these are aggregated over all ‘h’ to determine Spanish private household demand, ‘x3tot_h’.<br />

Figure 5: The Private consumption nest for each household ‘h’ in ORANI-DYN.<br />

‘Inbound tourism’, is defined as tourism expenditures within the territory of<br />

interest. In Figure 3 of part I of the report, the tourism account represents a new column<br />

addition in the ORANI-DYN database, labelled as account 7. The structure of ‘inbound’<br />

tourism demands in the ORANI-DYN model is detailed in Figure 6. Since all of tourism<br />

expenditure is effectively a luxury or supernumerary expenditure, the usage of an LES<br />

function is not deemed appropriate. 12 In the ORANI-DYN model, the overall composition<br />

of commodity demands in inbound tourism is assumed to stay constant over time and<br />

changes in line with the fortunes of the tourism industry in Spain. Thus, in the top nest, a<br />

Leontief function is employed. Similarly, in the second nest, a Leontief function is also<br />

employed between domestic and foreign tourist expenditures on each composite<br />

11 A discussion of the relevant expenditure elasticities and Frisch parameters is provided in section 19.1 in<br />

part I of this report<br />

12 The LES function incorporates a subsistence and a supernumerary element to expenditure.<br />
