Abstract

Based on a non-competitive input-output model capturing China’s processing exports, this paper establishes a goal programming model to optimize China’s export structure. In this model, China’s domestic production is divided into three parts: Production for domestic use, processing exports, and non-processing exports and production for other foreign invested enterprises. This division enables differentiation of the effects of various trade patterns, on the basis of which the authors conduct an empirical analysis using 2002 data, to obtain a Pareto optimality.
