heal.abstract	This paper presents a methodology to decompose changes in foreign trade figures with a view to identifying and quantifying the effects of major contributing factors such as prices, physical quantity, quantity mix (structural change) and product quality. The methodology is applied to data on Greek exports and imports of manufactured food, beverage and tobacco products, 1980-1993. Issues of measurement and interpretation are discussed and conclusions drawn.	en
