  • Price Relationships along the Value Chain: An Analysis of the Hake Market in France

    Creator:
    Hartmann, Jessica, Jaffry, Shabbar, and Asche, Frank
    Abstract:
    In this paper we use cointegration analysis and the Law of One Price to test for proportionality between hake prices at different stages along the value chain in the French hake market. Cointegration analysis is an appropriate means of testing for price proportionality when price series are non-stationary, as was...

    LaFrance, J. T., Beatty, T. K. M., Pope, R. D., and Agnew, G. K.
    Abstract:
    A method for nesting, estimating and testing for the rank and functional form of the income terms in an incomplete system of aggregable and integrable demand equations is derived. Information theory is applied to the problem of inferring the U.S. income distribution using annual time series data on quintile and...

    Creator:
    Lee, Hwang-Jaw
    Abstract:
    This study provides estimates of a complete demand elasticities matrix for meat, poultry, fishery fish, aquaculture fish, as well as shrimp and shell fish in Taiwan, using the linear approximate almost ideal demand system. Estimation is based on aggregate annual consumption data complied from Taiwan Food Balance Sheets during 1970-1998....

  • Interdependent Preferences for Seafood Consumption

    Creator:
    Millán, Joaquín A.
    Abstract:
    This paper considers interdependence in seafood consumption exploiting data on consumer expenditures in Spain, using dominance models. Interdependence is modeled by making parameters in both the participation and the consumption equations dependent upon current consumption in the reference group of a particular consumer. The estimates of a parsimonious model using...

  • On the Construction of Price Indexes

    Creator:
    Primont, Diane F.
    Abstract:
    This paper discusses some important issues in constructing price indexes. The issues relate to the choice of an index number formula. Which is a “good” index number formula for aggregating prices? A variety of alternative index number formulae are explored based on the economic approach and the axiomatic (test) approach....

  • Japanese Fish Demand and Price Linkage with Foreign Markets

    Creator:
    Tada, Minoru
    Abstract:
    Japan has about 10% and 15% share for the consumption and trade of marine products respectively, and the trend has significant impacts on world markets. Thus the purpose of this article is to estimate the income elasticity of the demand, that includes all kinds of fish usage such as eating...

  • Structural Breaks in the European and US Market for Salmon

    Creator:
    Vassdal, Terje and Sirnes, Espen
    Abstract:
    This study investigates a possible structural break in the relationship between the price of Norwegian salmon exported to the EU and prices of Chilean salmon exported to the US. A structural break is expected in the spring/summer 1997 because restrictions on price and quantum on Norwegian salmon was introduced at...
