Labor Income (Earnings) Composition
Hi:
What does the reported IMPLAN Labor Income include?
1) employee wages (or earnings for self employed)
2) employee portion of fringe benefits
3) employer portion of fringe benefits
I have assumed that it includes 1 and 2 above but excludes 3.
Is that correct?

Hi Steven, Labor Income = Employee Compensation + Proprietor Income Employee Compensation in IMPLAN is the total payroll cost of the employee paid by the employer. This includes wage and salary, all benefits (health, retirement, etc) and employer-paid payroll taxes (social security, unemployment, etc). Proprietor Income consists of payments received by self-employed individuals and unincorporated business owners, and includes the capital consumption allowance.
