III. Economic Implications after 2008

After ten years, in 2013, this bill could be expected to increase employment by 15,600 workers, investment by $520.3 million, and Texas Personal Income by $978.4 million.

IV. Methodology

A Texas-specific general equilibrium model was employed in calculating the economic impacts. The model distributes the value that otherwise would have been paid/saved in taxes by businesses and/or consumers among the state's economic sectors. The revenue feedback calculation was based on the historical relationships between state tax revenues and associated economic factors.
