On the Analysis of Accuracy for the Estimation of CO₂ Emission byUtilizing International I-O Table

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the accuracy of estimation value of CO₂ emission derived from the I-O analysis. The paper utilizes the international I-O table for the consideration. In the estimation of the value of CO₂emission, two methods are utilized in the analysis up to now. This paper considers the accuracy of 4 estimation methods, which are 2 known methods and new 2 methods. The paper shows the accuracy with the root square error between the standard value and the estimated value. From the analysis, this paper shows that the estimated value derived from (I-A)^-1? F estimation method is the best in general.
