This paper provides a comprehensive discussion on different, interconnected methods of using the system of national accounts to measure the relevance of a country's wellness sector to its overall economy. Procedures are discussed for using input-output analysis to derive the production and...

This article employs two alternative approaches based on input-output tables to re-evaluate key Australian industries and their interconnections. The first approach utilizes traditional linkages, while the second approach employs machine learning methods. Data come from the OECD database for...

The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we provide a detailed social accounting matrix (SAM), which incorporates the income and financial flows into the standard input-output matrix, for the Canadian economy for 2004. Second, we use the SAM to assess the strength of the real-financial...

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...

Natural and anthropogenic disasters frequently affect both the supply and demand side of an economy. A striking recent example is the COVID-19 pandemic which has created severe industry-specific disruptions to economic output in most countries. Since firms are embedded in production networks,...

Considering households in inter-industry models is an important issue for building a realistic macroeconomic model. This is why we examine three attempts to close the Leontief input-output model, the classical approach (Type I and Type II multipliers), ten Raa model, and Klein model. Then we...

This paper presents, in Portuguese, an overview of the input-output theory, originally developed by Wassily Leontief. The first and second chapters present the background of the theory of input-output, placing the work of Leontief in a historical view. Chapter 3 presents the basic theory of...

The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, the authors provide a detailed social accounting matrix (SAM), which incorporates the income and financial flows into the standard input-output matrix, for the Canadian economy for 2004. Second, they use the SAM to assess the strength of the...

Input-output analysis is widely used in different scenarios, because it is easy to implement and interpret. Nevertheless, it is important to note that input-output coefficients should be built with caution, especially in the case of secondary production, as this may imply negative coefficients....
