Appendix 3. An aggregation of production sectors into GTAP-EG format

Appendix 3 describes the mapping of IEA and GTAP 4 production sectors into GTAP-EG format. For more details, see Rutherford and Paltsev [2000] where the process of incorporating of IEA statistics into GTAP-EG is described. The original IEA statistics has 35 sectors. The following table presents a concordance between IEA and GTAP-EG production sectors.

3 A current version of GTAP database is GTAP 4. The fifth version is announced to be released in 2000.

4 These tools have been implemented with the assistance of Ken Pearson using modified versions of his SEEHAR.EXE and MODHAR.EXE programs.

5 GTAPinGAMS has 51 goods/production sectors: 50 goods + Investment composite (CGD)

6 Users can define their own aggregations of the GTAP data and use any labels to describe regions. For technical reasons, if a GTAP dataset is to be used with MPSGE, then regional identifiers can have at most four characters.

7 GTAP-E-FIT has the same identifiers as the GTAP4 dataset.

8 Energy is defined as the capacity to do work. One joule (J) is a unit of energy equal to the work done when a force of 1 newton acts through a distance of 1 meter. One joule is approximately equivalent to the potential energy of one apple one meter above the floor. 1 exajoule (EJ) = 1018J. For conversion: 1 EJ = 23.88 million tonnes of oil equivalent (MTOE). For electricity: 1kwh = 3.61 ·106 J, or 1EJ = 0.2778 trillion kwh.

9 A summary of economic activities from GTAP-E-FIT dataset can be found at http://debreu.colorado.edu/download/gtap-eg.html

10 In extensions of the core static model, the GTAPinGAMS framework can be readily employed to study adjustment paths, but a description of these techniques lies beyond the scope of the present paper. See Rutherford, Lau and Pahlke [1998] for a pedagogic introduction to dynamic general equilibrium analysis within the GAMS framework.

11 The distribution files provide representations of the core model as a constrained nonlinear system (CNS) and a square system of nonlinear constraints within a conventional nonlinear program (NLP).

12 Under a maintained assumption of perfect competition, Mathiesen may characterize technology as CRTS without loss of generality. Decreasing returns are accommodated through introduction of a specific factor, while increasing returns are inconsistent with the assumption of perfect competition. In this environment zero excess profit is consistent with free entry for atomistic firms producing an identical product.

13 Model files in the GTAPinGAMS distribution accommodate an infinite elasticity of transformation between domestic and export markets as they are treated in the GTAP implementation in GEMPACK. For simplicity, my algebraic exposition in this paper focuses on the case in which the elasticity of transformation is finite.

14 For the sake of brevity, I present functional forms explicitly but represent unit demand and supply functions in reduced form, e.g. airD(pirD,pirX). The next section of the paper presents detailed specific functions in the GAMS/MCP implementation.

15 There is no reason that this functional form should be employed in every study. For example, when we use the GTAP dataset to study energy and environmental issues, it is important to account for the nature of substitution possibilities among energy carriers as well as between energy and non-energy inputs to production; so in those applications a nested CES function is employed in which energy trades off against value-added with a non-zero elasticity of substitution.

16 There are some simplifications here. For example, the regional composition of transportation services is identical across all bilateral trade flows. Furthermore, while the dataset incorporates explicit trade and transport margins on international trade flows, wholesale and retail margins on domestic sales are ignored in the dataset, so there is some asymmetry in the database's price level.

17 The model formulation assumes that the export tax applies on the fob price (net of transport margins), while the import tariff applies on the cif price, gross of export tax and transport margin.

18 Within the dataset investment inputs flow to the cgd sector, and demand for cgd sectoral output appears as the sole non-zero in the Iir vector for each region r.

19 When the elasticity of transformation between goods produced for the domestic and export markets is infinite, the market clearance conditions for Dir and Xir are merged, i.e.

Yir = DIir + DGir + DCir + Iir +
å
s 
Mirs + TDir.
and prices pirD and pirX are replaced throughout the model by a single price index, pirY.

20 I have omitted exception operators from the variable and function declarations to make the code easier to read. In most aggregations of the dataset, the model shown here is operational. In highly disaggregate models, however, not all goods are produced in all regions, and it is necessary to specify, for example, Y(i,r)$(vdm(i,r)+vxm(i,r)).

21 The output tax is defined on a gross basis. For example, the value of sales in the domestic market gross of tax equals vdm(i,r) of which (1-ty(i,r))*vdm(i,r) is returned to producers and ty(i,r)*vdm(i,r) is paid to the government.

22 ``va:'' is a nesting identifier. These names are arbitrary and may have from one to four characters. Two reserved names are ``s:'' which represents the elasticity of substitution at the root of the inputs tree and ``T:'' which represents the elasticity of transformation at the root of the output tree.

23 Readers unfamiliar with the MPSGE model representation may wish to refer back to the algebraic equilibrium conditions. The specification of the $PROD:Y(I,R) block automatically generates a zero profit condition for Yir. It also generates terms in the market clearance equations for all associated inputs and outputs. In this function the affected markets include the domestic output market, the market for export of good i from region r, markets for Armington composites entering intermediate demand, and primary factors markets. For this reason the tabular format is very compact - in essence, the user only needs to specify the dual (zero-profit) conditions and the modeling language automatically generates the primal (market clearance) equations.

24 Note that export taxes on sales from region s in region r are accrue to the representative agent in region s (A:RA(s)) while import tariffs are paid to the representative agent in region r (A:RA(r)).

25 A .tl suffix alerts MPSGE that a set of nests are being declared. When an input is to be associated with one of these nests, the set label flag must be specified on the input line.

26 In terms of computational complexity, the cost of solving a system of equations increases somewhere between the square and the cube of the number of dimensions, although in large-scale implementations such as the GAMS/MCP solver PATH or MILES, computational complexity depends on both the number of equations and their density.

27 Of course it is mathematically equivalent to use the cost function or an expression for cost based on the unit demand functions, i.e. if:

c(p) º minx å
pi xi    s.t. f(x) = 1
then c(p) = åi pi xi*(p) where xi*(p) is the unit demand function.

28 There is a subtle but important point with regard to the complex system of taxes in GTAP. Users should not assume that because the dataset has a tax instrument the associated tax rates have a strong empirical basis. The research work in putting together GTAP has tended to focus on trade taxes (import tariffs and export taxes), and all other tax rates come directly from the national input-output tables. If you undertake an analysis in which the structure of the domestic tax system plays an important role, it is highly recommended to collect and update the benchmark tax rates. For an example of how a domestic tax system may be introduced in a GTAP model, see Harrison, Rutherford and Tarr [1997].

29 In the MPSGE model a single entry in the import activity introduces both the import and export taxes, and given a description of taxes applying to the producer, the modelling language automatically generates the appropriate income entries, greatly reducing the likelihood of an accounting error.

30 MPSGE syntax can be found at http://debreu.colorado.edu/mainpage/mpsge.htm

31 Under a maintained assumption of perfect competition, Mathiesen may characterize technology as CRTS without loss of generality. Decreasing returns are accommodated through introduction of a specific factor, while increasing returns are inconsistent with the assumption of perfect competition. In this environment zero excess profit is consistent with free entry for atomistic firms producing an identical product.

32 GAMS has a special operator used for exception handling. It is denoted as a dollar sign. The exception operator is very useful, for example, in the cases when we want to represent some sectors of an economy which may not be active in a benchmark. For more information, see GAMS User's Guide.

33 The instructions for obtaining the GTAP data can be found at http://www.agecon.purdue.edu/gtap/

34 Short directions are also given in the file README.TXT of the GTAPinGAMS archive.

35 The GTAP-EG build routine and the model use the LIBINCLUDE tools located in the INCLIB directory of the GTAP-EG distribution package. In order to be able to use the tools in your own applications, you need to install them into GAMS directory. The latest version of the LIBINCLUDE tools is distributed as a file inclib.pck. To install it on your computer download the file from http://nash.colorado.edu/tomruth/inclib/inclib.pck into your GAMS system directory, and run GAMSINST. A description of inclib.pck can be found at http://nash.colorado.edu/tomruth/inclib/gams2txt.htm

36 The files from the ZIP archive can be extracted by using WinZip.exe or unzip.exe. WinZip can be downloaded from http://www.winzip.com

37 Make sure that you are connected to a proper directory.

38 Make sure that GAMS is included in the PATH variable of your computer's MS-DOS. To check it, in MS-DOS prompt type path and press Enter.

39 To uncomment a pause command, delete a :(column) sign, i.e. change a line from :pause to pause.

40 To run the GTAP-EG model ``as is'', a region ``USA'' should be present in every aggregation. Otherwise, a user needs to change a numeraire region in the line e:pc(``usa'') in the demand block of the GTAP-EG model.

41 SET and MAP files are provided with the GTAPinGAMS package. An aggregation to aspen_small.zip is done automatically if you run aspen.bat

42 The mapping file is copied if one can be found. This is done to assure that it is always possible to trace the aggregation definitions for any dataset.

43 The first calculation which is performed is a benchmark replication check in which a solver may report ``INFEASIBLE''. This simply means that there is some imprecision in the data, as is subsequently reported in the listing as ``Benchmark tolerance''. Any number on the order of 1.e-4 or smaller indicates a reasonably precise dataset.
