The Regional Industrial Multiplier System: A Guide for River Basin Analysts

Ellen Hall

No 329933, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: This report explains, in simplified terms, the Regional Industrial Multiplier System (RIMS) and its potential usefulness to the river basin planner. Industry-specific multipliers can be calculated for a given river basin and used by the planner to estimate the impact of proposed projects and programs on the regional economy. Initial changes in regional output can be translated into changes in both employment and income.
