Notes: The US import price elasticity calculated from Cline (2005) is the weighted average (by US 2004 imports) of export price elasticity estimates for the 17 US partner countries. The US export price elasticities Calculatedfrom
Kee, Nicita, and Olarreaga (2004) are the weighted average (by US 2004 exports) of import price elasticity estimates for the 17 US partner countries (excluding Taiwan).
