This report compares the accuracy of economic base analysis (EBA) and income expenditure analysis (IEA), two techniques commonly used in demo-economic impact analysis. Using the example of British Columbia's North East coal project (NECP), pre-project analyses were prepared based on information available when this mega-project was under construction. The pre-project projections were compared to an ex post analysis of the NECP's impacts on regional employment and population. The two techniques are compared in terms of data availability, ease of use, and relative accuracy in the case examined.
