As investigacións iniciadas nos anos 60 que tentan determinar o impactoeconómico dos portos nas economías da súa hinterland fóronse depurando, e asmetodoloxías foron converxendo ata permitir realizar comparacións entre uns portos eoutros. No sistema portuario español leváronse a cabo importantes estudos de impactoeconómico e, entre eles, destaca o do porto de Ferrol-San Cibrao, tanto polo carácterpioneiro como pola diversidade de enfoques, como polas metodoloxías que se utilizaronpara a súa determinación. Neste traballo, considéranse os estudos máis relevantes e, parao caso do porto de Ferrol-San Cibrao, harmonízanse os datos ao ano de referencia 2016 através dos coeficientes deflatores do PIB, e realízase unha análise comparativa conrespecto aos portos estatais de características semellantes.The research initiated in the 60s in an atempt to determine the economicimpact of ports in the economies of their hinterland have been refined, and themethodologies have been converging to allow comparisons between ports.In the Spanish port system, important economic impact studies have been carried out,including the port of Ferrol-San Cibrao, both for its pioneering nature and for the diversityof approaches and methodologies that have been used for its determination. In this paper,the most relevant studies are analyzed, the data are harmonized to the reference year2016 through the deflator coefficients of the GDP, and a comparison is made in relation tothe similar characteristic state ports.

This paper examines the use of community based economic impact studies as service learning tools for undergraduate business programs.  Economic impact studies are used to measure the economic benefits of a variety of activities such as community redevelopment, tourism, and expansions of existing facilities for both private and public producers.  Economic impact studies when structured as service learning projects provide an experiential learning environment for business students, affording them with the opportunity of applying the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom while at the same time engaging in community service.  Such projects can expose students to the importance of corporate social responsibility and help involved faculty to remain current in their fields of expertise while providing pedagogical and practice oriented avenues for research.  Clients gain access to expertise in a cost effective manner.  When done effectively, service learning projects in undergraduate business programs generate goodwill and favorable publicity while helping academic institutions meet mission statements and address specific accreditation standards.

Economic Impact Studies

Economic impact studies are frequently commissioned to justify investments in sport projects. However, decisions also should include a consideration of a project’s costs since it is the net return on investment that should drive decisions. Whenever taxpayer funds are expended on a sports project there is an opportunity cost. Three types of opportunity cost are discussed. Explicit costs are those for which a government entity “writes a check.” They are comprised of event costs, land and infrastructure costs, and operations and maintenance costs. Implicit costs are those which remain “hidden” from most taxpayers: foregone property taxes, strategic underestimation of capital costs, displacement costs, and an inequitable nexus between payers and beneficiaries. External costs are those incurred by taxpayers beyond the boundaries of a local jurisdiction.
