Prospects for economic growth and poverty reduction in Uganda: a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) analysis
… from world markets.<br/>Using a country specific CGE model and selected exogenous changes and policies, our findings suggest that an increase in the world price of exports and workers remittances, and a decrease in import tariffs are growth and welfare enhancing with the positive shock to world …

A computable general equilibrium (CGE) model with endogenous labor supply for the study of income taxation in Indonesia
The personal income tax in Indonesia has grown in revenue importance since major changes in 1984 broadened its base and lowered its bracket rates. Currently, the personal income tax and the corporate income tax are the second most important sources of government revenue in Indonesia. This thesis …

Narrowing income disparities as policy priority for inclusive economic growth: An applied computable general equilibrium (CGE) approach on urban and non-urban industries in Myanmar
… the concerns of this research, the concept of Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) and the ORANI_G single country model are applied to test a sample of 57 sectors, under 15 different industries, by using the GEMPack software. The results obtained are justified and presented under four …

The economics of US greenhouse gas emissions reduction policy : assessing distributional effects across households and the 50 United States using a recursive dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model
… (2015 - 2050). I use a recursive dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model to estimate the economic effects of a US "cap-and-dividend" policy, by simulating the implementation of the Carbon Limits and Energy for America's Renewal (CLEAR) Act, a bill proposed by Senators Cantwell …

The distributive effects of inflation stabilization policies in Brazil: A CGE modeling approach
… behavior is captured by means of a multisector computable general equilibrium (CGE) submodel. Macroeconomic relationships are modeled through the money market, the loanable funds market, and the current account of the balance of payments.

Benchmarking climate change strategies under constrained resource usage
… This is an innovative bechmarking approach to computable general equilibrium (CGE) that provides a spatial analysis of geopolitical blocs and industry groupings within these blocs. It includes international markets for carbon commodities and geophysical climate effects. It is shown that climate …

Incidence of value-added tax in Indonesia: A general equilibrium analysis
This study utilizes a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model designed for an open economy to analyze the incidence of a consumption-type value-added tax (VAT) in Indonesia. Tax incidence is broadly defined to include the impact of the VAT on relative commodity prices, demand and supply of …

Quantitative analysis of alternative transportation under environmental constraints
… introducing this technological option within a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the economy. The transportation sector accounts for an important part of CO2 emissions and analyses that have imposed carbon limits on the economy have shown relatively limited reductions in …

An analysis of the potential socio-economic impacts of shale gas development in South Africa
… economy. This paper makes use of a dynamic Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model adapted for the South African energy sector to analyse the potential socio-economic impacts of the development of shale gas. Simulation results indicate potential negative impacts on GDP contribution by all …

Demographic Changes and Regional Economy: Simulation Results From the Chicago CGE Model
… For this purpose, this paper uses a two-region computable general equilibrium (CGE) model, combined with an overlapping generations (OLG) framework. The first finding is that the aging population has significant negative impacts on Chicago economy, which are quite similar to the results found in …

Induced technical change in computable general equilibrium models for climate-change policy analysis
… reductions. The analysis is conducted using a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the US economy-a numerical simulation that determines aggregate welfare based on the interaction of prices with the demands for and supplies of commodities and factors across different markets. Within …

Welfare distortions of climate change policies
… different components of welfare loss in computer general equilibrium (CGE) models, so as to further understand the issue. The MIT Emissions Prediction and Policy Analysis (EPPA) model, a large-scale computable general equilibrium (CGE) model, simulates trends in global economics and greenhouse gas …

Combining a renewable portfolio standard with a cap-and-trade policy : a general equilibrium analysis
… such as wind, solar, and biomass. I use a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model, the MIT Emissions Prediction and Policy Analysis (EPPA) model, which is able to capture the economy-wide impacts of this combination of policies. I have represented renewables in this model in two ways. At …

Modelling the global prospects and impacts of heavy duty liquefied natural gas vehicles in computable general equilibrium
… heavy duty natural gas vehicles into a computable general equilibrium (CGE) economic modelling was developed to investigate the potential adoption and impacts. Modelling variables such as vehicle and infrastructure costs were tested and several scenarios were applied to examine the …

Policy experiments for the Saudi’s economy using a Computable General Equilibrium Model (CGE): oil demand and tariff liberalisation effects on the Saudi economy
… aims to provide a comprehensive analysis using a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) Model for the economy of Saudi Arabia and of the possible effects of some policy measures. It further explains the mechanisms through which they affect different economic agents. Using a static CGE Model, we show …

Modeling, Empirics and Policy Implications of Firm Heterogeneity in International Trade
<p>Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models are essential computational tools for trade policy analysis. While traditional CGE models based on the Armington assumption of national product differentiation have been successfully applied to various policy scenarios, they also have significant …
