        Location quotient is a non-statistical method which brakes technical coefficient and uses some especial treatment to adjust them for regional studies. This method has evolved during the time and its latest version is known as augmented AFLQ based on specialty sector. This article attempts to challenge this method by using the data of Tehran Province (2007) as a case study underlining the crucial cracks in it. This crucial crack is inability in truly adjusting backward linkage of the demand of weak sectors which make regionally weak sectors wrongly being considered as the key sectors of the demand side. At last, a method will be presented much more accurate in converting national table to regional table in which this crucial crack has been resolved. Manuscript profile

        In this article, it has been tried to investigate and analyze enterprise input_output model, the relationship between the main products of Khuzestan Steel Company with the internal departments of this company and also with the national economy on both the supply and demand sides and in the form of Backward and Forward linkage for the year 1400 by using the enterprise data model. Therefore, by compiling the enterprise input_output table of Khuzestan Steel Company, the production multiplier and the backward and forward linkages of the four products of slabs, billets and blooms, Pelletizing and sponge iron were calculated in the company and the national economy.The results of this research show that backward and forward linkage of Khuzestan Steel Company with the national economy is 3.21 and 1.41 units, respectively. Among the company's production activities, the highest link was related to the pelletizing product with 1.0 units and , the lowest link was related to the slab product with 0.55 units. pelletizing and sponge iron have the highest and lowest previous linkages (0.02 and 0.78 units) with the national economy, respectively. At the national level, rebar receives a large share of its demand from the products of the Khuzestan Steel Company, and ironstone is considered the most important consumable of these 4 products of the company.
