#### 4.2.6 Price-Inducing Effects  
The price-inducing effects of a 10% price increase in the NG supply sector on other sectors was analyzed using the Leontief price model. The price-inducing effect on the entire national economy was calculated through a weighted average considering the proportion of each sector's output in total output. The results of the price-inducing effects are summarized in Table 7. Based on the results of the price-inducing effects by sector due to the price increase in the NG supply sector in South Korea, the values were high in the order of \"16. Electricity and steam supply\", \"9. Basic metal products\", and \"8. Non-metallic mineral products\". In Japan, the values were great in the order of \"21. Food services and accommodation\", \"9. Basic metal products\", and \"8. Non-metallic mineral products\". A weighted average of the price-inducing effects of each sector shows that a 10% increase in output prices in the NG supply sector in South Korea and Japan results in inflation of 1.62724% and 0.97915%, respectively, in the overall national economy. \begin{table}
