In this paper we analyze the relationship between gravity variables and f.o.b. export unit values using Hungarian firm-product-destination data. By taking firm-product level selection into account we show that export unit values increase with distance even for particular firm-product level selection and constant markups. We also show that unit values are positively related to GDP/capita and that there is a weak negative relationship between unit values and market size.
