  28. General Equilibrium Model

  29. The General Equilibrium Model EXPORT OR IMPORT RURAL TOURISM URBAN TOURISM PARK NATURE LABOR CAPITAL LAND POLLUTION AGRICULTURE MANUFACTURING RURAL AREA URBAN AREA

  30. r Rural tourism s Urban tourism a Agriculture m Manufacture xi Domestic demand for good i yi Domestic supply of good i pi Price of good i L Labor endowment K Capital endowment l Land endowment, l =1 T Land used in agriculture n Natural Park, (n+T=1) u Aggregate utility level z Pollution emitted from manufacturing t Pollution tax t Tariff Mi Net import of tradable good i Summary of Notation

  31. Summary of Functions • Aggregate Expenditure Function • Total Revenue Function

  32. Aggregate Expenditure Function

  33. Aggregate Expenditure Function (1) • Homogenous of degree one in all prices • Concave in prices • Non-decreasing in prices, utility, pollution emission, and natural park

  34. Aggregate Expenditure Function (2) • Shephard’s lemma, the demand for good i • Output demand is downward sloping • The shadow price of clean environment, or the marginal willingness for consumer to pay to for clean environment

  35. Aggregate Expenditure Function (3) • The shadow price of natural park, or the marginal willingness for consumer to pay to preserve natural park: • Utility function

  36. Total Revenue Function

  37. Total Revenue Function (1) • Homogenous of degree one in all prices • Homogenous of degree one in all factor endowments

  38. Total Revenue Function (2) • Convex in prices • Concave in factor endowments • The supply of good i

  39. Total Revenue Function (3) • Output supply is upward sloping • The quantity of pollution emitted

  40. Total Revenue Function (4) • The wage of factor • Factor demand is downward sloping

  41. Equilibrium Conditions

  42. Equilibrium Conditions (1) • The economy’s budget constraint total expenditure = total revenue [1]

  43. Equilibrium Conditions (2) • Net import of tradable goods [2] to [5] • Good is imported if • Good is exported if

  44. Equilibrium Conditions (3) • Pollution [6] • Land market [7] • Inverse world demand for rural tourism [8] • Inverse world demand for urban tourism [9]

  45. Welfare Analysis

  46. Welfare Analysis (1) • Exogenous variables • are given at world market prices • Endogenous variables • are set by world demand for rural and urban tourism

  47. Welfare Analysis (2) • Total differentiate [1], yield • Rearrange and using [2] to [6], yield [10]

  48. Welfare Analysis (3) • Total differentiate [8], and rearrange, yield [11] [11’]

  49. Welfare Analysis (4) • Similarly, total differentiate [9], yield [12] [12’] • Where, for Proportional change of tourism prices Proportional change of tourism import

  50. Welfare Analysis (5) Own inverse elasticity of world demand for tourism Cross inverse elasticity of world demand for tourism Inverse elasticity of Natural Park to tourism prices Inverse elasticity of pollution to tourism prices
