Using input-output data from Symmetric Input-Output Tables for the year 2010 and relevant price models, this paper provides empirical estimations of medium- and long-run effects of wage and currency devaluations on international price competitiveness and income distribution for two 'PIIGS...

We develop a novel linear equilibrium model with an Armington flavor. We provide (1) proof of the solvability of the model and of the existence and non-negativity of the equilibrium solution and of the newly derived multiplier matrix; we also show (2) that the standard Leontief multiplier matrix...

We use the World Input-Output Database (WIOD) combined with regional sectoral employment data to estimate the potential regional employment effects of interna-tional trade barriers. We study the case of a no-deal Brexit in which imports to the United Kingdom (UK) from the European Union (EU)...

This article using the principal components analysis identifies key industries and groups them into particular clusters. The data come from the US benchmark input-output tables of the years 2002, 2007, 2012 and the most recently published input-output table of the year 2019. We observe some...

This paper develops a simple method to consistently break down world input-output tables to regional input-output tables. They are used to estimate Cohesion Policy-induced demand spillovers in the EU, covering the years 2007-2018. Results indicate that Cohesion spillovers from less developed...

This paper seeks the elaboration and application of a quantitative measurement for technology in Brazilian manufacturing during 2000-2016. The results have showed stability of the proposed technological indexes and an intensive technological development of the Brazilian manufacturing during...

This paper evaluates the contribution of allocative efficiency to the aggregate productivity growth in Canada and the US. In particular, we are interested in explaining two puzzling facts: 1) the slowdown in productivity growth during the 1970s and the 2000s in the US, and 2) the widening...

The unprecedented lockdown measures implemented by many countries in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic have created a need for tools to assess their economic costs. For this purpose, we present a novel dynamic input-output modelling framework which we apply to an estimation of the economic...

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...
