Plans for APEC trade liberalisation include the elimination of all tariffs between member states. In this paper we use two computable general equilibrium models to examine the effects of these plans, focussing on China. Our modelling shows that liberalisation increases China's capital stock and...

Computable general equilibrium modelling in Australia is oriented towards providing inputs to the policy-formation process, a process that requires detail. We explain how the necessary level of detail can be provided using analysis of the potential economic impacts of a carbon price on the...

This paper presents an overview of the Monash Multi-Regional Forecasting-Green (MMRF-Green) model. MMRF-Green is a multi-regional, multi-sectoral model of the Australian economy. It is founded on the MMR model. MMR is a comparative-static model. MMRF-Green, in contrast, is a dynamic model;...

A key distinguishing characteristic of computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling in Australia is its orientation to providing inputs to the policy-formation process. Policy makers require detail. They want to be able to identify convincingly which industries, which occupations, which regions...
