Abstract: Taking into account the relationship between the eigenvalue of the matrix of technical coefficients and the rate of growth in a simple Leontief model, a measure of the sensitivity of the coefficients of such matrix is proposed. This allows to determine the importance of the impact of changes in the different coefficients on the rate of production growth of the system. Moreover, an extension of this approach to the analysis of the growth of other variables linked to production is proposed.
