Environmental problems are one of the most challenging issues for the entire world and each country. In economic studies, environmental issues are analyzed as negative externalities. In this article, the negative externalities of electricity production on the output growth of different sectors and household’s welfare in Iran’s economy have been studied through price system using Computable Gene...

Abstract Previous research has acknowledged that climate change is likely to expand the wealth gap, and policies may further increase inequality. Nevertheless, little focused on how affect To address this, we employ a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model quantify inequality impacts of Chinese carbon taxes. Our CGE results show tax are influenced by distribution damages, payments, recyclin...

We discuss how to avoid aggregation bias in large-scale global Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models by reducing the need of pre-model aggregation, based on the combination of algorithmic improvements and a filtering approach which removes small transactions. Using large-scale sensitivity analysis, we show the impact of pre-aggregation and filtering on model size, model solution time and ...

Special events are typically regarded as major generators of economic activity and jobs. Despite its continued use in event assessment, Input-Output (I-O) analysis has been rejected in other areas of economic impact evaluation in favor of more rigorous evaluation techniques that recognize resource constraints in the economy and interindustry effects of demand shocks. This article discusses trad...

Abstract Despite the significant impacts of technology on socioeconomic effects climate policies, many previous researchers neglected induced technical and thus resulted in biased evaluations policies. Hence, it is important that should be endogenized policy evaluation framework. The purpose this paper quantification Chinese carbon tax using a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model. are den...

This paper proposes a procedure to incorporate the conjectural variation approach in Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) analysis such that the strategic interaction among rival firms in international markets can be modelled. It shows how to calibrate the conjectured reactions of rival domestic and foreign firms. It also shows that the approach suggested by Harrison, Rutherford and Tarr (hence...

We study the problem of measuring the uncertainty of computable general equilibrium (CGE) (or RBC)-type model simulations associated with parameter uncertainty. We describe two approaches for building conŽ dence sets on model endogenous variables. The Ž rst uses a standard Wald-type statistic. The second approach assumes that a conŽ dence set (sampling or Baycsian) is available for the free par...

The main objective of this paper is to investigate the effects of technology transfer through the imports of intermediate goods by developing countries developed countries with the emphasis on Iran economy. For this purpose, we used multi-sectoral and multi–regional computable general equilibrium GTAP model (multi-sectoral and multi-regional CGE model). The paper examined the effect of a ten pe...

The direct association between air pollution and morbidity and mortality rates has been proved. This major environmental risk factor has been mainly due to extensive use of fossil fuels. Increasing pollution caused by fossil fuels can threaten human health. This study simulated the effect of green taxes on Iran’s health indicators, i.e., mortality and morbidity. We used a Computable General Equ...

The negative impact of the outbreak of bird flu on economic sectors in the partial and macro research will be analyzed using CGE models (Computable General Equilibrium). The result of the simulation studies indicate that the sector directly affected by the outbreak of bird flu poultry sectors are a traditional, medium large poultry meat and eggs. While the sectors that are indirectly affected s...
