abstract = {This paper examines whether exporting activity matters for firm?s
price cost margins. The recent literature on exporting and productivity
shows that exporters on average are more efficient than nonexporters.
If that is the case we may also expect them to have different
mark-ups. We investigate this issue using company level data for
UK manufacturing industries. The measurement of mark-ups follows
the recent approach presented by Roeger (1995). Our results show
that, on average, exporters have higher mark-ups than non-exporters.
We also distinguish sectors into homogeneous and differentiated goods
producing. This distinction shows that we only find higher mark-ups
for exporters in differentiated goods sectors, not in homogeneous sectors.},
