We discuss bootstrap confidence intervals for short-run and long-run demand and supply elasticities for imports and exports. We use Koshal, Shukla and Koirla’s (1992) simultaneous equation demand and supply model for Indian exports based on 1960-1986 data. Although the long run price elasticity of supply is large, (about 25) and significant, the asymptotic as well as bootstrap confidence interv...

In the 1980’s and 1990’s many African countries liberalised their trade policy, although since the mid 1990s there are countries that did not alter tariffs. This allows us to analyse the effects of trade liberalisation on the change in imports using Difference-inDifferences techniques that allow us to evaluate the impact on imports of trade liberalisation at the general and sector-specific leve...

The dependence on type of food imports is determined by consumer demand. This study intends to do an exploratory study on the current conditions of Singaporean food consumption and expenditures with implications on Malaysia as an important agricultura...
