Indirect Transportation Cost in the border crossing process: The United States–Mexico trade

Using a Social Accounting Matrix as database, a Computable General Equilibrium model is implemented in order to estimate the Indirect Transportations Costs (ITC) present in the border crossing for the U.S.–Mexico bilateral trade. Here, an “iceberg–type” transportation function is assumed to determin...

Aquí se asume un esquema de transporte tipo "iceberg" para determinar los costos a afrontar, resultantes del proceso de cruce fronterizo por los puntos de entrada existentes entre ambos países. El período estudiado incluye datos anuales desde 1995 hasta 2009, permitiendo analizar las tendencias de estos costos a la luz de la liberalización comercial experimentada. Los resultados muestran que los CIT han experimentado una disminución de 12% durante este período. 2015-12-18 2021-06-03T03:37:58Z 2021-06-03T03:37:58Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566 10.21670/ref.2016.33.a07 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6865 spa eng https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/969 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/970 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/971 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/972 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/973 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/974 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/1632 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/566/1633 Derechos de autor 2015 Estudios Fronterizos application/pdf application/pdf text/html text/html application/epub+zip application/epub+zip text/xml text/xml Mexico-United States border, 1995-2009 Frontera entre Estados Unidos y México Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Estudios Fronterizos Revista; Vol. 17 No. 33 (2016); 169-196 Estudios Fronterizos; Vol. 17 Núm. 33 (2016); 169-196 2395-9134 0187-6961
