Abstract

This paper discusses the use of econometric models in evaluating alternative courses of action for public investment and governmental programs. Included are an extensive statewide and regional input-output analysis of the Texas economy, a simulation model to be used by government officials for fiscal policy-making and a model which simulates the demand for and use of water resources. These models provide a means whereby government planners and policy makers can plan and understand the consequences of investing limited resources in various public programs.
