内容简介：How does an economy's production structure determine its macroeconomic response to micro-level distortions? We introduce capital and rent rebates into a canonical single-factor input-output model and show that away from the efficiency equilibrium, distortions can have nontrivial impacts on the macroeconomy through a capital reallocation and a rent rebate channel. We further show how nominal GDP as well as price margins contribute to these two channels. The two channels give rise to both upstream as well as downstream propagation mechanisms, which have implications for industrial policy. We develop two sufficient statistics to rank sectoral importance in propagating disturbance. Using Chinese input-output data in 2007, we show that subsidizing infrastructure facilities such as electricity, heat, and power-generating sectors could have the largest impact on the real GDP.
