Contribution of Processing Exports and Ordinary Exports to China's Regional Economic Growth

Abstract

Abstract:

Based on Chen's input-output model capturing processing trade, this paper constructs the Interregional Input-Output Model Capturing Processing Trade. Based on it, we measure the respective contribution of processing exports and normal exports to China's re-gional economic growth. The results show that the traditional measure which fails to distinguish processing trade from other productions at regional level has overestimated the contribution of exports to the regional economic growth. At regional level, both the processing exports and ordinary exports play more significant roles in economic growth of coastal regions than in that of inland regions. Moreover, export pro-duction in coastal regions shows obvious spillover effect to inland regions. Overall, from 2002 to 2007, processing exports and the ordina-ry exports can explain 9.9% and 24.2% of China's economic growth respectively.

Key words: input-output model, processing exports, ordinary exports, regional economic growth
