摘要:{Abstract } This paper projects the effects of changes in Australia's tariff policy on economic activity and employment in each of the states. It concludes that increases in protection increase employment in Victoria while reducing employment in Western Australia and Queensland. The methodological approach is based on Leontief et al, R.E. Stat. (1965). However, modifications are made so that Leontief's method (originally applied with a conventional input-output model) can be applied with ORANI, a model in the Johansen class. As wel1 as results, the paper provides complete descriptions of the data input and theory.
