  Efficiency and Export Earnings Implications of Two-Tier Quota Allocation Rules
 
 
Title: Efficiency and Export Earnings Implications of Two-Tier Quota Allocation Rules
Author: Bark, Taeho
De Melo, Jaime
Appeared in: International economic journal
Paging: Volume 3 (1989) nr. 3 pages 31-42
Year: 1989
Contents: Countries facing VERs often adopt a two-tier allocation system for export licenses to the restricted market: (1) a “basic” allocation based on export shares to the restricted market: (2) and an “open” allocation based on export shares to the nonrestricted market. This paper shows that this two-tier allocation system which increases exports to the nonrestricted market beyond levels with a single quota allocation system, has an efficiency cost as it results in extra salws at below marginal cost. The paper also shows that the recent history of VER negotiations provides a rationale for such a policy. Finally, the paper suggests that the recent increase in anti-dumping cased may be partly associated with the adoption of two-tier quota allocation systems. [420]
