Sistema interestadual de insumo-produto do Brasil: Uma aplicacao do metodo suit

Abstract

This paper proposes a method for the estimation of interregional supply and use tables in conditions of limited information called Supply and Use Interregional Tables-SUIT. The SUIT is applied in the estimation of a system for the 27 Brazilian Federation Units (FU) for the year 2011. The main characteristics of SUIT are: (i) it can be directly applied to systems composed of different regional hierarchies, (ii) it is consistent with national input-output matrices and (iii) it is consistent with the regional accounts system of Brazilian Statistical Office (IBGE). The paper makes analysis of the productive structure, the interstate relations and the trade flows among the FUs.
