29 [5] Leontief Input-Output Model (1) An Example of Simple Economy: 1) Three industries (industry 1, 2 and 3; say, steel, autos and food) 2) An industry's products are used for production of the industry itself and others: The products of industries 1, 2 and 3 are used for industry 1. a = $ worth of ind. 1's product required for $1 worth of ind. 1's product. 11 (a = 0.2 $.2 worth of steel is needed to produce $1 worth of steel.) 11 a = $ worth of ind. 2's product required for $1 worth of ind. 1's product 21 (a = 0.4 $.4 worth of autos is needed to produce $1 worth of steel.) 21 a = $ worth of ind. 3's product required for $1 worth of ind. 1's product 31 (a = 0.1 $.1 worth of food is needed to produce $1 worth of steel.) 31 The products of industries 1, 2 and 3 are used for industry 2. a = $ worth of ind. 1's product required for $1 worth of ind. 2's product 12 (a = 0.3 $.3 worth of steel is needed to produce $1 worth of autos.) 12 a = $ worth of ind. 2's product required for $1 worth of ind. 2's product 22 (a = 0.1 $.1 worth of autos is needed to produce $1 worth of autos.) 22 a = $ worth of ind. 3's product required for $1 worth of ind. 2's product 32 (a = 0.3 $.3 worth of food is needed to produce $1 worth of autos.) 32 The products of industries 1, 2 and 3 are used for industry 3. a = 0.2 $.2 worth of steel is needed to produce $1 worth of food. 13 a = 0.2 $.2 worth of autos is needed to produce $1 worth of food. 23 a = 0.2 $.2 worth of food is needed to produce $1 worth of food. 33 III-29

30 3) Final consumption (noninput demand): d 1 = $ worth of households' consumption of steel. d 2 = $ worth of households' consumption of autos. d 3 = $ worth of households' consumption of food. 4) The sum of input values need to produce $1 worth of industry j's (j = 1, 2, 3) products should not be greater than 1: i i i3 i1 i1 i1 a +a +a = a < 1 ; a +a +a = a < 1 ; a +a +a = a < 1. 5) Let x j be the total value of industry j's products. Then, x 1 = a11x 1 + a12x 2 + a13x 3 + d 1: a11x 1 = total value of ind. 1's products used in ind. 1. 6) Let: a x = total value of ind. 1's products used in ind x = a x + a x + a x + d ; x = a x + a x + a x + d A = , which is called "input coefficient matrix". x 1 d 1 x 2 d 2 x = ; d =. x 3 d 3 III-30

31 7) Then, Ix = Ax + d. (I-A)x = d, where I-A is called "technology matrix." If we assume (I-A) is invertible and d is given, x -1 = (I-A) d. In our example, if d = (10,5,6), we can obtain x x = x 2-1 = (I-A) d = x (2) Generalization: 1) Suppose that there are n industries. Then we can define A n n, x n 1 and d n 1. 2) Then, we have (I-A)x = b. 3) If (I-A) is invertible and b is given, we can solve for x. III-31
