Abstract: The basic picture and framework of the transnational interregional Input-Output (I-O) table cross countries is introduced, and conventional impact analyses will be conducted to capture cross-border transactions and inter-linkages, from one region to another region, and vice versa. Also, the relationship between regional linkages and the import/export trades will be investigated. The I-O tablesreceived were used to consider different scenarios of the regional development such as the well-balanced scenario, the inertia scenario, and the scenario of economic development followed by loading of idle capacities. The I-O analysis applied to estimate business ecological situation in a region varying the total output or final demand indices. Instantly, the evaluation of the total investments required for nature protection activity is possible as well. This study also has analyzed FDI strategies via a scenario of increasing consumption up to normative standards among population. The simulations were made to estimate multiplicative effects caused by upsizing industries in the regional economy. Furthermore, from a macroeconomic perspective, structural changes may alter the relationship between the construction sector and other sectors. With this view, it is possible to explore the capability of I-O tables in tracking inter-sectoral relationships and explaining changes in such relationships with respect to structural changes. Lessons are expected to be learned from comparing the patterns of change of one sector of an economy against other sectors.
