4 1 Derivaion of Graviy equaions The firs order condiion for Z i is : P i X i 1 η Z ik 1 η = τ ik Q k (1) This can be rearranged o obain demand: τ ik Q k Z ik = ( ) τ ik Q k 1 η P i P i X i (2) Subsiuing demand ino he resource consrain for he counry-k good, one obains: Q k Y k = N j=1 ( 1 τ jk Q k Z jk = Q k ) η 1 N j=1 ( ) η 1 P j P j τ jk X j (3) Rearranging his expression, i can be used o subsiue in for Q k(1 η) in (2), yielding: where IM ik EXP i OUT k = ( Π k ) 1 η = N ( τ ik Q k Z ik P (P i X) ( i ) = Π k i Q k Y k τ ik j=1 which is exacly wha is repored in he ex.

Le N be he full number of counries in he world, and le Ñ be he number of counries in he sample. Then, reorder counries such ha 1o Ñ are in he sample. I hen consruc he following. If i k, hen: I M ik = Ñ IM ik j=1,j i IM ij IM i Ñ h=1 1 Ñ l=1 I M ik 5

6 while if i = k, hen: I M ii = [ ] OUT i EX i 1 Ñ h=1 Ñ l=1 I M ik where IM i is oal impors ino counry i a dae, measured using naional accouns daa, and EX i is oal expors from counry i a dae, also measured using naional accouns daa. Then: OUT i = EXP i = OUT i Ñ j=1 OUT j EXP i Ñ j=1 OUT j In his way, all variables are expressed as shares of in-sample oupu or in-sample absorpion. Noe ha he sample as a whole runs only a small rade balance wih he res of he world (he maximum surplus is 0.6% of in-sample GDP while he maximum defici is 0.4% of insample GDP), so in-sample oupu and in-sample absorpion are very close. The variables wih ilde are hen used in he srucural esimaion. 4 More deails on srucural esimaion Mechanically, I ake logs of IM ik EXP i = ( ) τ ik 1 η ( ) Q k 1 η N j=1 ( τ ij ) 1 η ( ) Q j 1 η (8) add an error erm, reformulae he variables and esimae: subjec o he resricion ha: ( ) ( IM ik N ln = d ik γ EXP i + α k ln exp ( ) ) d ij γ + α j + ε ik (9) j=1 OUT i = N j=1 exp (d ji γ + α) i N k=1 exp ( )EXP j d jk γ + α k (10) 6

7 by esimaing penalized non-linear leas squares. For each period, I choose he vecors γ and α o minimize: N i=1 N j=1 ω ij ( ε ij ) 2 + χ N k=1 ζ k ( υ k ) 2 (11) where OUT i = N j=1 exp (d ji γ + α) i N k=1 exp ( )EXP j d jk γ + α k + υ i and ζ k = OUT k. I se χ very large - sufficienly large ha replacing χ by 10χ resuls in only very small changes in he parameer vecor. Compuaionally, his is much more sraighforward han direcly imposing (10) wih equaliy. This procedure is repeaed for each cross-secion independenly. Noice ha nohing ies down he absolue level of prices, so I se Q N = 1 for all o esimae he N 1-vecor of relaive prices. 5 Algorihm for recovering fied values from srucural esimaes Given he fied values for γ and α, and he chosen values of η and ρ, he variables necessary for he counerfacual are recovered as follows. Trade coss are given by ˆτ ij = [ exp ( d ijˆγ )] 1 1 η while esimaes of (relaive) oupu prices are given by: ˆQ i = [ ( )] 1 1 η exp ˆψi Oupu prices and rade coss ogeher yield he esimae of (relaive) consumpion prices using: ˆP i = [ N j=1 ] 1 ( ) 1 η 1 η ˆτ ij ˆQ j Esimaed consumpion prices and daa on he value of expendiure on consumpion are 7

8 used o recover an esimae of (relaive) real consumpion: Ĉ i = µi EXP i ˆP i where µ i is he hisorical share of expendiure devoed o privae consumpion. An esimae of he amoun of (relaive) real oupu devoed o consumpion is hen consruced using real demand for each inermediae and he resource consrain for each inermediae: Ŷ ic = N j=1 τ ji ( ˆτ ji ˆP j ˆQ i ) η Ĉ j I will also be convenien o have an esimae of oal real oupu, which can be calculaed as: Ŷ i = N j=1 τ ji ( ˆτ ji ˆP j ˆQ i ) η EXP j ˆP j = OUT i ˆQ i (he las equaliy is because (10) is imposed on he esimaes wih equaliy). Finally, o obain an esimae of he vecor λ, I need o make an assumpion abou he form of u ( ) and u c ( ). I assume ha uiliy is CRRA wih risk aversion ρ, so: ˆλ i = ˆP i (Ĉi L i ) ρ where L i is populaion. Noe ha his can be performed for each period independenly. The ˆλ i can hen be re-expressed such ha N i=1 ˆλ i = 1. This will impose a differen normalizaion on prices, hough relaive prices and he implied relaive real allocaion will remain unchanged. Calculaing counerfacual ne expors and rade does no require any comparison of he absolue levels of real oupu and real consumpion across periods. However calculaing welfare does require his. Since he model is esimaed on each cross-secion independenly, he esimaes do no ie down he relaive size of he real pie across periods, only he division of ha pie wihin periods. Comparing he pie across periods requires daa on real oupu or real consumpion for a numeraire counry. I pick he US as he numeraire, and use real GDP as he series I benchmark o. This is implemened as follows. Having { consruced ˆQ, ˆP } { }, Ĉ, Ŷ C, Ŷ as described above, I hen consruc ˆQ, ˆP, Ĉ, Ŷ C, Ŷ = 8

9 { α ˆQ, α ˆP, Ĉ α, Ŷ C α, Ŷ α } wih α = ŶUS,/Y US,. 6 Algorihm for finding soluion o planner s problem { } Given L, ˆτ, Ŷ C, λ ; η, ρ, for any vecor of goods prices Q, we can calculae he vecor of ( ) excess demands for individual goods, h Q; L, ˆτ, Ŷ C, λ ; η, ρ. Saring wih some Q 0, le Q 1 = Q 0 ( ( ( ) )) 1 + h Q 0 ; L, ˆτ, Ŷ C, λ ; η, ρ /Ŷ This is ieraed unil convergence, which is achieved rapidly. Given his vecor of prices, i is possible o calculae he equilibrium values of all relevan variables. 7 Discouned Pareo weighs and compensaing variaion As an alernaive o he baseline, on can calculae he opimal risk sharing Pareo weighs as he discouned weighed average of he esimaed relaive weighs wihin he risk-sharing group. For he exercise ha imposes opimal risk sharing in he OECD alone, he weigh of he OECD as a whole relaive o ha of he res of he world is held fixed a is esimaed level jus as before. The weighs for OECD counries are calculaed as (remember N i=1 ˆλ i = 1): λ i,oecd (1) = 2000 =1970 β 1970ˆλi j OECD 2000 =1970 β 1970ˆλ j [ j OECD The ime-series of Pareo weighs for non-oecd counries are also fixed a heir esimaed levels, i.e. λ i,noecd (1) = ˆλ i,noecd. For opimal risk sharing for he full sample of counries, each counry s counerfacual weigh is calculaed as: λ i (2) = The corresponding measure of welfare is: 2000 =1970 β 1970ˆλi N j= =1970 β 1970ˆλ j ˆλ j ] (12) (13) 9

10 W i 2 = T =1 β 1 (Ci /N i ) 1 ρ 1 ρ and he corresponding measure of compensaing variaion is δ 2 such ha: (14) T =1 β 1 ( ) δ 2 Ĉ i 1 ρ /L i 1 ρ = T =1 β 1 ( ) 1 ρ Ci /L i 1 ρ This is implemened wih β =
