RIMS II 花费型的项目,投资人要注意项目的还款风险。项目招的投资人很多,未必会产生足够的现金流来偿还投资人的退款要求。
RIMS II的其他模式是以酒店的入住率营业额,商铺的出租面积,直接雇佣的人数,计算出间接就业人数,这一点和IMPLAN模型相似。这种算法比花费型要保守,比较可靠些。
投资人分析区域中心项目,一定要仔细分析他们的就业报告。不研究过就业报告,就不要投资。研究以下几点:
1。以什么为INPUT来计算间接就业,比如酒店营业额,商铺出租面积,或直接雇佣的人数。
2。预期时间。这些是项目方的估算,看看是否客观。项目是否能按项目方的预定时间(2年)内产出以上INPUT所需的营业额,出租率,雇工数。
3。间接就业的范围。移民局曾经要求只认可TEA内的间接就业,现在可能接受到区域中心内的间接就业。所以投资人要看区域中心的地理范围是什么。区域中心内的间接就业人数是多少。这个范围以外的间接就业,投资人先可以忽略了。
中介一直宣传的那个系数,只是个障眼法,不是分析项目的关键。风险是在INPUT的数据是否在规定时间(2年)内达到预期。
In order to apply the RIMS II multipliers the spending data for the project or program(s) in question are required. The data have to be classified with respect to each of the following traits:
Industry Category
Spending has to be classified by spending categoryconsistent with the industry classification used by RIMS (see section below on spending categories).
Year of Expenditure
The time of expenditure needs to be specified in order to determine the time period of the economic consequences and in order to adjust the spending to 1997 dollars for use in the estimation of jobs. The RIMS models were calibrated on 1997 dollars and the estimate of jobs requires spending inputs in terms of 1997 dollars.
Location
The spending location also needs to be specified so that the multipliers for the appropriate region can be applied.
================================
The results of the analysis are expressed in terms of three measures of economic activity:
Earnings (sometimes expressed as wages and salaries),
Output (sometimes referred to as economic activity), and
Jobs.
Earnings
Earnings refers to a measure, expressed in millions of dollars, of the change in the value earnings that are
received by households from the production of regional goods and services for the time period covered by the cost estimate.
Output
This is a measure of the economic activity created by the spending. It refers to the change in the dollar value of production in all sectors of the economy to satisfy the new demands resulting from spending. Each time a dollar changes hands for products or services it increases the measure of output. By including products as well as labor, the output measure is inclusive of and typically significantly larger than the measure of earnings. Economic output is typically referred to as the Gross National Product (GNP) at the national level. The measure of output is in the same year dollars as the measure of spending used in the calculation.
Jobs
This measure refers to the employment or jobs expressed as full time person years of employment. The measure refers to person years of employment regardless of the term over which spending is aggregated in the input. Jobs are estimated by adjusting the year of spending to 1997 dollars as that is the calibration year for the multiplier used for jobs estimation. The jobs multiplier are expressed in terms of jobs per million dollars of spending.
