capital inputs.
In these sectors, there are two kinds of prices in each region. One is the
producers price

p and the other is the purchasers price

commodity j is tradable between regions o and d, then the producers price in
region o is represented by

After having paid wages to households, the sector has to decide how to
distribute profit and finance investment. In this model, the net investment is financed
by new bonds. Let

r

rate. The bonds are traded in each region. The initial number of bonds is normalized by

3.2 Household Sector
A representative household maximizes the utility level subject to income
constraints. The full income consists of wages and interest on bond holdings. The
