- Hellmanzik, Christiane & Schmitz, Martin (2015): Virtual proximity and audiovisual services trade
Moreover, in line with Hanson and Xiang (2011), our analysis indicates that in the audiovisual services sector, global fixed export costs dominate bilateral fixed export costs for most countries in our sample.
RePEc:eee:eecrev:v:77:y:2015:i:c:p:82-101 Save to MyIDEAS - Carl Gaigné & Bruno Larue & Wendkouni Jean-Baptiste Zongo (2021): On export duration puzzles
We investigate two puzzles in the export duration literature. The first puzzle has to do with the frequent entries and exits of firms in export markets, which are at odds with the large fixed export costs in such markets. We introduce convex production technologies in a trade model to show how variable marginal costs create direct linkages between export markets. As fixed export costs vary across destinations, more productive firms need not necessarily export to more destinations. Cost convexity implies that the probability of supplying a given export market is adversely affected by positive export shocks in other markets.

RePEc:ags:inrasl:319672 Save to MyIDEAS - JdD Tena & G. Meloni & D. Paolini (2014): American Beauty: trade flows and export costs of US movies
Copyright industries face global fixed export costs, in terms of cultural and geographic distance together with formal trade barriers. Adjustment to these costs may occur along both the intensive and the extensive margin. We investigate this issue using a microeconomic approach that considers a hedonic model of revenues for US movie exports to evaluate - aggregation bias; simultaneity in the observation of imported movies and their revenues; and reliable estimations for country clusters.
RePEc:cns:cnscwp:201410 Save to MyIDEAS - Bouët, Antoine & Vaubourg, Anne-Gaël (2015): Financial constraints and international trade with endogenous mode of competition:
We propose an extension of Neary and Tharakan’s (2012) model, in which firms resort to external funders to finance fixed export costs and investments in production capacities. We assume that sectors differ in financial constraint and that the cost of capital increases with the level of financial constraint. We first show that less financially vulnerable sectors are more likely to export. On the one hand, a high level of financial health allows firms to finance fixed export costs at a lower interest rate. ... By increasing the cost of external finance, a financial shock increases the financial cost of exporting and reduces firms’ production capacities and exports (intensive margin).
RePEc:fpr:ifprid:1438 Save to MyIDEAS - Maria Bas & Pamela Bombarda & Sébastien Jean & Gianluca Orefice (2021): Firms’ exports, volatility and skills: Evidence from France
[Exportations, volatilité et compétences des entreprises : l'exemple de la France]
This paper studies the effects of globalization on the employment growth volatility by investigating the relationship between firms' export intensity and labor demand volatility across skills. Based on detailed firm-level administrative French data for the period 1996–2007, we show that firms with intense export activity exhibit lower volatility of labor demand for skilled, compared to unskilled workers. Both the theoretical and empirical analysis point to the importance of skill-intensive fixed export costs in explaining this effect. ... Our findings show that a higher level of export intensity increases the employment growth volatility for unskilled relative to skilled workers.
RePEc:hal:cesptp:hal-03403887 Save to MyIDEAS - Okubo, Toshihiro (2009): Trade liberalisation and agglomeration with firm heterogeneity: Forward and backward linkages
This paper studies the impact of trade cost reductions on the geographical concentration of manufacturing in the presence of intermediate input linkages, firm heterogeneity and fixed export costs. The presence of non-exporting firms in this Melitz-like model hampers full agglomeration by weakening the forward and backward linkages and fortifying market-crowding effect. ... Also, trade liberalisation produces divergent welfare effects with the periphery losing and the core gaining; even costless trade fails to equalise welfare in the core and periphery due to non-exported intermediate inputs.

RePEc:cor:louvrp:3046 Save to MyIDEAS - Jacques Potin (2009): The selection effect of two-way trade in the Melitz model: an alternative approach
To illustrate this, we decompose the total effect of trade in two partial effects: a domesticprofit-reducing effect due to foreign market penetration by the most productive firms; an average-profitreducing effect due to the payment of the fixed export costs.
