There are three main types of multipliers used within input-output models. Since the scale of input-output scenarios often varies in geographic size as well as in time frame, these multipliers are created to apply accordingly.
Type 1: Shows industry to industry transactions, but doesn’t use induced effect. Best for large scale instances, such as dealing with the nation as a whole or broad areas of the US that are mostly self-sufficient.
Type 2: Type 1 model + household spending. Best used for state and smaller regions when looking at shorter term scenarios that are not likely to factor in amortized investment and government.
