Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich VWL - Außenhandelstheorie, Außenhandelspolitik, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Fluctuation in export earnings is a great concern to policy makers and can be caused by many factors. This study has analyzed the causes of export instability from 1980/81 to 2012/13 based on secondary data. Using Ordinary Least Square technique the empirical result shows that there is positive relationship between export instability index and three independent variables: commodity concentration index, geographic concentration index and openness index. Furthermore, it again establishes the negative relationship between export instability index and four independent variables: consumption ratio, food ratio, instability index of real agricultural GDP and instability index of real nonagricultural GDP having coefficients of -2.922, -7.633, -5.169, and -0.474 respectively.
