8 What is value-added trade? Classic example: the iphone. China assembles iphones and exports them to the U.S. China imports components from various sources: Japan, Korea, Germany, the U.S., etc. Gross value of export is accredited to China. But China does not create all of the value. Repatriate the contribution of each source in the global supply chain to the final value. Similar for much of the trade between the U.S. and Mexico, specifically in autos and parts.

9 Measuring trade flows in global supply chains: value-added approach A U.S. consumer purchases an iphone for $5: How is the value-added distributed? Recording the transaction in gross terms. ROW Sale to consumer $5 USA Memory and audio $11 $18 Assembled product $162 CHN Processor, camera, etc. Implied gross trade deficit b/w U.S. and China: $169.

14 Value-added trade figures restate U.S. bilateral trade linkages U.S. tends to concentrate more on upstream production in the global supply chain. China and Mexico specialize more on downstream production. The U.S. bilateral trade deficits with China and Mexico are smaller when measured in terms of value added. Paints a new picture when thinking about currency wars. A devaluation makes imports more expensive. A country with small value added will gain very little from devaluing.

18 De-industrialization: A historical perspective The decline in manufacturing, or industrial production, is part of a process known as structural transformation. The share of employment in industrial sectors has been declining since the 196s: Why? Technology: advanced in productivity in manufacturing processes. Demand: Increased demand for services (health care, education, etc.) Trade: Increased specialization in global supply chains.

30 The decline in industrial activity Part of the economic growth process. Improved technology reduces the resources needed for production. Higher income and longer life-expectancy increases the demand for services. Globalization allows for specialization in the global supply chain. The U.S. specializes more in service-intensive, upstream activities.
