Introduction The purpose of this paper is to clarify the differences between three commonly confused terms and methods in the more general realm of input-output analysis: economic impact analysis, economic contribution analysis, and export base analysis. While each of the three types of analyses has a distinct purpose and method, they all rely on data […]

INTRODUCTION: Analysis-by-Parts (ABP) is a technique by which you can split the “stemming ripple effects” of an event into its individual impact components. Separating the pieces with Analysis-by-Parts gives the researcher more flexibility and customization capabilities in the analysis. DETAILED INFORMATION: To perform an Analysis-by-Parts, you will want to know Direct Labor Income and […]
INTRODUCTION: Analysis-by-Parts (ABP) is a technique by which you can split the “stemming ripple effects” of an event into its individual impact components – in this case if you have spending by line item and income. Separating the pieces with Analysis-by-Parts gives the researcher more flexibility and customization capabilities in the analysis. DETAILED INFORMATION: To […]
Introduction: Analysis-by-Parts is a technique by which you can split the “stemming ripple effects” of an Industry Event into its individual impact components – budgetary spending pattern and income. Intermediate Expenditures and income spending are the core impact factors of an Industry Event, initiating Indirect Effects and Induced Effects, respectively. Separating them into two Events […]
INTRODUCTION: Multipliers are the total production impact within the Study Area for every unit of direct production. Total production will vary depending on the method of inclusion (whether the Induced Effects are included or not). There are four (4) Multiplier View By Options: Output, Employment, Labor Income, and Value Added. Value Added can be further split into Employee Compensation, Proprietor Income, […]
