摘要：The Republic of Moldova lacks an updated Input-Output Table (IOT), which is necessary for compiling a Social Accounting Matrix and calibrating a Computable General Equilibrium model. The author’s goal is to estimate by economic, mathematical and statistical methods the IOT for 2019 using a IOT for 2014 as a reference. The author first defines an optimal classification of sectors present in IOT-2019 to ensure comparability with IOT-2014. Subsequently, the author reconciles data from National Accounts Statistics, Balance of Payments and budget execution reports to compile the IOT quadrant 1. For quadrants 2 and 3, the columns for which there are statistical data in the aforementioned sources are first determined, after which the missing parts are compiled formulating and solving a mathematical optimization problem, in which the objective function is minimization of structural differences between IOT-2019 and IOT- 2014.
