Book 2017 18 Social Accounting Matrix for India

Download or read book 2017 18 Social Accounting Matrix for India written by Pal, Barun Deb and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2020-12-05 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this document is to provide Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) database for Indian Economy for the year 2017-18. This SAM accounts 112 sectors of Indian economy of which 39 sectors are accounted for agriculture and allied activities, 18 sectors are related to agriculture based processing activities, 4 mining sectors, 24 manufacturing sectors other than agro-processing, 3 sectors related to utilities, 1 construction sector and 23 service sectors including transport and trade. The primary factor input has been classified into 8 types of labor, 4 types of capital and one category of land. The categorization of labor is based on the level of education of the workers and geographical location i.e. rural and urban. The 4 types of capital are; crop, live animal, mining and other financial capital. This SAM distinguishes households into three broad categories like, rural farm households, rural non-farm households and urban households. Households are further disaggregated into per capita expenditure quintiles. Therefore, this database is useful for the scholars and policy makers who are interested to work on macroeconomic policy analysis for Indian economy.

Book Compilation of an Input Output Table and Social Accounting Matrix for India

Download or read book Compilation of an Input Output Table and Social Accounting Matrix for India written by Anuradha Venkatesh and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of this paper is to contribute to India's macroeconomic database of Input- Output Tables (IOTs) and Social Accounting Matrices (SAMs). The Central Statistics Office (CSO) of the Government of India has been regularly publishing IOTs since the 1960s. The latest table was published in 2012 for the reference year 2007-08. Although a Supply and Use Table (SUT) is available for 2012-13, a corresponding IOT has not been presented thus far. Given the significance of these databases in understanding complex inter-relationships within economies, it is imperative that they are regularly made available to practitioners in the field. Therefore, to maintain continuity, this paper proposes to transform the SUTs into a symmetric I-O flow matrix. A 140 x 140 commodity matrix will comprise a uniquely detailed database, useful to practitioners and policy makers alike. We also propose to compile satellite accounts based on the new I-O table. Since the government has not published such matrices for several years, we develop a methodology to undertake their construction. In addition, this study seeks to enrich India's anthology of SAMs by constructing a dis-aggregated matrix of 140 sectors for the Indian economy. Such an extensive database can be used for I-O, SAM and computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling of energy, employment and climate policies for India.

Book Social Accounting Matrices and Multiplier Analysis

Download or read book Social Accounting Matrices and Multiplier Analysis written by Clemens Breisinger and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2009 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This training guide introduces development practitioners, policy analysts, and students to social accounting matrices (SAMs) and their use in policy analysis. There are already a number of books that explain the System of National Accounts and SAM multipliers-some of these are recommended at the end of this training guide. However, most books tend to be quite technical and move quickly from an introduction to more complex applications. By contrast, this guidebook uses a series of hands-on exercises to gradually introduce SAMs and multiplier analysis. It therefore complements more theoretical SAM and multiplier literature and provides a first step for development practitioners and students wishing to understand the strengths and limitations of these economic tools. It is also useful for policy analysts and researchers embarking on more complex SAM-based methodologies. One such methodology is computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling, for which IFPRI has also developed a series of introductory exercises and a standard modeling framework.To download the exercises, go to www.ifpri.org/publication/social-accounting-matrices-and-multiplier-analysis

Book Environmentally Extended Social Accounting Matrix  ESAM  for Climate Change Analysis in India

Download or read book Environmentally Extended Social Accounting Matrix ESAM for Climate Change Analysis in India written by Barun Deb Pal and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes concept and construction of environmentally Extended Social Accounting Matrix (ESAM) for India for 2006-07. In our ESAM, there are 35 sectors, 9 household occupational categories. The ESAM shows inter relationship between the economic activities as well as their impact on GHG emissions and depletion of natural resources. The ESAM multiplier helps us to analyse direct and indirect-induced impact of growth in sectoral output on GHG emission. Sometimes researchers rely on the direct relationship between the economic activity and GHG emissions but their indirect and induced impact must be incorporated to see economy wide impact on GHG emission. In case of paddy the direct effect on GHG emission (6tons/rupees lakh of output) is substantially lower than their indirect and induced effect (32 tons/rupees lakh of output). Also this study shows that growth in service sector in India will not cause significant total impact on GHG emission.

Book Applications of the Input Output Framework

Download or read book Applications of the Input Output Framework written by Kakali Mukhopadhyay and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a fresh perspective on the ever-growing relevance of input-output analysis in problem solving. It is based on the “19th National Conference of the Input-Output Research Association of India (IORA)”, held in 2017 in Mumbai, India. The conference promoted the exchange of ideas on input-output analysis and related methods among economists, government officials, policymakers, academicians and industrialists. The book captures the unique ideas of prominent scholars, extends the basic “input-output framework,” analytical tool, outlines the possible impacts of some major policy decisions adopted by the Government of India, and puts forward concrete policy suggestions. In addition, it highlights the versatility of the Leontief model, which is currently being extended to cover a diverse spectrum of policy issues, ranging from agricultural productivity to science and technology and from carbon hotspots to energy and environmental consequences. A perfect blend of theory and application, the book provides a realistic outlook on sensitive economies and interdependencies between sectors.

Book An Integrated Framework for Energy Economy Emissions Modeling

Download or read book An Integrated Framework for Energy Economy Emissions Modeling written by Tejal Kanitkar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-27 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book combines three different energy-economy-emissions modeling methodologies into one Integrated Modeling Framework (IMF) in an attempt to fill gaps in current modeling research as it applies to developing countries. Through the analysis of existing mathematical models, including large macro-economic models and technology-explicit energy models, the work proposes planning methodologies for developing countries that face challenges on their economy and infrastructure due to climate change. The three modeling methodologies discussed in the chapters are a decomposition analysis of trends in emissions intensity of GDP, linear programming techniques to determine optimum energy supply pathways given various resource and emissions constraints, and an input-output analysis to evaluate the impact of energy policies on income and equity. After a brief introduction to the history of the development of energy studies and the linkages between energy, economic, and environmental systems, the book delves into the component methodologies of the IMF and their intended outcomes. The decomposition analysis is intended to gauge the energy intensity of GDP and the structural composition of the economy to provide a basis on which scenarios are constructed in the following two methodologies. The linear programs are meant to develop a methodology to determine energy options under a variety of scenarios that capture the technical and economic characteristics of the power sector of developing countries. Lastly, the input-output analysis aims to build a methodology through which energy policy decisions can be understood and quantified to ensure the best possible impacts on developing economies and societies. Those who will be interested in this book include policy makers, academics, and students and professionals working on energy studies and energy-economy modeling.

Book Fiscal Control of Pollution

Download or read book Fiscal Control of Pollution written by Rajat Verma and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume analyses the process and structure of ecotaxes in India to bring forth its rationale, application and incidence on emerging environmental problems on the backdrop of the environmental issues confronted by the Indian economy. Being at infant stage in India, the concept of ecotaxes is plagued with large empirical difficulties. This book provides a holistic understanding of the complexities in the design and implementation of these fiscal instruments at the country level. After elaborating on the theory, history of its applications, the book provides an innovative methodological exercise. It examines the adequacy and relevance of ecotaxation in the Indian context, along with ensuring that the distortions due to the proposed levy are minimised. The incidence of these taxes on the households, the double dividend hypothesis and the effect on competitiveness of the producer are a few of the core themes elaborated upon in this book. This is demonstrated through a linear general equilibrium framework of Environmentally extended Social Accounting Matrix (E-SAM). The book provides material for the researchers and graduate students on the methodological structure of eco-taxes. The proposed methodological intervention could be utilised by the researchers who wish to analyse the macroeconomic impact of any tax through the framework of Social Accounting Matrix (SAM). Additionally, the process as well as the implications and nuances provided in the book will assist the policy makers to design innovative policies for dealing with environmental issues. The volume also has something for the practitioners by helping them comprehend various effects of these instruments on different stake holders of the economy and thus will be useful as a policy prescription. The three policy scenarios analysed in this study could be considered by the policymakers while attempting to design these instruments in the Indian context and thus ending the extensive reliance on the age old and grossly ineffective Command and Control (CAC) Policies.

Book Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi  PM KISAN  and the adoption of modern agricultural technologies in Uttar Pradesh  India

Download or read book Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi PM KISAN and the adoption of modern agricultural technologies in Uttar Pradesh India written by Varshney, Deepak and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2020-01-27 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme aims to provide income support to farmers to facilitate timely access to inputs by easing their liquidity needs. This study, based on 1,406 farmers of Uttar Pradesh and using a binary choice model, examines the scheme’s targeting accuracy and the correlates of farmers’ spending patterns. Triple difference with matching estimators are used to identify the differential impact of PM-KISAN on Krishi Vigyan Kendras (farm science centers, or KVKs) beneficiaries. Results show that PM-KISAN reached to one-third of all the farmers in the first three months of its implementation. Moreover, the study finds no selection bias based on social, economic and agricultural characteristics. The scheme has significantly helped those who are relatively more dependent on agriculture and have poor access to credit. Moreover, scheme has significantly stimulated the KVK ’s impact on the adoption of modern cultivars.

Book GHG Emissions and Economic Growth

Download or read book GHG Emissions and Economic Growth written by Barun Deb Pal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Issues linking climate change and economic growth are now at the centre of discussions regarding development strategies especially in the context of developing countries. This book contributes by analyzing the relationship between economic growth and GHG emissions in India with explicit reference to all major economic sectors. One of the most popular tools for macroeconomic policy analysis is Social Accounting Matrix (SAM). The book presents the methods and estimates of the latest Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) for India, which provides a major data base describing the complete circular flow of income and input-output transactions among the sectors of the economy. The novelty of the book lies in the fact that for the first time a SAM has been prepared for the Indian economy with environmental indicators. A detailed methodology for constructing such an extended SAM is also presented in the book. The environmental social accounting matrix (ESAM) based analysis has been included to show direct and indirect links between economic growth and GHG emissions. The book also includes analysis of factors affecting historical GHG emissions trends in India. The book goes beyond SAM and applies computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling to derive climate-change policy analysis and simulations. This CGE-based analysis is an important contribution to the current debate surrounding carbon tax and its possible impact on macroeconomic growth.
