How visitor spending generates impact Travelers create direct economic value within a discreet group of sectors (e.g. recreation, transportation). This supports a relative proportion of jobs, wages, taxes, and GDP within each sector. Each directly affected sector also purchases goods and services as inputs (e.g. food wholesalers, utilities) into production. These impacts are called indirect impacts. Lastly, the induced impact is generated when employees whose incomes are generated either directly or indirectly by tourism, spend those incomes in the state economy. 14

Methods and data sources Domestic visitor expenditure estimates are provided by Longwoods International s representative survey of US travelers. These are broken out by sectors (lodging, transport at destination, food & beverage, retail, and recreation), by purpose (business and leisure), and by length of stay (day and overnight). Tourism Economics then adds several categories of spending to these figures: Overseas visitor spending (source: OTTI, TE) Spending on air travel which accrues to all airports and locally-based airlines Gasoline purchases by visitors (source: TE calculation) Smith Travel Research data on hotel revenues Lodging tax receipts All results are benchmarked and cross-checked against US Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Bureau of Economic Analysis data on wages and employment 20
