<b>RESUMEN</b><br> <br> Existen aportaciones recientes en las que el análisis input-output clásico se viene desarrollando con matrices de origen y destino y no con matrices de coeficientes técnicos. Sin embargo, esto no siempre es posible. Con el objetivo de construir dichas matrices de coeficientes...

This paper fruitfully combines two complementary theories: performance measurement and input-output analysis. Our point of departure is the theory of the consumer, who maximizes utility subject to a budget constraint. His well-being can be measured by the change in the consumption bundle, valued...

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...

Productivity growth is the main vehicle to increase the standard of living. This book explains the relationships between technological change, efficiency, productivity growth and performance. The emphasis is on the interplay between industries in modern economies. The book provides a broad yet...
