Large-screen TVs have a higher unit value, on average,but there is a large dispersion of unit values across source countries and destinations. Richer countries tend to export large-screen TVs at a lower price relative to small-screen TVs, potentially because they have a comparative advantage in producing in quality. We also find that there is a downward sloping demand for quality, with countries facing a larger quality premium buying fewer large-screen TVs. This suggests that there is no simple quality-quantity trade (unlike in many recent trade models), and the demand for quality should be modeled separately.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTelevision salesHF CommerceHB Economic TheoryEconomics and EconometricsWorking paperhttps://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1786884https://www.bruegel.org/sites/default/files/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/efige_wp30_1703117.pdfKoren, M & Muraközy, B 2011 'The demand and supply of quality: a case study of televisions' EFIGE Working paper ; 30., Bruegel, Brussels. < https://www.bruegel.org/sites/default/files/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/efige_wp30_1703117.pdf >RIS: urn:9D466BCDB2E1FF29B7EC6D5F5E0522CERIS: 1786884ORCID: /0000-0003-4495-7560/work/177525701350273
