regional integration and dynamic adjustments evidence from Gross National Product functions for canada and the united states
The North American Journal of Economics and Finance, 2012Co-Authors: Guy Chapda Nana, Bruno Larue, Jeanphilippe GervaisAbstract:We estimate a translog Gross National Product function and test for endogenously determined structural change allowing for anticipated and lagged responses to regional trade agreements. We found that Canada embarked on a long transition path prior to the implementation of the Canada-U.S. Trade Agreement, a result reminiscent of Magee's (2008) results concerning RTAs’ trade creation effects. In contrast, the United States experienced an abrupt structural change a year after the North American Free Trade Agreement took effect. This reflects that smaller economies benefitting from larger changes in terms of trade are confronted to more complex adjustment processes than larger economies.

2010Co-Authors: Bruno Larue, Jeanphilippe GervaisAbstract:We propose an empirical trade model to test for structural change and dynamic effects induced by free trade agreements for the Canadian and US economies. We estimated a translog Gross National Product (GNP) function along with output and factor shares and tested for structural change (abrupt or gradual) which is endogenously determined by the data. After this, we estimated Stolper-Samuelson (SS) and Rybcynski (R) elasticities, and assessed the stability of their sign and magnitude link to the structural change. The null hypothesis of no structural change is soundly rejected for both countries. For Canada, we found gradual structural change that started prior to the implementation of CUSTA and lasted for several years. In the US case, we found evidence of an abrupt structural change occurring in 1995, a year after NAFTA came into force. More interestingly, several SS and R elasticities experienced sign reversals and a magnification effect over the different sub-periods, implying that the categorization of goods in terms of friends or enemies of labour and capital changed during the transition.

We found that Canada embarked on a long transition path prior to the implementation of the Canada-US Trade Agreement, a result reminiscent of Magee's (2008) results about RTAs' trade creation effects. In contrast, the United States experienced an abrupt structural change a year after the North American Free Trade Agreement took effect. This reflects that smaller economies benefitting from greater changes in terms of trade have much more adjusting to do than larger ones. We also found that Stolper-Samuelson and Rybcynski elasticities experienced sign reversals and a magnification effect, implying that the categorization of goods in terms of friends or enemies of labour and capital changed during the transition. The fact that exports have become a friend of labour should soften the opposition of labour unions toward RTAs.

estimation of current quarter Gross National Product by pooling preliminary labor market data
Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, 1990Co-Authors: Steven N BraunAbstract:Two methods of using labor-market data as indicators of contemporaneous Gross National Product (GNP) are developed. The establishment survey data are used by inverting a partial-adjustment equation for hours. A second GNP forecast can be extracted from the household survey by using Okun's law. Using preliminary rather than final data adds about .2 to .4 percentage point to the expected value of the root mean squared errors and changes the weights that the pooling procedure assigns to the two forecasts. The use of preliminary rather than final data results in a procedure that assigns more importance to the Okun's-law forecast.

dengue endemic and its impact on the Gross National Product of brazilian s economy
Acta Tropica, 2018Co-Authors: Everlam Elias Montibeler, Daniel Ribeiro De OliveiraAbstract:Abstract In history disease has caused social and economic damage. Dengue is an illness typically found in the tropics that has affected more and more people. In Brazil, according to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), in 2013 at least 12.9% of the population (25.8 million) reported already having had dengue in their life. So, how wide are the economic impacts that dengue’s contagion has on the Gross National Product? Using Leontief’s method, it became possible to estimate the direct and indirect impact on the workforce and output by one country. Workforce absenteeism reduced the National Productiveness and welfare state where we found maximum inoperability of 0.027% and a minimum of 0.002%. This paper develops a methodology for estimation of the impact dengue has incurred in each sector of an economy; designing a ranking with sectors that have been more affected and forecasting the propagation of the endemic throughout a region. This research measures the impact of dengue on economy, the result was that the total loss of the Brazilian economy in 2013 was around BRL 1,023,174,876.83; the importance of 0.02% of the Gross Domestic Product.
