their biggest export facilitating factor was, and what the one thing was they felt each of the government and third party facilitators could do to assist in the export process. Non-exporting respondents were further asked for reasons for not exporting (if they wanted to export) as well as reasons for not wanting to export, as the case may be. Strong demographic differences emerged between exporters, interested nonexporters and not interested non-exporters. A number of factors emerged as to barriers and facilitators to exports and how the government and third party facilitators might assist in the export process. These insights could be used to tailor export promotion initiatives. / Dissertation (MBA)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) / unrestricted
