The Ghosh Supply-Side model measures the changes in availability of inputs on industrial output. While the Leontief matrix relies on technical coefficients aij , the Ghosh matrix relies on allocation coefficients bij = zij / xi . The allocation coefficient measures the value of transactions from sectors i to j divided by the output of sector i.
The allocation coefficients can be made into a matrix B similar to A, as detailed in equation (13).
Thus, as per equation (14).
From the previous section, we know that Ax = Z, as in equation (15).
The summation of the inputs of an industry plus its value added is equal to its output, per the IO table.
Thus, as per equation (16).
Similarly, as per equation (17).
The Ghosh matrix, G, is equal to (I-B) -1 and allows us to see the changes in final output from the changes in value added.
