The objective of this paper is to extend the model of linear multipliers to represent the circular flow in an open economy. Specifically, we incorporate the links between the domestic economy and the foreign sector in the calculation of generalised multipliers. Additionally, we present a...

Social accounting matrices (SAM) are a numerical scheme of the circular flow. The SAM-based multipliers can be used to determine the changes in the relative income of the economic agents. In this paper we investigate the process of income distribution in the Catalan Economy, using the linear...

The analysis of gas emissions by an input-output subsystem approach provides detailed insights into pollution generation in an economy by revealing the channels by which the environmental burdens are caused and transmitted throughout the production system. In this paper we propose a...

The aim of this work is to investigate the direct and indirect effects of an environmental tax on Spanish products, based on their CO₂ emission intensities. For this purpose, we apply environmental input-output (EIO) and price models. The short-term price effects of the introduction of tax on...

The objective of this paper is to show the influence of the primary inputs prices on the production prices in the Catalan Economy. The methodology we use is the input-output framework, which has permitted us to reflect the changes in the prices of domestic processing sectors under changes in...

Nowadays, cultural activities are recognised as having a positive impact on regional and local development. In this paper, we analyse the economic impact of a new museum (the Gaudí Centre) on the regional economy by quantifying the amount of new productive income and new employment it has...

We compute demand and supply multipliers in order to compare them. These multipliers are computed by using a CGE model. The analysis is applied to two regional economies, Catalonia and Extremadura, so we can compare the results of both economies. We build a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE)...

The aim of this paper is to analyze the economic impact of alternative policies implemented on the energy activities of the Catalan production system. Specifically, we analyze the effects of a tax on intermediate energy uses, a reduction in intermediate energy demand, and a tax on intermediate...
