Structural change in the Brazilian economy in the 2000s
Messa, Alexandre - 2012
This paper investigates the sources of structural change in the Brazilian economy in the 2000s. On that purpose, it uses the input-output structural decomposition analysis and introduces a method to correct the influence of prices on the time behavior of the technical coefficients, making them...

The problem of negatives generated by the commodity technology model in input-output analysis: A review of the solutions
ten Raa, Thijs; Rueda-Cantuche, José - In: Journal of Economic Structures 2 (2013), pp. 1-14
Many economic models (e.g., computable general equilibrium models, econometric input-output models) revolve around a matrix of technical coefficients. However, these matrices can be estimated only once every 5 years as long as they are calculated from input-output tables and these are only...

Indirect effects - a formal definition and degrees of dependency as an alternative to technical coefficients
Coppens, François - 2005
The use of input-output analysis for the computation of secondary effects of final demand changes is well-known. These 'final demand effects' can be calculated using technical coefficients and the inverse of the Leontief matrix. This paper offers an alternative to the use of technical...
