Multipliers

Economic multipliers are most commonly used to estimate the economic impacts associated with establishing a new firm in a particular industry or with the expansion, contraction or closure of existing firms. The NWT Bureau of Statistics maintains and updates a set of NWT industry multipliers on an annual basis. These multipliers are an output from the NWT IO model.
