Abstract

This study aims to assess the impact of different sectors in the Jordanian economy by using Input-Output Multipliers Analysis and how they developed. The paper attempts to prove it by using Input-Output tables of Jordan economy to the years: 1987, 2000, and 2009. To facilitate the comparison process between activities the researcher assembled and aggregated them to 15 sectors. This study applied input-output technique to determine economic effects to gauge the significance of these industries in generating Output, Income, and Employment. The Multipliers have been obtained in 2009 showed among the sectors; The Manufacture sector showed the highest output multiplier, The Services (especially finance) gained the highest income multiplier; Finally, The Construction sector has the highest Employment Multipliers.
