Simulating productivity gains with an input-output model / by René Durand, Pierre Mercier.: CS15-602/77E-PDF

"This paper introduces a new input-output simulation model that computes the multifactor productivity gains associated with any resource allocation resulting from a shock given to the final demand of the economy. The model may be used to simulate what if questions as well as to compute the contribution of various categories of final expenditures to the growth of productivity in the Canadian economy over the historical record. Both types of questions are illustrated in the paper, including the impact of Canadian exports, broken down into 35 commodity groupings"--Abstract, page [1].
