Growth Models and their Application to Long-term Planning and Forecasting

  • Chapter
Methods of Long-term Planning and Forecasting

Abstract

A general picture of growth models, their basic types and features, is given in the paper. Possibilities of their implementation at the stage of preliminary long-term planning are discussed, as well as their application to calculations of a highly aggregated long-term plan, i.e. for a period of about ten years. In the last part of the paper a specific class of models based on input-output information is examined. Results of experimental calculations are given, together with discussion of ways and means of utilisation of such models in the practical work of Gosplan.
