water industry

Hello Economist23 In the current Sectoring scheme Water and Utility Services for Maricopa county is in Sector 33. The Output value reported for this Sector is just the value of Industry Output for PRIVATE industries reporting under the NAICS codes associated to these services. You can see all the total local production of the related commodity (3033) by going to the Explore> Social Accounts> Balance Sheet (Tab), and select View By: Commodity Balance Sheet and the Industry-Institutional production tab. In your region, these services are produced by Sectors 31, 33, 432, and 12001 the latter two of which are government producers. Looking at this you may also note that the value of Industry production for Sector 33 for Commodity 3033 is not equal to the total Output of Sector 33. This is because Sector 33 produces two commodities. These can be viewed by Explore> Social Accounts> Balance Sheet (Tab), and select View By: Industry Balance Sheet and the Commodity Production tab.

Is there any way that I can recover information on the proportion of final demand on an industry level explained by water commodity? In other words, grain industry with gross regional coefficient of 0.04 for water commodity represents that 4% of total cost of producing grain output is coming from water input. Can we also get the proportion of final demand of grain industry that is coming from only water demand?

Hello economist23, If we understand your question correctly, you can find this information by going to Explore > Social Accounts > View By: Industry Balance Sheet > Commodity Demand tab. Select sector 2 from the drop-down menu and then scroll down to commodity 3033. Gross Absorption represents the amount of commodity 3033 needed per dollar of Grain Farming Output. Regional Absorption represents the amount of LOCAL commodity 3033 needed per dollar of Grain Farming Output – it can be calculated by multiplying the Gross Absorption by the RPC for commodity 3033. To see Final Demand vs. Intermediate Demand for grains, you can flip over to the Social Account Reports tab and look at the values for Intermediate Demand and Institutional Demand (aka, Final Demand) for commodity 3002.

Thank you very much for your kind explanation. Let me explain further on what we are doing. What we are trying to do is to capture the economic impact associated with the change in water price. Price is externally given in our model, but we will estimate the decrease in final demand for all industries that are using water as inputs to produce their own goods and services. In order to do this, we should know the proportion of final demand in each industry that is coming from water use, which was my original question. Do you think there is any way of recovering this type of information?

Hello economist23, It sounds link you want to know how much each industry in your area demands of water. If this is that case, the sheet that will probably best meet your needs is found in Explore>Social Accounts>Balance Sheets>View By: Commodity Balance Sheet and then select commodity 3033, and then the Industry Demand Tab. This will show you all the sectors' demand for water in your region. The Institutional Demand tab will show you how much water is demanded by households and governments in the area. The Gross Absorption will show you the percentage of total output for each Industry/Institution and the Gross Inputs will show you the dollar value for that year spent on water. The Regional Absorption/Inputs will show you the percentage of local water purchases and their value. Hopefully this is addressing your main question, if not please let us know.
