論文本論では，日本の都道府県経済とその対外関係を分析するにあたって有用と思われる分析視角として，財政を通じた都道府県間の所得再分配の指標としての移転収支，国際収支表に準じた域際収支表の作成，域際収支の決定要因を，北海道を例にとって紹介した。移転収支は経常移転と資本移転から構成され，都道府県間の所得再分配を包括的に把握できる。域際収支表は域外との取引を国際収支表に準じて記録するもので，域外との貿易，投資，所得移転の全体像を捉えるのに有用である。域際収支の決定要因については，域際収支表の各項目を政策などによって変化する外生的なものとそれを受けて変化する内生的なものとに分類し，簡単なマクロモデルを基に分析した。このような分析を通じて，域際収支の議論に散見される誤解をいくつか指摘することも行った。北海道を例にとると，北海道の財貨・サービス収支が赤字であるからといって，北海道の対外債務残高が増加しているわけではない。また，北海道は財貨・サービス収支の赤字を埋めるために財政を通じて所得再分配を受けているのではなく，むしろ所得再分配を受けることによって財貨・サービス収支の赤字は拡大している。さらに，北海道の財貨・サービス収支が赤字であるから道民１人当り所得が低くなるのではなく，所得の上昇のために財貨・サービス収支の改善を政策目標にするのは誤りである。This paper presents three viewpoints for regional economy, with an emphasis on current and capital transfers. First, income transfers offer us a good measure to gauge the amount of income redistribution through governments. Second, a regional balance of payments enables us to grasp the value of economic transactions between one region and the other.Third, on considering the determination of regional balance of payments, in order to understand the effect of fiscal policy on net exports of goods and services and financial account, it is essential to treat current and capital transfers as exogenous variables reflecting fiscal policy.

　View Summary

商学部創立50周年記念 = Commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the faculty50周年記念論文本論では，OECD 諸国間の2001年から2003年の直接・間接投資のデータを用いて，直接投資を通じて各国の持つ経営資源が外国に移された場合，どの程度投資国に収益をもたらすかを推計した。直接投資からの収益率を決める要素として，投資情報分析能力，基準利益率，経営資源優位性，そして配当変動率を考え，それぞれが投資収益率に与える効果を計算することで経営資源の収益率を抽出した。その結果，経営資源優位性については各国の値にかなり差があり，日本については2001年と2002年には分析対象国平均に近い値を記録しているが，2003年には急低下していることがわかった。

On the Conditions that Preclude the Existence of the Lerner Paradox and the Metzler Paradox

ENDOH MASAHIRO HAMADA KOICHI

Keio Economic Studies (Keio Economic Society, Keio University)  42 ( 1-2 ) 39 - 50 2006

Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work,  ISSN  0022-9709

　View Summary

Special issue in honor of Prpfessor Michihiro OhyamaThe Lerner paradox is the possibility that a tariff on an import good might worsen a country's terms of trade, and the Metzler paradox is the possibility that a tariff on an import good might reduce a country's import price. In a general equilibrium framework with multiple goods, this paper shows that the combination of the invertibility of the Slutsky matrix for the world economy and its similarity across countries will preclude both of the paradoxes. Also the combination of the gross-substitutes assumption for the world demand and a similarity assumption on the demand of an import country to the world will preclude the Lerner paradox. A modified similarity condition for the Slutsky matrix combined with the gross substitute for the world demand will preclude the Metzler paradox. A concept of non-surpassed diagonal is introduced to derive the result.

Characteristics of Commodities and International Trade: Two Hypotheses

ENDOH MASAHIRO

Keio Business Review (Society of Business and Commerce, Keio University)  43   23-41 - 41 2006

Research paper (bulletin of university, research institution), Single Work,  ISSN  0453-4557

　View Summary

There exists a hypothesis that proximity and common language/colonial ties are more important for differentiated products than for homogeneous products in forming price information and matching international buyers and sellers.The gravitymodel analysis, however, is not able to show strong evidence to support this hypothesis. In this paper, the author presents the result that machinery, transport equipment and miscellaneous manufactured articles,which are classified into differentiated products, have lost price information effect, which causes the hypothesis lack of empirical support.The degree of price information effect on trade of commodities depends not on their differentiation, but on their industrial origin.

Country Size, Geographical Closeness and the Choice of Partner Countries in Forming Preferential Trade Agreements

ENDOH MASAHIRO

Keio Business Review (Keio University)  41 ( 1 ) 1 - 21 2003

Research paper (scientific journal), Single Work,  ISSN  0453-4557

　View Summary

This paper investigates the choice of partner countries in forming PreferentialTrade Agreements (PTAs), analyzes two "syndromes"of regionalism, and shows theresults of multi-country computer simulation. The following main conclusions areobtained. First, countries that are geographically close are likely to form PTAs.Secondly, the greater the economic size of the home country, the stronger its"syndromes"are and the smaller the geographical size of the PTA is. Thirdly, largecountries prefer forming PTAs,while small countries prefer worldwide free trade,thatmeans PTAs have a malign impact on multilateral trade negotiations.

A Note on Energy Supply and Economic Growth: in Cases of Depletable Energy and Expendable Energy

Masahiro Endoh

Keio Business Review (Keio University)  38   17-25 - 25 2000

Research paper (scientific journal), Single Work,  ISSN  0453-4557

　View Summary

This paper shows that the use of expendable energy does not induce endogenous economic growth any more than the use of depletable energy. This result comes mainly from two assumptions: (1) that knowledge and equipment for producing expendable energy are accumulated by investment, and (2) that labour moves smoothly between two sectors reacting to the difference in wages. Policy implications obtained from this analysis are: (1) that the use of expendable energy cannot attain endogenous growth since the decrease of marginal productivity of energy will appear as a constraint, and (2) that social policy is indispensable to attain steady state.
