Economic Development Incentives Policy How are the Total Economic Impacts Determined? Once the decision to conduct an analysis has been reached, the first step in evaluating the fiscal and economic impact of a program, project, event, or industry expansion is to estimate its regional economic impact. This section focuses on how to estimate regional total economic impacts. The manner in which total economic impacts are created in an economy is often compared to the way ripples are made in a pond. The total economic impact has three segments, which are delineated in Figure 1. ‣ Direct impacts (the initial drops causing the ripple effects) are the changes in spending due to a new or existing economic activity. ‣ Indirect impacts are economic changes required to produce the supplies and services required by the direct effects. ‣ Induced impacts are the changes in consumer spending generated by changes in regional labor income that results from the direct and indirect effects.

The two types of direct effects are delineated by the duration of their economic impacts Page A-7
Economic Development Incentives Policy and the manner in which the annual level of spending that generates the economic impacts is estimated. Often a proposed project has both types of direct effects (e.g., a new hotel has a construction phase as well as an operations phase). In such cases, the economic activity that makes up the two types of direct impacts must be separated. Impacts of Projects and Special Events Typically only the total spending or person-years of effort for the full duration of projects and special events is well known. Therefore, in order to provide a sense of the phase-in process of any project, annual spending estimates over the life of the project are made as proportions of the total. Examples are the construction of a new hotel or spending generated by having an existing local facility serve as the venue for a soccer tournament. In both cases, the economic activities involved are likely to be measured in total dollars spent or in terms of the total number of jobs that will be “created.” Further, the term of the economic activity associated with projects and events typically is a period shorter than five years. (Equipment purchases also fall into this category of “one-time economic impacts” through the spending for equipment. Generally, equipment purchases are not made in the region, so the economic impacts generated directly from such spending tend to be small.) Recurring Impacts Unlike spending on special events or construction and equipment purchases, the annual operation and maintenance expenditures of new and/or expanded facilities generate an on-going stream of economic impacts. Such economic impacts are typically referred to as recurring impacts. The regional economic impacts of operations and maintenance expenditures are based on spending or employment levels for a typical year. Generally, however, the establishment or program for which the impacts are measured, tends to endure for a much longer period. Hence, the recurring economic Page A-8
