Abstract
This paper presents operations performed on the most recent Moroccan Input-Output Table (based on 1980 data) to facilitate its use for policy simulations. The author, Clive S. Gray, examines the sectoral cost repercussions of external shocks, such as a 10% increase in imported crude oil prices or in electricity and water tariffs. Additionally, the study evaluates the additional demand for imports and intermediate consumption resulting from 100 million DH increases in final demand across seven aggregated branches of the Moroccan economy. Due to the unavailability of sectoral breakdowns for commercial services, imports, and credit, simplifying assumptions and branch aggregation are necessary. The paper also presents algorithms for manipulating the reduced IOT on a microcomputer using Lotus 1-2-3.
