"Approximating International Linkages in a National CGE Model"
by Schreiber, Andrew, Alex Marten and Ann Wolverton


Abstract
This paper assesses the trade-offs of incorporating a reduced form representation of international trade in a national computable general equilibrium model setting. We compare the efficacy of a reduced form representation of a large open economy model using estimated elasticities derived from the GTAPinGAMS package with a model with the rest of world explicitly denominated. We then apply the reduced form framework to U.S. EPA’s SAGE model, a large scale intertemporal CGE model of the United States economy. We explore implications of the reduced form framework by comparing modeled impacts to those produced by a version of SAGE modeled as a small open economy. Particular attention is paid to how the reduced form approach to modeling international trade linkages interacts with other salient features of the more complicated modeling framework.
