Essays on trade preferences of the USA and exports of developing countriesCooke, Edgar F. A. January 2014 (has links)
The African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) and the Caribbean Basin Trade Protection Act (CBTPA) of the USA are trade preference programmes offering reduced tariffs to African countries. We investigate the impact of the preferences on the exports of the recipients in this thesis. Using annual data on mirror exports, macroeconomic, social, cultural and religious variables, we evaluate the impact of the preferences in three different ways—(1) difference-in-differences, (2) quantile and (3) matching estimators. As part of our review of the empirical evidence, we conduct a meta-analysis to summarise the quantitative AGOA literature. This is augmented with a meta-regression to investigate the presence of publication bias. In chapter 3, the first of the three empirical chapters, the question asked is, “has there been an observed increase in the exports of AGOA and CBTPA recipients to the USA compared to their exports to the rest of the world?” The identification of the impact consists of modelling the selection in exporting that occurs and accounting for the zero trade occurring at the HS-6 digit level of disaggregation. One result is that, the impact of the preference varies with the level of product aggregation. The two remaining chapters focus on the AGOA preference and is identified due to the exogenous provision of the preference. Chapter 4 adopts a matching approach while chapter 5 is based on a quantile regression. The matching estimates providing the mean impacts are negative for exports to the USA compared to the counter-factual. In Chapter 5, we show that, the impact of the preference on the recipients is unequal—oil exporters are the largest gainers. We decompose the impact by using the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition found in Machado and Mata (2005) for quantile regressions. We find that, the gains to AGOA recipients are confined to the top half of the export distribution—implying that the gains from AGOA are unequal and thus heterogeneous in their impact on the recipients.

The Impact of Tax and Tariff on the Location of Multinational EnterpriseWang, Ying-fang 06 July 2011 (has links)
The aim of the paper is to discuss how the enterprise chooses its optimal location of the affiliate when its exports to the foreign market are subject to a high tariff rate. We want to know whether the enterprise chooses a third country, which is subject to a lower tariff, and sets an affiliate in there. Because the model contains the multinational enterprise, we take the transfer pricing into consideration. Assume that the factory will not be established on the foreign market, we show that the enterprise would like to move the factory to the third country then export to the market. Furthermore, when the headquarter moves to the third country, it will induce the decrease of the tax revenue of the host country. Then, we try to discuss how the governments¡¦ tax policy affects the tax revenue. Assume the enterprise moves its factory to the third country where selects the double taxation. We show that when the government chooses a looser tax policy, then it will have more opportunity to receive more tax revenue.

Acquisitions and Foreign CompetitionSrinivasan, Shweta January 2015 (has links)
I provide evidence on the impact of foreign competition on firms' propensities to engage in mergers and acquisitions. Using import tariff reductions as an exogenous shock that increases foreign industry competition, I find that affected firms are more likely to make acquisitions following a tariff reduction. Cross-sectional tests show that this association is more pronounced for single segment firms, firms that innovate less, or that are more capital intensive, which suggests this association is stronger for firms which stand to gain more from an acquisition. Moreover, the positive relationship between acquisition likelihood and tariff cuts is less pronounced for financially constrained firms and during times of low capital liquidity, which implies that it is easier for firms with greater access to external capital to respond to increases in foreign competition by making acquisitions. Finally, I find that acquisitions made subsequent to tariff decreases are associated with positive wealth gains for bidder shareholders, indicating that these acquisitions are viewed favorably by market participants.
