Abstract
Oil revenues play a significant role in the government budget in Iran and have also an important impact on GDP. This study aims at providing a practical solution for the question of how oil revenues should be managed. In this regard, a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model has developed to examine the direct effect of distribution of oil revenues on GDP in both static and dynamic approaches .
The results of static model show that the direct distribution of oil revenues to households has a negative effect on the government expenditures and therefore decrease the GDP . The dynamic model allows the conversion of savings into investment and capital formation. So the results of running this model show the positive effect of direct distribution of oil revenues on GDP and also the negative effect of this policy on the government current spending. Therefore, the results confirm that direct distribution of oil revenues is an effective policy in reducing the dependence of government on oil revenues and also in relying more on people and the tax revenues .

Abstract
This research investigated the effects of oil revenue decreases as a non-linear model based on Threshold Vector auto-regression(TVAR), with an emphasis on Iran’s sanctions during the period of 2003–2021 with seasonal data. Real oil revenue growth was selected as a threshold variable; during the two regimes, the threshold was selected as -0. 021 for oil revenues, and by the generalized impulse response functions(GIRF), the effects of oil revenue increases on economic growth were investigated. Results revealed that shocks of oil revenue in upward and downward regimes had different effects on economic growth rates. The effects of shocks of oil revenue on economic growth in a downward regime were positive until the second period, and after that, they decreased, and after the sixth period, the economic growth was negative. And in the upward regime, it was positive, and after the first period, it decreased at a lower rate than in the downward regime and finally tended to zero. Finally, it can be concluded that the effects of oil revenue decreases on economic growth rate were more in the downward regime than upward, revealing that sanctions and decreases of oil revenue have a great impact on reductions of production and economic growth. Therefore, it is recommended that the government, by implementing true politics and economic programs in line with the reduction of sanctions, reduce the sanctions' effects on production and economic growth.

Abstract
The economic growth rate indicates changes in the level of economic activity and a country's ability to produce goods and services, which can be used as a measure to evaluate a country's economic performance and compare it with other countries. In the case of financial development, the ratio of financial assets to non-financial assets increases, which can have an impact on increasing economic growth.The purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of oil revenues on the economic growth of Persian Gulf countries with an emphasis on the financial development channel. The countries under study include: Iran, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates, and the research period was from 2003 to 2023. For this purpose, a two-regime threshold panel regression model was used. The findings show that the effect of oil revenues on economic growth through the financial development where the level of financial deepening is less than the threshold level channel is positive and significant for the first regime, So that before reaching the threshold, one percent in oil revenues increases economic growth by 9.87 percent. For the second regime, that the dependence financial development channel on oil revenues is higher than the threshold level. It is not meaningful. Also, the control variables of trade openness, gross investment, inflation, government consumption expenditure have had a positive and significant impact on the economic growth of the mentioned countries.

Abstract
The main objective of this study is to analyze the asymmetric effects of oil revenue shocks and the role of latent macroeconomic variables on the inflation of 12 major groups of consumer goods and services in the Iranian economy from 2009 to 2021. To this end, a Generalized Factor Augmented Vector Autoregression (FAVAR) model was employed, which facilitates the integration of extensive economic data and the extraction of latent nominal and real components.The findings indicate that the response of commodity group inflation to oil revenue shocks is inherently asymmetric. Positive oil revenue shocks trigger the Dutch Disease mechanism, leading to a rise in relative prices within non-tradable sectors such as healthcare, housing, and hospitality. Conversely, in the tradable goods sector, the temporary abundance of foreign exchange acts as a curb on price growth in the short term. On the other hand, negative oil revenue shocks exert severe inflationary pressure across all categories particularly import-dependent groups like food and transportation primarily through currency depreciation and structural budget deficits. Furthermore, the extracted latent components show a strong correlation with the nominal and real sectors; the first component (F1), representing the nominal sector, is the primary driver of inflation across most groups, while the second component (F2), representing the real sector (production and employment), plays a moderating role.
