Abstract: This paper develops a three-stage extension of the standard biproportional RAS algorithm-an extension that we label TRAS-to incorporate information in addition to row and column margins. The TRAS algorithm is tested using pseudo-censored input-output tables and is shown to produce more accurate estimates than does the RAS algorithm.
