Key Points

  • Increasing productivity in Philippine manufacturing lowers domestic prices and raises output.
  • Results show significant sectoral linkages across food, light, consumer, and capital goods manufacturing.
  • Utilizing computable general equilibrium analysis, the dynamics of multiple sectors are demonstrated.
  • Findings suggest effective strategies for enhancing productivity may drive overall economic benefits.

Abstract

This article quantitatively investigates the economy-wide effects of increasing productivity in the following Philippine industrial sectors: food manufactures, light manufactures, consumer goods manufactures and capital goods manufacture. Using computable general equilibrium to emphasize sectoral linkages, results indicate lower domestic price and higher output as benefits of productivity in the sector.
