PREFACE Input-output modeling at IIASA has a relatively short but interesting history. It started in 1979 with the pioneering efforts of Clopper Almon, who visited IIASA from the University of Maryland to lay the foundations of cooperation with the INFORUM project. The primary goals of the research at IIASA were to further develop econometric input-output models, to link individual national models on the basis of the software developed by Almon's team, and to build a collaborative network of scientists in different National Member Organization (NMO) countries who would contribute these models to IIASA. These aims were successfully realized within a few years by the installation at IIASA of 18 national models (varying in size and complexity), the dissemination of the necessary software to numerous institutions, and the linkage of three national models (of France, Belgium, and the Federal Republic of Germany). The software package, called SLIMFORP, has been transferred to practically all NMOS and implemented on a variety of computers to help scientists in their economic research. All these devel- opments have demonstrated the usefulness of the initiative and a large network of scientists from NMO countries and elsewhere has been established. An important role in this input-output work has been played by the annual conferences of the IIASA-INFORUM "family", which have been held at IIASA since 1980. During these three-day meetings, scholars from different countries have presented their experience on input-output analysis and forecasting, mostly with- in or based on the INFORUM framework. Potential users and pro- spective collaborators with the INFORUM project have normally also been invited. Therefore the papers in this volume represent the latest state in input-output research at IIASA and elsewhere in the INFORUM network. Additional information can be found in other IIASA publications, for example the working and collaborative papers by Clopper Almon, Douglas Nyhus, Ulrike Sichra, and Maurizio Ciaschini, which are available qn request. Now IIASA is embarking on a new project entitled "Patterns of Economic Structural Change and Industrial Adjustment", in which the input-output modeling work (previously under the umbrella of the System and Decision Sciences research area) will play an important part. It is therefore important to select approaches from previous IIASA work and the ongoing research of our collab- orators on the INFORUM project that will contribute significantly to a better understanding of the deep structural changes currently affecting national economies. We sincerely hope that many of the scientists whose papers are included in this volume will collaborate fruitfully with the new IIASA project.

The papers have been divided into two groups. The first, on linkage of input-output models, also includes a few papers on models ready for linkage but not yet linked; the second group deals with the analysis and investigation of structural change, but also contains a description of recent developments in the INFORUM family of models. The first part of the volume opens with a contribution from Nyhus (USA) dealing with the linkage of seven national models

  • Introduction to Macroeconomics Lecture Notes
    Introduction to Macroeconomics Lecture Notes Robert M. Kunst March 2006 1 Macroeconomics Macroeconomics (Greek makro = ‘big’) describes and explains economic processes that concern aggregates. An aggregate is a multitude of economic subjects that share some common features. By contrast, microeconomics treats economic processes that concern individuals. Example: The decision of a firm to purchase a new office chair from com- pany X is not a macroeconomic problem. The reaction of Austrian house- holds to an increased rate of capital taxation is a macroeconomic problem. Why macroeconomics and not only microeconomics? The whole is more complex than the sum of independent parts. It is not possible to de- scribe an economy by forming models for all firms and persons and all their cross-effects. Macroeconomics investigates aggregate behavior by imposing simplifying assumptions (“assume there are many identical firms that pro- duce the same good”) but without abstracting from the essential features. These assumptions are used in order to build macroeconomic models.Typi- cally, such models have three aspects: the ‘story’, the mathematical model, and a graphical representation. Macroeconomics is ‘non-experimental’: like, e.g., history, macro- economics cannot conduct controlled scientific experiments (people would complain about such experiments, and with a good reason) and focuses on pure observation. Because historical episodes allow diverse interpretations, many conclusions of macroeconomics are not coercive. Classical motivation of macroeconomics: politicians should be ad- vised how to control the economy, such that specified targets can be met optimally. policy targets: traditionally, the ‘magical pentagon’ of good economic growth, stable prices, full employment, external equilibrium, just distribution 1 of income; according to the EMU criteria, focus on inflation (around 2%), public debt, and a balanced budget; according to Blanchard,focusonlow unemployment (around 5%), good economic growth, and inflation (0—3%).

  • Compilation of Production-Based GDP of Macao
    Compilation of Production-based Gross Domestic Product of Macao Compilation of Macao’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is in accordance to the concepts, definitions and classifications of System of National Accounts 1993 (SNA 1993), with considerations to the characteristics of the local economy. In Macao, quarterly and annual GDP at current prices and constant prices are compiled using the expenditure approach, while GDP measured under production approach is compiled only annually at current prices due to lac k of sufficient data. Therefore, expenditure-based GDP is the principal indicator used to measur e the economic growth of Macao. Macao’s annual production-based GDP at basic prices is compiled based on the recommendations of SNA 1993, which is the sum of Gross Value Added (GVA) of all economic activities at basic prices, adding taxes on products, less Financial Intermediation Services Indirectly Measured (FISIM). GVA at basic prices equals value of Gross Output (GO) at basic prices , less value of Intermediate Consumption (IC) at purchasers’ prices. Besides, GVA at producers’ prices (including some of taxes on product) is an important reference to Macao, this is because concession tax (part of taxes on product) collected from concessionaire of water supply, electricity supply, telec ommunications, public car parks, as well as operators of the gaming sector in Macao is deducted from the respective gross receipts or sales revenues, different from value added tax that is collected separately. Hence, concession tax is considered as part of the output generated from activities of the industry and should be included in GVA. As the leading industry of Macao, gaming sector generates enormous amount of tax revenues; however, inclusion of gaming tax in its output will bring in considerable change to both the gaming sector and structure of the entire economy.

While the decomposition proposed by Koopman, Wang and Wei (2014) is a first step in this direction, there are still three outstanding issues that need to be further addressed: (1) the nature of double counting in gross exports; (2) the calculation of the foreign value-added net of any double counting; and (3) the decomposition of gross exports at the industry level (the industry where exports take place). In this paper, we propose a new accounting framework that addresses these different issues and clarifies the definition of exports in inter-country input-output (ICIO) tables. It contributes to the literature: (i) by refining the definition of double-counted value-added in gross exports; (ii) by providing new expressions for the foreign value-added and double-counted terms; and (iii) by indicating how the new framework can be used to decompose exports at the industry level.

  • Std/Na(97)26 1 Use of Productivity Estimates In
    STD/NA(97)26 USE OF PRODUCTIVITY ESTIMATES IN THE UNITED KINGDOM OUTPUT MEASURE OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT Summary The United Kingdom compiles figures for quarterly output-based gross domestic product at constant prices. This paper outlines the construction of the series and describes the use of productivity estimates in those service industries where employment is used as a proxy for output. Introduction The United Kingdom compiles figures for quarterly output-based gross domestic product at constant prices. Conceptually, net output at constant prices should be calculated by double deflation, but this method is data intensive and not generally used in the UK. Instead, net output at constant prices is calculated as a base-weighted index, where the weights are net output by industry, derived from the 1990 input-output tables, and the indices are in general indicators of gross output, which are assumed to be reasonable proxies for net output over the short term. These procedures are in line with those discussed in SNA93 (16.68-70), where it is suggested that over the short run the potential bias involved in using single indicators may be negligible compared with the potential errors in double deflation estimates. Where data are not available for value added at current prices, it is recommended that an acceptable second best solution is given by base year value added, extrapolated either by deflating gross output at current prices by an appropriate price index or directly from quantity data. Where such indicators are not available, indicators of input, such as employment, are a third best procedure, but only appropriate for short-run estimates.

Input-Output Models for Impact Analysis: Suggestions for Practitioners Using RIMS II Multipliers Rebecca Bess and Zoë O. Ambargis Abstract: Input-output models, when applied correctly, can be powerful tools for estimating the economy-wide effects of an initial change in economic activity. To effectively use these models, analysts must collect detailed information about the project or program under study. Analysts also need to be aware of the assumptions and limitations of these models. In this paper, we will focus on these assumptions and on the information that is required to use regional input-output multipliers correctly. We focus specifically on multipliers generated by the Regional Input-Output Modeling System (RIMS II) developed by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. 1. Introduction This paper discusses the proper use of regional input-output (I-O) models. These models provide multipliers that can be used to estimate the economy-wide effects that an initial change in economic activity has on a regional economy.

  • Food Manufacturing Productivity and Its Economic Implications / TB-1905 Economic Research Service/USDA Summary
    Electronic Report from the Economic Research Service United States Department www.ers.usda.gov of Agriculture Technical Bulletin Food Manufacturing Productivity Number 1905 and Its Economic Implications October 2003 Kuo S. Huang Abstract The gross-output multifactor productivity index for U.S. food manufacturing grew 0.19 percent per year between 1975 and 1997. This productivity growth is low when compared with an estimate of 1.25 percent per year for the whole manufacturing sector. Low invest- ment in research and development (R&D) could be one reason. Although productivity has been relatively low, food manufacturing output has grown significantly at 1.88 percent over the last two decades. Indeed, the expansion of combined factor inputs provided signif- icant impetus to food manufacturing output. Food manufacturing is materials-intensive, and declining real producer prices of crude food and feedstuffs fueled the expansion of input utilization and drove down prices of processed foods paid by consumers. Keywords: Food manufacturing, multifactor productivity, labor productivity.

    Measuring Gross Output April 29, 2014 Introduction Beginning April 25th, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) has debuted GDP by industry measures quarterly estimates of gross domestic product (GDP) generated by each of the 22 industries identified in the economy, which were previously reported value added of final on an annual basis only. GDP by industry is a measure of value added of final products; gross output by products for each industry group. industry also includes intermediate inputs. In addition, the BEA began measuring gross output on a quarterly basis. Aggregate gross output of Gross output is the market value of goods and services produced by an all industries can count the industry. Its components include: commodity taxes, sales or receipts and same economic activity i other operating income, and inventory change. In other words, gross output multiple times. by industry is a measure of value added plus intermediate inputs. Gross output has the potential to be a powerful complementary tool to GDP, but gross output is not a substitution for GDP. GDP measures all economic Gross output has the activities once, but only once; aggregate gross output counts some economic potential to be a powerful activities multiple times. Confusing these two very distinctive measures of complementary tool to economic activity would misinform rather than enlighten policymakers and GDP in measuring the public on the breadth and scope of America’s dynamic economy. economic activity, but it The quarterly industry-level GDP data begins the first quarter of 2005 and should not be considered a spans through the latest release, the fourth quarter of 2013.

RAMIREZ The purpose of this paper is to integrate an input-output matrix in a national income determinationmacro- econometric model. The resulting composite model is used for technological change' simulating policies of the Mexican economy. Simulation multipliers are computed and compared for three sectors: agriculture. basic metal industries and transportation. One of the interesting results is that the agricultural (rov) multipliers are the highest ones leading to the conclusion that development efforts should givemore attention to agriculture. INTRODUCTION The present study deals with the linkage of an input-output table to a model of the Mexican economy. Input-output analysis adds a new dimension to models of economic systems since it focuses on the interrelations and flows that occur among sectors of the economy. This, to some extent, is obscured by the use of the national accounts system as a basis for model building.

  • Glossary of Input-Output Terms
    GLOSSARY: NATIONAL INCOME AND PRODUCT ACCOUNTS (Updated: November 2019) This glossary presents the definitions of terms that are associated with the U.S. national income and product accounts (NIPAs). The terms relate to the concepts, classifications, and accounting framework of the NIPAs, the general sources and methods used to prepare the NIPA estimates, and the line items that make up the seven summary NIPAs. For the most part, the NIPA definitions are consistent with those used in general economic accounting, such as the System of National Accounts (SNA); where appropriate, explanations of differences are provided. This glossary is intended to be a living reference that will be updated and expanded to reflect changes and additions as they are incorporated into the NIPA Handbook. Term Definition Accrual accounting Method of accounting that records the sale of goods or assets when ownership is transferred, the sale of services when they are provided, the generation of output when goods or services are produced, the consumption of intermediate goods and services when they are used, and the compensation of employees when it is earned.
