Abstract

The technique of input-output analysis is now being widely used as a tool for development planning. This technique aims at a quantitative evaluation of the processes of production and consumption and the presentation of the results in a single picture. The quantitative relationships existing between different segments of the economy are shown in the form of an input-output flow-table which are then used as coefficients in a mathematical model. The model so formed is intended to reflect the most important economic variables in the system and the interrelationships existing between them. Such a model can indeed be of considerable help in determining consistent sets of economic policy and facilitating the task of the policy maker in making a choice between them.
