Price discrimination and state trading: The case of US wheat
构建了一个国家贸易机构在价格和非价格维度实施出口价格歧视的模型，应用于美国商品信贷公司的小麦出口补贴，计算了不同补贴工具的国家特定歧视程度，发现其行为与模型一致。
This paper presents a model of a state trading agency exercising export price discrimination in price and non-price dimensions. The model is applied to the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) of the United States and the export policy instruments it employs to effect discrimination. Measures of the country-specific degree of discrimination are calculated for each subsidy instrument. The analysis demonstrates that the CCC employs price discrimination in subsidizing wheat exports and that the observed incidence of discrimination is consistent with the hypothesized model of a state trading agency.
