Constructing input-output table for Beijing urban mass transit

The input-output table can provide a large quantity of effective and reliable data support for the analysis of industrial economy. However, currently, the urban input-output table issued every five years has not covered the urban mass transit industry. The present paper discusses the urban transit structure, separating the urban mass transit of Beijing as an independent department from the input-output table of Beijing based on the data of the volume and ticket revenue of Beijing metro. The paper analyses, designs and calculates the input-output table of Beijing urban mass transit and makes contributions to the calculation and analysis of the studies on the status, role and contributions of Beijing urban mass transit in the regional economy of Beijing city.
