M1: Social Accounting Matrices and Estimation Part 1

This module provides and introduction to Social Accounting Matrices (SAM). The focus in this module is primarily on the theory of social accounting and developing an understanding of the properties of SAMs. This module therefore serves two purposes, (1) an introduction to SAMs and (2) developing a ‘common language’ for the subsequent modules.

This module assumes you have access the MS Excel and subsequent modules will use GAMS with GAMS Studio as the editor.
