This paper studies the relationships between digitalisation, trade costs, quality upgrading and flows, using an extended version of a gravity model. Based on information from various sources data, we estimate these sequentially for sample 18 manufacturing 14 service sectors in 40 countries over period 2000–2014. Using input–output tables World Input–Output Database, define original measure digi...

The paper highlights Quality related Costs and how the costs can be extracted from an industry’s manufacturing and financial records. The level of automation of industrial manufacturing systems was measured and interfaced with quality-related cost. The significance of the relationship between the two important industrial parameters was evaluated. The results indicate that quality related costs ...
