| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Most of the existing studies on international trade assume that there are no trade costs or that the trade costs are characterized as the iceberg types of transportation costs, which take the form of shrinkage in transit so that a fraction of shipped goods actually arrives. In this study, taking into account the reality that firms in the transportation industries convey the goods, I explore (i) what sort of factors warrant compatibility between the iceberg-cost model and the model with transportation industries, (ii) how the trade patterns are determined, in particular, how technology of production and transportation is related in determination of them, and (iii) which country exports or imports the transportation services, that is, how the transportation patterns are determined.
