ANALYSIS ON THE CHARACTERISTICS OF TRANSORTATION SYSTEM BETWEEN CHINA AND AMERICA BASED ON THE INPUT-OUTPUT THEORY

In order to analysis the position and role of transportation industry on the national economy rationally, the paper use the input-output theory to compare and analyze the characteristics of industry relevancy and industry spread in transportation industry and five transportation mode between China and America. Comparatively, the status of the Chinese transportation industry plays important role than before in the national economy. But currently due to the lower level of the Chinese industrial structure, the degree of transportation requirement by other industries is lower than America. The transportation industry in China belongs to the industries that the ratio of intermediate demand is high, and its drawing power for the relevant industries is larger than America. The impact coefficient of the Chinese transportation industry is obviously larger than its response coefficient, the inducing ability of export to transportation industry is higher than other ultimately demands. Finally, the proposals in developing Chinese transportation industry are put forward.
