Abstract:
This paper analyzes the measurement of effective protective rates when there is joint production. It shows that special attention is required when tradables are jointly produced with non-tradables, and especially when there are significant changes in the prices of non-tradables. Input-output formulas for the Balassa and Corden methods are provided.
