The “Total Economic Impact” (TEI) is calculated
by multiplying the DOI and an “input-output multiplier” to
reflect the additional benefits that come from secondary
economic activities such as boat building, production of
tin for canning, international transport, and management
services for retail distribution.

Similarly, the “wage impact”
is the product of the DOI and a “wage impact multiplier”.

The estimated TEI of US$ 2.35 billion and wage impact of US$
472 million demonstrate a much larger economic impact
that extends beyond the initial DOI of US$ 602 million and
the 75,000 people employed in BCLME fisheries, mariculture
and recreational fisheries (Figure 11) (see also appendix A).
