Show moreThe purpose of this thesis is to present an econometric model for the region of Palm Beach County. This type of economic analysis was chosen because it captures the influence of the service and trade industries as well as the simultaneous nature of other industries which dominate the local economy. The estimation results identified the construction industry as a leading indicator of economic activity in transportation, communications, utilities, finance, insurance and real estate. This simultaneous structure of the model led to the application of various multipler analyses. It was found that local construction output affected gross regional product, local personal income and local total employment. National personal income was found to influence local trade which in turn affects levels of local output, employment and income.

Abstract/Description
-
This thesis tests whether a simple income-expenditure model is a better predictor of induced expenditure and thus income than a simple quantity theory model. A spectral analysis was performed using alternative definitions of money, income and expenditure. From the results of cross spectral analysis, it was concluded that the money supply is the better predictor of short run (8 months - 3 years) fluctuations in consumption and thus in income.
