INTER-REGIONAL TRADE MODELING IN THE SPATIAL CGE MODEL FOR TRANSPORT IMPROVEMENTS—ARMINGTON APPROACH AND DISPERSED SPATIAL PRICE EQUILIBRIUM APPROACH—

Inter-regional Freight Transport Model based on Spatial Price Equilibrium : Empirical Analysis of Japan

Abstract: This paper formulates an inter-regional freight transport model based on the spatial price equilibrium and applies it to Japan. This model covers twenty-three types of goods with eleven different regional industrial structures under the economic equilibrium theory. The unknown parameters of the model are calibrated in the iterative computation process. At the each iterative process, b...

Trade Liberalization and International Competitiveness in Iran: An Application of Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) Model

 Trade liberalization is often the core attention of foreign economic strategies in developing countries. Findings in the literature confirm a significant effect of free trade on developing economies through which the economic sectors benefit from technology transfer and spillovers and increasing production capacities and input productivity leading to international competitiveness. On the other...

Formulation and Analysis of a Dynamic Spatial Price Equilibrium Model

The spatial price equilibrium model begins with the Hitchcock-Koopmans transportation problem as described by Dantzig (1963). The data for this model includes a set of suppliers I and a set of markets J , with supplies ai, demands bj, transport costs cij from supplier i to market j. Cast as a planning problem, this linear program seeks a transport schedule which minimizes the cost of supplying ...
