The Journal Of Econometric Study Of Northeast Asia (jesna)

Inflation has occurred repeatedly in China. It is still regarded as one of the big issues endangering stable and sustained economic growth. This paper analyzes the cost structure (inflation), total factor productivity (TFP), and their relationships by industry in China for the period 1987-1997, using 1987, 1992 and 1997 input-output tables. For this purpose, we estimate the capital stock by industry and the 1997 input output table at constant 1990 prices. We divide the whole ten-year period into two parts: 1987-1992 and 1992-1997. This discussion is made because China adopted policies for the socialist market economy in 1992, since when nearly all prices have been determined in the market. For the two periods, we compare and examine the cost structure of each industry, the relationship between productivity and inflation, and the contribution made to the improvement of the productivity (TFP) of the Chinese economy by adopting the market economy. We also discuss some implications for inflation since 2003, with reference to the government policy of macro-control.Inflation has occurred repeatedly in China.
