Abstract
A cross-section of 248 Census industries was used in the nonlinear regression estimation of a model which included profits, trade, and foreign direct investment. An index of openness/seclusion was specified in the profit equation. Trade differentials were calculated based on open and closed profit equilibria for the food manufacturing industries.
