4 In Chaper 1 of Par 1 we have presened a bref overvew of he Ineremporal General Equlbrum Model (IGEM) of he U.S. Economy. In hs chaper we descrbe he model n much greaer deal. The defnng characersc of a general equlbrum model s ha prces are deermned ogeher wh quanes hrough he neracons beween supply and demand. The producon secor s cenral o he supply sde of he model, whle he household secor forms he core of he demand sde. The model s compleed by mare-clearng condons ha deermne supples and demands for all commodes along wh he correspondng prces. Ineremporal equlbrum requres ha mare-clearng condons are sasfed for each commody a each pon of me. In addon, he mares are lned by nvesmens n capal goods and asse prces. Asse prcng mpars forward-loong dynamcs o IGEM, snce he prce of an asse s equal he dscouned value of he prces of capal servces over he asse s fuure lfeme. Capal servces are generaed by socs of asses accumulaed hrough pas nvesmens, so ha capal accumulaon provdes bacward-loong dynamcs for he model. A dsngushng feaure of IGEM s ha parameers of he behavoral equaons are esmaed economercally, raher han calbraed from esmaes aen from he leraure. We oulne esmaon of he demand sde of he model n Chaper 2 and he supply sde n Chaper 3. The demand sde ncludes he household secor, nvesmen demand, and demand for expors. The supply sde ncludes producon sub-models for 35 ndvdual ndusres and he demand for mpors. In descrbng he model we use smplfed noaon o avod a needless prolferaon of symbols. A complee ls of he 2000 equaons of he model s gven n Appendx A. Secon A.8 of hs Appendx provdes a glossary of all he symbols used. We recall ha Fgure 1 n he overvew chaper n Par 1 llusraes he flow of goods and facor servces among he four man secors of he economy producon, household, governmen, and res of he world. The flows of paymens among hese secors deermne he expendure paerns for he economy as a whole, ncludng consumpon, nvesmen, governmen, expors, and mpors. 1-2

5 1.1. Producon We focus aenon on mare-based polces, such as energy and envronmenal axes and radable perms. Envronmenal and energy axes nser ax wedges beween supply and demand prces and generae governmen revenue. The supply and demand for radable perms can be modeled along wh demands and supples for commodes. The coss assocaed wh mare-based polces are deermned hrough he prce responses o changes n polcy. The ey o analyzng he economc mpacs of energy and envronmenal polcy s he subsuably among producve npus, especally energy npus, n response o prce changes nduced by polcy. Whle producon paerns reflec subsuably among npus n response o prce changes, paerns of producon also depend on changes n echnology. In he long run he maeral well beng of he populaon depends on he growh of producvy. In addon, he relave demands for npus may be alered by based echncal change. For example, energy use may declne n nensy due o energy-savng changes n echnology, as well as subsuon away from hgher-prced energy. A complee characerzaon of producon requres boh subsuon and echncal change. Snce he rends ha underle changes n he paerns of producon are que complex, he specfcaon of models of producon suable for he analyss of energy and envronmenal polcy requres economerc mehods. Esmaes are no avalable n he leraure for he parameers ha descrbe subsuably and echncal change for all he ndusral secors ha comprse he U.S. economy. An alernave approach would be o adop assumed parameer values, such as elasces of subsuon equal o zero, as n npu-oupu analyss. However, he vas scale of energy conservaon snce he energy crses of he 1970 s has made he fxed coeffcens assumpon of npu-oupu models oally mplausble. We subdvde he busness secor no he 35 ndusres lsed n Table The governmen and household secors also used energy bu are excluded from he busness secor. Fve of he ndusres are energy producers Coal Mnng (ndusry 3), Ol and Gas Mnng (4), Peroleum Refnng (16), Elecrc Ules (30), and Gas Ules (31). We have chosen he classfcaon of he non-energy ndusres o dsngush among 1-3

6 secors ha dffer n he nensy of ulzaon of dfferen npus, especally energy, and exhb dfferen paerns of echncal change. The oupu of he producon secor s dvded among 35 commodes, each he prmary produc of one of he 35 ndusres. For example, seel s a prmary produc of he Prmary Meals ndusry, whle broerage servces are ncluded n he Fnance, Insurance, and Real Esae ndusry. Many ndusres produce secondary producs as well, for example, Peroleum Refnng produces commodes ha are he prmary oupus of he Chemcals ndusry. The model perms on producon of hs nd for all secors and all commodes. We model on producon along wh subsuon and echncal change for each ndusry. The parameers of our producon model are esmaed economercally from a hsorcal daa base coverng he perod The daa base s descrbed n Appendces B, C, and D, and ncludes a me seres of npu-oupu ables n curren and consan prces, as well as daa on he prces and quanes of capal and labor servces. 2 These daa comprse he ndusry-level producon accoun of he new archecure for he U.S. naonal accouns developed by Jorgenson (2009) and Jorgenson and Landefeld (2006, 2009). The npu-oupu ables conss of use and mae marces for each year. The use marx gves he npus used by each ndusry nermedae npus suppled by oher ndusres, noncompeng mpors, capal servces and labor servces. Ths marx also gves commody use by each caegory of fnal demand consumpon, nvesmen, governmen, expors, and mpors. The use marx s llusraed n Fgure 1.1. The rows of hs able correspond o commodes, whle he columns correspond o ndusres. Each enry n he able s he amoun of a gven commody used by a parcular ndusry. The sum of all enres n a row s equal o he oal demand for he commody, whle he sum of all enres n a column s he value of all he npus used n a gven ndusry. The mae marx descrbes an essenal par of he echnology of he U.S. economy. The rows of he mae marx correspond o ndusres, whle he columns 1 See also Table 1.1 n Par 1. 2 The mehodology and daa sources are presened n much greaer deal by Jorgenson, Ho, and Sroh (2005). 1-4

7 correspond o commodes. Each enry n he able s he amoun of a commody suppled or made by a gven ndusry. The domesc supply of he commody s he sum of all he enres n he correspondng column, whle he sum of all he enres n a row represens he value of he commodes produced by a gven ndusry. In shor, he ner-ndusry accouns of he sysem of U.S. naonal accouns are crcal componens of he hsorcal daa base for IGEM. The ner-ndusry accouns n curren and consan prces are dscussed n deal n Appendx B and Chaper 4 of Jorgenson, Ho, and Sroh (2005). The use marx ncludes values of capal and labor npus. Le he ner-ndusry flows, hese values are dvded no prces and quanes. The value of capal servces consss of all propery-ype ncome profs and oher operang surplus, deprecaon, and axes on propery and propery-ype ncome. The prce of capal servces consss of he prce of he correspondng asse, mulpled by an annualzaon facor ha we denoe he cos of capal. The cos of capal consss of he rae of reurn, he rae of deprecaon, less capal gans or plus capal losses, all adused for axes. The prce of capal servces and he cos of capal are dscussed n much greaer deal n Appendx D, n Jorgenson and Yun (2001), and n Chaper 5 of Jorgenson, Ho, and Sroh (2005). The quany of capal servces s he annual flow from a gven ype of asse. The asses ncluded n our hsorcal daa base are plan, equpmen, nvenores, and land. Plan and equpmen are sub-dvded no dealed caegores. For example, equpmen ncludes dfferen ypes of equpmen, rangng from moor vehcles and consrucon equpmen o compuers and sofware. We consruc prces and quanes of capal servces for each ndusral secor by aggregang prces and quanes of capal servces o oban a prce and a quany ndex of capal servces for each secor. Each ype of capal soc s weghed by he renal prce of capal servces, raher han he asse prce used n aggregang dfferen ypes of asses o oban capal socs. Smlarly, he value of labor servces ncludes all labor-ype ncome wages and salares, labor ncome from self-employmen, supplemens such as conrbuons o socal nsurance, and axes such as payroll axes. The quany of labor npu for each demographc caegory of labor npu s hours wored. We consruc a prce and a quany ndex of labor servces by aggregang over he prces and quanes of labor servces 1-5

8 from he dfferen demographc groups employed n each secor. These range from young worers wh only secondary educaon o maure worers wh advanced degrees. The prce and quany of labor servces are descrbed n more deal n Appendx C and Chaper 6 of Jorgenson, Ho, and Sroh (2005). Our mehods for aggregang over dealed caegores of capal and labor servces are an essenal feaure of our hsorcal daa se. Arhmec aggregaes conssng of smple sums of hours wored or asse quanes would no capure he subsuon possbles whn each aggregae. For example, a smple sum of compuers and sofware wh ndusral buldngs would fal o reflec he mpac on capal npu of a shf n composon oward nformaon echnology equpmen and sofware. Smlarly, a smple sum of hours wored over college-educaed and non-college worers would no reveal he mpac on labor npu of ncreases n educaonal aanmen of he U.S. wor force Noaon To descrbe our submodel for producer behavor we begn wh some noaon.

9 1.1.2 Top er producon funcon wh echncal change The producon funcon represens oupu from capal servces, labor servces, and nermedae npus. Oupu also depends on he level of echnology, so ha for ndusry : (1.1) QI = f ( KD, LD, QP1, QP2,... QPm, ), (=1,2,...,35) Ths form of he producon funcon s nracable as sands. We assume ha he producon funcon s separable n energy and maerals npus, so ha oupu a he frs sage of he producon model depends on quanes of energy npu and npu of nonenergy maerals, as well as npus of capal and labor servces: QI = f( KD, LD, E, M, ); (1.2) E = E( QP...); M = M ( QP,...) 3 1 In he second sage of he producon model he energy and non-energy npus depend on he componens of each of he aggregaes. For example, energy npu depends on npus of coal, crude ol, refned peroleum producs, naural gas, and elecrcy. These are prmary oupus of Coal Mnng, Ol and Gas Mnng, Peroleum Refnng, Elecrc Ules, and Gas Ules. Smlarly, non-energy npu depends on all he non-energy commodes lsed n Table 1.1. Ths ncludes maerals such as prmary and fabrcaed meals and servces such as fnancal servces. We assume consan reurns o scale and compeve mares, so ha he producon funcon (1.1) s homogeneous of degree one and he value of oupu s equal o he sum of he values of all npus: (1.3) POQI = PKDKD + PLDLD + PEE + PMM P E = PS QP + PS QP PS QP E P M = PS QP + PS QP PS QP M NCI, NCI, In order o characerze subsuon and echncal change we fnd more convenen o wor wh he prce funcon, raher han he producon funcon (1.1) 3. 3 The prce funcon conans he same nformaon abou echnology as he producon funcon. For furher deal, see Jorgenson (1986). 1-7

10 The prce funcon expresses he prce of oupu as a funcon of he npu prces and echnology, so ha for ndusry : PO = p( PKD, PLD, P, P, ). E M We have chosen he ranslog form of he prce funcon, so ha subsuably can be characerzed n a flexble manner and changes n echnology can be represened by laen varables hrough he Kalman fler, as n Jn and Jorgenson (2009): 1 p (1.4) ln PO = α + α ln p + β ln p ln p + ln p f + f p 0 2, p,, p ={PKD,PLD,P E,P M } α, β and α 0 are parameers ha are separaely esmaed for each ndusry, and we have dropped he ndusry subscrp for smplcy. The vecor of laen varables p p p p p ξ = (1, f, f, f, f, Δ f )' K L E M s generaed by a frs-order vecor auoregressve scheme: (1.5) ξ = Fξ 1 + v. The producon sub-model (1.4) and (1.5) acheves consderable flexbly n he represenaon of subsuon and echncal change. An mporan advanage of hs model s ha generaes equaons for he npu shares ha are lnear n he logarhms of he prces and he laen varables. Dfferenang equaon (1.4) wh respec o he logarhms of he prces, we oban equaons for he shares of npus. For example, f we dfferenae wh respec o he prce of capal servces, we oban he share of capal npu: PKDKD p (1.6) vk = = αk + βk ln P + fk. PO QI The parameers { β } are share elasces, gvng he change n he share of he h npu n he value of oupu wh respec o a proporonal change n he prce of he h npu. These parameers represen he degree of subsuably among he capal (K), labor (L), energy (E), and non-energy (M) npus. If he share elascy s posve, he value share ncreases wh a change n he prce of he npu, whle f he share elascy s negave, he share decreases wh a change n he prce. A share elascy equal o zero 1-8

11 mples ha he value share s consan, as n a lnear-logarhmc or Cobb-Douglas specfcaon of he echnology. The prce funcon s homogeneous of degree one, so ha a doublng of npu prces resuls n a doublng of he oupu prce. Ths mples ha he row and column sums of he marx of share elasces mus be equal o zero: (1.7) β = 0 for each ; β = 0 for each. Symmery of he prce effecs mples ha he marx of share elasces s symmerc. Monooncy and concavy of he prce funcon are dscussed n Chaper 3. The level of echnology evolve accordng o equaon (1.5). The laen varable f, ogeher wh he bases of echncal change { f p }, p echnology. The frs dfference of he level of echnology aes he form: p p p p p p (1.8) Δ f = Fp1 + FpK fk, 1 + FpL fl, 1 + FpE fe, 1 + FpM fm, 1+ FppΔ f 1+ vp f p represens he level of A more dealed descrpon of he producon sub-model, ncludng he prce funcon, s presened n Chaper 3. Here we descrbe a few of he ey feaures of hs model. The laen varables { f p } descrbe he bases of echncal change. A decrease n one of hese laen varables mples ha he npu share decreases as echnology changes. For example, f he energy share declnes, holdng prces of all npus consan, he bas wh respec o energy s negave and we say ha echncal change s energy-savng. Smlarly, a posve bas mples ha echncal change s energy-usng. Noe ha whle he parameers descrbng subsuon are consan, reflecng responses o varyng prce changes, he bases of echncal change are may vary from me o me, snce hsorcal paerns nvolve boh energy-usng and energy-savng echncal change Lower er producon funcons for nermedae npus In modelng producer behavor n Secon we have nroduced mul-sage allocaon n order o avod an nracable specfcaon of he producon funcon (1.1). In he lower ers of he model energy and non-energy maerals npus are allocaed o he ndvdual commodes. Repeang he second sage from (1.2): (1.9) E E QP3 QP4 QP16 QP30 QP31 M M QP1 QPNCI = (,,,, ); = (,... ). 1-9

12 To llusrae he elemens of he er srucure we consder he prce funcon for energy npu: (1.10) ln P = α + α ln P + β ln P ln P + f ln P P, 1 P, P, node = E P, E 0 2 energy, energy P { PS, PS, PS, PS, PS } PE, whle he share equaons are: (1.11) PS QP v P f, 3 3, ln P E node = = = α + β E + 3 PE E energy for coal mnng, he frs componen, and so on, for componens correspondng o crude peroleum, refned peroleum producs, elecrcy, and naural gas. The componens of he non-energy maerals (M) npu nclude he oher hry commodes n Table 1.1, n addon o noncompeng mpors, a commody no produced by any domesc ndusry. Ths s denoed X NCI n Fgure 1.1. We model he demand for ndvdual commodes whn he non-energy maerals aggregae for each ndusry by means of a herarchcal er srucure of ranslog prce funcons. The prce funcons for he sub-ers (1.10) dffer from he prce funcon (1.4), snce here s no laen varable represenng he level of echnology. Ths reflecs he fac ha he prce of energy s an ndex number consruced from he prces of he ndvdual componens, whle he prce of oupu s measured separaely from he prces of capal, labor, energy, and non-energy maerals npus. The prce of oupu could fall, relave o he npu prces, as producvy rses. As before, he parameers { β } are share elasces represenng he degree of subsuably among he fve ypes of energy. The laen varables of he Kalman fler { change. For example, an ncrease n he laen varable f30 f node } represen he bases of echncal node= E mples ha he elecrcy share of oal energy npu s ncreasng, so ha echncal change s elecrcy-usng, whle a decrease n hs laen varable mples ha echncal changes n elecrcysavng. The laen varables are generaed by a vecor auoregresson, as n (1.5). The long ls of commodes ncluded among he non-energy maerals npus requres ha he sub-models of hese npus mus be arranged n a herarchcal fashon. The er srucure for producer behavor n each ndusry s gven n Table 1.2. The non- 1-10

Each of hese sub-aggregaes n urn s a funcon of sub-groups, and so on, unl all he 31 commodes are ncluded. Each node o he er srucure employs a prce funcon le equaon (1.10) Relaon beween commodes and ndusres, and oupu axes. Producon or sales axes are proporonal o he prce of oupu. These axes are ncluded for all 35 secors of he producon model and nroduce wedges beween he prces faced by sellers and buyers of he correspondng commodes. We have noed above ha each ndusry maes a prmary commody and many ndusres mae secondary producs ha are he prmary oupus of oher ndusres. Denong he buyer s prce of he oupu of ndusry by full (1.12) PI = (1 + ) PO, The value of ndusry s oupu s VT and value of commody by, PC, QC and QI PI, we have: = PI QI.

We assume ha he producon funcon for each commody s a lnear logarhmc or Cobb- Douglas aggregae of he oupus from he varous ndusres. The weghs are he base year shares.

On average households n warmer regons have larger elecrcy blls for coolng, elderly persons drve less, and households wh chldren drve more. To capure hese dfferences we subdvde he household secor no demographc groups. We rea each household as a consumng un, ha s, a un wh preferences over commodes and lesure. Our household model has hree sages. A he frs sage lfeme ncome s allocaed beween consumpon and savngs. Consumpon consss of commodes and lesure and we refer o hs as full consumpon. In he second sage full consumpon s allocaed o lesure and hree commody groups nondurables, capal servces, and servces. In he hrd sage he hree commody groups are allocaed o he 36 commodes, ncludng he fve ypes of energy.

Purchases of consumer durables such as auomobles are reaed as consumpon expendures n he PCE.

For example, he demand for consumer nondurables s:: 1 H H H (1.30) wnd, = ( αnd + BND ln p ιb ln m + BA, ND A ) D( p ) where B H ND denoes he op row of he B H marx of share elasces.

Snce s nfeasble o nclude demand funcons for ndvdual households n IGEM, we creae an aggregae verson of he demand funcons (1.29).
