Summary	The Ghosh model is the supply-side counterpart to the Leontief demand-driven input-output system, introduced by Ambica Ghosh in 1958. Rather than fixing the recipe of inputs per unit of output, it fixes allocation coefficients — the share of each sector's output sold to every downstream buyer — and asks how a change in the supply of primary inputs (value added) propagates forward to total output. Solving x' = x'B + w' gives x' = w'(I − B)^{-1}, where the Ghosh inverse G = (I − B)^{-1} plays the forward-looking role that the Leontief inverse plays for demand.	The Leontief price model is the cost-side dual of the quantity input-output system: instead of asking how much each sector must produce to meet final demand, it asks what unit price each sector must charge to cover its intermediate-input costs plus its primary-input (value-added) payments. Solving the dual equation p' = p'A + v' gives p' = v'(I − A)^{-1}, so the same Leontief inverse that propagates quantities also propagates costs, making the model the standard tool for tracing how a change in wages, taxes, or imported-input prices pushes through the entire price structure.
