  1. Regional Input-Output Modeling System (RIMS II) Zoë O. Ambargis Understanding Regional Economic Data for Policy and Planning Dallas, TX September 8, 2006

  2. What is RIMS II? • Developed in the mid 1970’s • Model incorporates the linkages among the industries in a regional economy • Provides five types of input-output multipliers for any county or multi-county region • The multipliers are useful, baseline, order-of-magnitude estimates commonly used to analyze the impacts of economic development projects

  3. How Have RIMS II Multipliers Been Used? • Opening and closing military bases • Tourist expenditures • New energy facilities • Construction of sports facilities • New retail establishments • New airports or port facilities • Opening and closing manufacturing plants • University expenditures

  4. How Have RIMS II Multipliers Been Used?

  5. Who Uses RIMS II Multipliers?

  6. RIMS II Multipliers

  7. Questions to Ask • What is being studied? • What is the affected region? • Is there more than one phase? • How long will the project take? • What are the affected industries? • What is the final-demand change? • How large is the final-demand change?

  8. Example 1: Investment in New Construction • Question: What is the total impact on a region of building a new sports facility? • What is the final-demand change? • $100 million investment in new construction • What is the affected region? • Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX MSA

  9. Example 1: Total Impact of an Investment in New Construction

  10. Example 1: Total Output Impact of Investment in New Construction

  11. Example 2: Sports Facility Operation • Question: What is the total impact on a region of sports facility operation?

  12. Example 2: Total Impact of Sports Facility Operation

  13. Example 2: Total Earnings Impact of Sports Facility Operation

  14. Example 2: Total Employment Impact of Sports Facility Operation

  15. Important Considerations • Multipliers are best suited for estimating the impacts of changes that are small relative to the size of the region’s economy • Size of multiplier will vary from one industry to another and from one regional economy to another

  16. Multiplier Comparisons by Region
