Performance of bidimensional location quotients for constructing input–output tables

Abstract This article seeks to verify the extent which formulation of two-dimensional location quotients (2D-LQ) entails a methodological advance in building or generating economic accounts related sub-territories drawing from basic information. The input–output tables Euro Area 19 for 2010 and 2015 are references analysis. We have used five statistics measure similarity between true domestic coefficient matrices ten countries (Austria, Belgium, Estonia, France, Germany, Italy, Latvia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain) they generate using nonsurvey techniques (CILQ, FLQ, AFLQ, 2D-LQ). focus substantially centers on ranking efficiency by comparing results four mentioned above. scope work employs standard parameters (associated with 2D-LQ) as guidance ascertain optimum parameters.
