https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2023/03/staff-working-paper-2023-16/
How are regional cost shocks passed through into global prices? We investigate the role of short-run capacity constraints and show that they can induce stark non-linearities in the pass-through. We highlight this effect for the market for ammonia, a commodity produced largely from natural gas.2023-03-10T09:52:52+00:00enCost Pass-Through with Capacity Constraints and International Linkages2023-03-10Climate changeEconometric and statistical methodsInflation and pricesInternational topicsStaff Working Paper 2023-16https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/swp2023-16.pdfCost Pass-Through with Capacity Constraints and International LinkagesReinhard EllwangerHinnerk GnutzmannPiotr ŚpiewanowskiMarch 2023LL1L13L6L65QQ4Q40Q5Q54Firm-Specific Shocks and Aggregate Fluctuations
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2016/11/staff-working-paper-2016-51/
In order to understand what drives aggregate fluctuations, many macroeconomic models point to aggregate shocks and discount the contribution of firm-specific shocks. Recent research from other developed countries, however, has found that aggregate fluctuations are in part driven by idiosyncratic shocks to large firms.2016-11-21T07:38:15+00:00enFirm-Specific Shocks and Aggregate Fluctuations2016-11-21Business fluctuations and cyclesFirm dynamicsMarket structure and pricingStaff Working Paper 2016-51https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/swp2016-51.pdfFirm-Specific Shocks and Aggregate FluctuationsLeonid KarasikDanny LeungBen TomlinNovember 2016EE2E22E23E24E3LL6Building New Plants or Entering by Acquisition? Estimation of an Entry Model for the U.S. Cement Industry
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2011/01/working-paper-2011-1/
In many industries, firms usually have two choices when expanding into new markets: They can either build a new plant (greenfield entry) or they can acquire an existing incumbent. In the U.S. cement industry, the comparative advantage (e.g., TFP or size) of entrants versus incumbents and regulatory entry barriers are important factors that determine the means of expansion.2011-01-24T13:20:14+00:00enBuilding New Plants or Entering by Acquisition?

https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2010/10/working-paper-2010-25/
In this paper, we examine how the effect of movements in the real exchange rate on manufacturing plants depends on the plant's placement within the productivity distribution. Appreciations of the local currency expose domestic plants to more competition from abroad as export opportunities shrink and import competition intensifies.2010-10-21T14:02:43+00:00enThe Effect of Exchange Rate Movements on Heterogeneous Plants: A Quantile Regression Analysis2010-10-21Exchange ratesMarket structure and pricingProductivityWorking Paper 2010-25https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/wp10-25.pdfThe Effect of Exchange Rate Movements on Heterogeneous Plants: A Quantile Regression AnalysisBen TomlinLoretta FungOctober 2010DD2D21FF1LL1L16L6L60Investment, Private Information, and Social Learning: A Case Study of the Semiconductor Industry
