| Resumo: | Using domestic and export price data and a framework of markup over cost, pricing behavior of U.S. and Japanese manufacturers is compared. Major export industries in Japan have higher productivity growth and lower pass-through coefficients than American exporters, who tend to price to domestic cost. Japanese firms seem to price discriminate between domestic, and export markets. Other related issues, including nonlinearity in pass-through and sectoral differences in productivity, are also examined. |
