Social accounting matrices and social accounting analysis

2017
This chapter shows how the Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) framework can be used to provide the initial conditions and help calibrate an applied general equilibrium model. The genesis of the SAM goes back to Richard Stone's pioneering work on social accounts. The SAM is both a data system and a conceptual framework useful for policy analysis.

Balancing large social accounting matrices with nonlinear network programming

Networks, 1989
AbstractWe formulate the problem of optimally adjusting the components of a large matrix to satisfy consistency requirements as a nonlinear network optimization model. An efficient network optimization algorithm—GENOS—is incorporated in a user friendly modeling system—GAMS.

Using Social Accounting Matrices to Account for Distortions in Non-market Economies

Economic Systems Research, 1991
The use of non-market mechanisms for allocation and distribution gives rise to hidden flows (rents) not captured in market-based national statistical sources. This paper develops an operational framework for quantifying the magnitude of these hidden flows and their percolation throughout the economy. The price-equivalents of the non-market controls are
