@techreport{oai:ir.ide.go.jp:00038136, author = {Meng, Bo and Ando, Asao}, month = {May}, note = {application/pdf, IDP000029_001, The gravity model, entropy model, potential type model and others like these have been adopted to formulate interregional trade coefficients under the framework of Multi-Regional I-O (MRIO) analysis. Since most of these models are based upon analogies in physics or on statistical principles, they do not provide a theoretical explanation from the view of a firm's or individual's rational and deterministic decision making. In this paper, according to the deterministic choice theory, not only is an alternative formulation of the trade coefficients presented, but also a discussion of an appropriate definition for purchasing prices indices. Since this formulation is consistent with the MRIO system, it can be employed as a useful model-building tool in multi-regional models such as the spatial CGE model.}, title = {An Economic Derivation on Trade Coefficients under the Framework of Multi-regional I-O Analysis}, year = {2005} }
