Total Requirements Coefficients

Definition

Total Requirements Coefficients. I-O coefficients that estimate overall production required to produce a dollar of output.

These coefficients (expressed as per dollar of output delivered to final demand) reflect

  • the initial final demand for the output of a given industry or commodity, and
  • both direct and indirect requirements resulting from the initial demand.[1]
