Summary:	Motivated by stylized facts pointing to a dominant role of imported inputs in transmittingexternal price shocks to domestic prices, this paper zooms in to study the pass-through ofimported input costs to domestic producer prices. Our approach constructs effective inputprice indices from sector-level price data combined with sector-level information oninput-output linkages. Applying an error correction model specification to sector-leveloutput and input prices, the long-run pass-through rate of effective imported input costs todomestic producer prices is estimated to be around 70 percent in Kor.

Applying an error correction model specification to sector-level output and input prices, the long-run pass-through rate of effective imported input costs to domestic producer prices is estimated to be around 70 percent in Korea and almost 100 percent in selected European countries.
