The Economic Impact of the U.S. Retail Industry

THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THE U.S. RETAIL INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY


The National Retail Federation engaged PwC to quantify the impact of the retail industry on the U.S. economy. In evaluating the retail industry's economic impacts, this report considers three separate channels -- the direct, indirect, and induced impacts -- that in aggregate provide a measure of the total economic impact of the retail industry:

Direct impact is measured as the jobs, labor income, and gross domestic product ("GDP") within the retail industry. Indirect impact is measured as the jobs, labor income, and GDP occurring in other industries due to the retail industry's purchases of inputs other than merchandise intended for resale. Induced impact is measured as the jobs, labor income, and GDP resulting from household spending of income earned either directly or indirectly from the retail industry's economic activities.

This report finds that there are over 3.6 million retail establishments (including food services and drinking places) across the country, accounting for 11.9 percent of all business establishments in the country. These retail businesses directly provided 28.1 million full-time and part-time jobs in 2009. The industry's direct labor income impact was estimated to be $770 billion or 8.7 percent of the national labor income in 2009. The industry directly added $1.2 trillion to GDP, accounting for 8.5 percent of U.S. GDP in 2009 (see Table E-1). Table E-1.

The Economic Impact of the U.S. Retail Industry

Retail Employment by Congressional District At the congressional district level, the number of jobs directly attributable to the retail industry was no less than 17,000 in any district in 2009. The retail industry directly provided 50,000 or more jobs in 373 congressional districts. The top 15 congressional districts in terms of direct retail jobs in 2009 are listed in Table E-6, below. The 14th District of New York (which includes most of the East Side of Manhattan, all of Roosevelt Island and the neighborhoods of Astoria, Long Island City, and Sunnyside in Queens) had the highest retail employment (165,366). The 8th district of New York (covering most of Manhattan's Upper West Side, most parts of Hell's Kitchen, East Village, Chelsea, SoHo, Greenwich Village, TriBeCa, Downtown Manhattan, and part of Brooklyn) had the second highest retail employment (154,644). Texas had three congressional districts among the top 15 ranked by retail employment: the 7th, 21st, and 24th.

The Economic Impact of the U.S. Retail Industry

THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THE U.S. RETAIL INDUSTRY I. Introduction

The National Retail Federation engaged PwC to quantify the impact of the retail industry on the U.S. economy. The retail industry comprises establishments engaged in retailing merchandise and rendering services incidental to the sale of merchandise. The retailing process is the final step in the distribution of merchandise. The industry comprises two main types of retailers: store and nonstore retailers. 1. Store retailers, as defined by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), operate fixed point-of-sale locations, located and designed to attract a high volume of walk-in customers. In general, retail stores have extensive displays of merchandise and use mass-media advertising to attract customers. They typically sell merchandise to the general public for personal or household consumption, but some also serve business and institutional clients. In addition to retailing merchandise, some types of store retailers are also engaged in the provision of after-sales services, such as repair and installation. 2. Nonstore retailers, like store retailers, are organized to serve the general public, but their retailing methods differ. As defined by NAICS, the establishments of this subsector reach customers and market merchandise with methods such as the broadcasting of "infomercials," the broadcasting and publishing of direct-response advertising, the publishing of paper and electronic catalogs, door-to-door solicitation, in-home demonstration, selling from portable stalls (street vendors, except food), and distribution through vending machines. In evaluating the retail industry's economic impacts, this report considers all three impacts -- direct, indirect, and induced -- that in aggregate provide a measure of the total economic impact of the retail industry. Four main metrics are used to quantify the direct economic impact of the retail industry: 1. Number of establishments: An establishment is a single physical location at which business is conducted. A business may consist of more than one establishment. 2. Employment: Jobs are positions filled by part-time and full-time employees or by self-employed individuals. 3. Labor income: This includes wages and salaries, commissions, vacation and sick-leave pay, fringe benefits, and all other forms of compensation, including employer contributions for employee pension and insurance funds and government social insurance. It also includes proprietors income for selfemployed individuals and partnerships. 4. Gross Domestic Product (GDP): Also known as margin or value added, the retail industry's GDP refers to the difference between receipts or revenues and the cost of goods sold.

The Economic Impact of the U.S. Retail Industry

The economic impact of the retail industry extends beyond the industry itself. In its role as the distributor of merchandise to the final consumer, the retail industry requires other inputs from various industries (such as Real Estate, Business Services, Finance, Accommodation, Communication Services, Transportation, and Wholesale Trade) for its operations. These industries, in turn, purchase goods and services from their supply chain, spurring further economic activities. These supply chain effects represent the retail industry's indirect economic impact. Additionally, the employees and business owners in the retail industry and its supply chain, in their role as consumers, purchase an array of goods and services, generating further demands that ripple through the economy. These represent the retail industry's induced economic impact. This study separately quantifies the industry's operational impact (due to its purchases of intermediate inputs other than merchandise intended for resale) and capital investment impact (due to its investment in new structures and equipment) at the national level. It further breaks out the industry's operational impact at the state and congressional district level.1 The rest of this report is organized as follows. Section II defines the retail industry for this study. Section III presents the retail industry's national economic impact. Section IV presents the industry's economic impact at the state level. Section V highlights the industry's economic impact at the congressional district level. A summary table for each state with its full congressional district level results is included in Appendix A. The data sources and methodology used in the impact analysis are discussed in Appendix B.

The industry's capital investment impact is not quantified at the state level due to data limitations.

Industry Definition

In the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), the retail industry is defined by two 2-digit NAICS codes: 44 and 45. In the Standard Industry Classification (SIC) system, the predecessor to the current NAICS system, the retail industry also included food services and drinking places, now classified as a service sector under NAICS 722. For this study, the retail industry is defined to include NAICS codes 44, 45 and 722, as shown in Table 1, below. Detailed NAICS descriptions follow the table. IMPLAN SECTOR Table 1. Composition of the Retail Industry in the Study NAICS Description

III. National Results


Direct Economic Impact The direct economic impact is measured as the jobs, labor income, GDP and number of establishments within the retail industry. Table 2 shows the direct economic impact of the retail industry relative to the national economy in terms of employment, labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as proprietors' income), GDP, and the number of establishments. In 2009, there were more than 3.6 million retail establishments (including food services and drinking places) across the country, counting both those with paid employees and nonemployers (which primarily consist of self-employed individuals operating small unincorporated businesses). These businesses accounted for 11.9 percent all business establishments in the country in 2009. The retail industry directly provided 28.1 million jobs for American workers (accounting for 16.3 percent of the national total). The industry also directly paid out $770 billion in wages and salaries and fringe benefits and proprietors' income (8.7 percent of the national total), and generated $1.2 trillion in GDP (8.5 percent of the national total).

The Economic Impact of the U.S. Retail Industry

Total Economic Impact The total economic impact we have measured includes the direct impact (the jobs, labor income, and GDP within the retail industry), the indirect impact (the jobs, labor income, and GDP occurring in other industries due to the retail industry's purchases of inputs other than merchandise intended for resale), and the induced impact (the jobs, labor income, and GDP resulting from household spending of income earned either directly or indirectly from the retail industry's economic activities). PwC estimates that at the national level, the retail industry's operations directly and indirectly generated 41.0 million full-time and part-time jobs, provided $1.45 trillion in labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits, as well as proprietors' income), and added $2.42 trillion to the national GDP in 2009. Further, the industry's capital investment of $69.8 billion in 2009 supported an additional 0.6 million jobs, with an associated $36.1 billion in labor income and $60.4 billion in GDP. Combining both operational and capital investment impacts, the retail industry's total employment impact to the national economy amounted to 41.6 million full-time and part-time jobs in 2009, accounting for 24.1 percent of the total employment in the country (see Table 5). The industry's total impact on labor income through its operational spending and capital investment was estimated to be $1.49 trillion, or 16.9 percent of national labor income. The industry's total GDP impact was $2.48 trillion, accounting for 17.6 percent of U.S. GDP in 2009. Table 5.

Table 6 shows the retail industry's indirect and induced impacts by sector at the national level. PwC estimates that in addition to the 28.1 million direct jobs in the retail industry, the industry's operations and capital investment supported 12.9 million indirect and induced jobs across many sectors of the U.S. economy in 2009. The service sector accounts for the largest number of indirect and induced jobs attributable to the retail industry's operations and capital spending (7.0 million) in 2009, followed by Finance, Insurance, Real Estate, Rental and Leasing (2.2 million), and Manufacturing (1.2 million). The industry's estimated national indirect and induced labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as proprietors' income) was $717 billion and the indirect and induced value added was $1.3 trillion in 2009.

The retail industry's economic impact reaches all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The impact varies from state to state, depending on factors such as each state's industry mix, wage structure, spending and saving patterns, and connections to other economies. The state-level impact presented below reflects the industry's operational impact only (the industry's capital investment impact is not quantified at the sub-national level due to data limitations). Direct Economic Impact Table 7a shows the direct employment, labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as proprietors' income) and GDP impacts of the retail industry, as well as the number of retail establishments by state, where the states are shown alphabetically. Table 7b is the same as Table 7a, except that the states are ranked by the retail industry's direct employment. The number of jobs directly attributable to the retail industry's operations ranged from 61,000 (Wyoming) to over 3.1 million (California). The top 15 states, in terms of the number of retail jobs in 2009 were California, Texas, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, North Carolina, New Jersey, Virginia, Massachusetts, Indiana, and Tennessee. Combined these states account for nearly 65 percent of the total national retail employment. The total number of retail establishments ranged from 8,300 (Wyoming) to over 400,000 (California). The top 15 states, in terms of the total number of retail establishments in 2009 were California, Texas, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, New Jersey, Virginia, Tennessee, Indiana, and Washington. Combined these states account for nearly 65 percent of the total retail establishments in the country. Table 7c shows per capita GDP directly attributable to the retail industry's operations in 2009 by state, ranked by per capita retail GDP. The top 15 states using this metric were New Hampshire ($5,667), District of Columbia ($5,278), Connecticut ($5,048), Nevada ($4,987), Hawaii ($4,968), Vermont ($4,749), Alaska ($4,672), Maine ($4,658), New Jersey ($4,587), Massachusetts ($4,447), Washington ($4,445), Wyoming ($4,334), North Dakota ($4,292), Delaware ($4,284), and California ($4,263). Table 7d shows per capita labor income directly attributable to the retail industry's operations in 2009 by state, ranked by per capita retail labor income. The top 15 states using this metric were District of Columbia ($3,634), New Hampshire ($3,504), Nevada ($3,330), Hawaii ($3,286), Connecticut ($3,069), Alaska ($2,984), Vermont ($2,945), Maine ($2,879), New Jersey ($2,838), Massachusetts ($2,827), Wyoming ($2,797), North Dakota ($2,775), Delaware ($2,773), Washington ($2,725), and California ($2,721).

The Economic Impact of the U.S. Retail Industry

Total Economic Impact Table 8a shows the retail industry's state-by-state total operational impact (direct, indirect, and induced) in terms of jobs, labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as proprietors' income), and GDP, where the states are shown alphabetically. Table 8b is the same as Table 8a, except that the states are ranked in order of the industry's total employment impact as a percent of each state's total employment. The state-level results, as explained earlier, do not include the economic impact of the industry's capital investment in 2009. As a percent of each state's total employment, the retail industry's total employment impact from its operations ranged from 11.1 percent (the District of Columbia) to 27.3 percent (New Hampshire) in 2009. The retail industry directly and indirectly supported 20.0 percent or more of the total employment in all 50 states in 2009, with only the District of Columbia registering 11.1 percent. As a percent of each state's total labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as proprietors' income), the labor income from the total jobs directly and indirectly supported by the retail industry's operations ranged from 6.1 percent (the District of Columbia) to one in every five dollars of labor income (Florida) in 2009. The retail industry's total labor income impact exceeded 13.0 percent of the state total in all 50 states. As a percent of each state's economy, the retail industry's total GDP impact from its operations ranged from 7.0 percent (the District of Columbia) to one in every five dollars of GDP (New Hampshire) in 2009. The retail industry's total GDP impact accounted for at least 14.0 percent of the state total in all 50 states.

Appendix B: Data Sources and Methodology


This section describes the data sources and methodology used to derive the results for the study. It first discusses the data sources PwC utilized to develop estimates of the retail industry's direct economic impacts. It then describes the development of the indirect and induced economic impact estimates. I. Data Sources PwC developed its estimates of the retail industry's economic impacts using data from a number of sources: The IMPLAN Model Data Files - IMPLAN is a well-known economic impact modeling system developed by the Minnesota IMPLAN Group. The model is primarily based on government data sources, such as the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the U.S. Census Bureau, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The IMPLAN model can address a wide range of impact topics in a given region (county, State, or the country as a whole) and is built around an input -output table that relates the purchases that each industry has made from other industries to the value of the output of each industry. The IMPLAN sectors that correspond to PwC's definition of the retail industry are shown in Table 1 of the report. This study uses the latest IMPLAN database (released in October 2010) for 2009 economic activity. Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) This data source, produced by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), provides comprehensive information on employment and wages at the national, state, and local levels for workers covered by state unemployment insurance programs. In addition to data on employment and wages, QCEW also reports counts of establishments with paid employees by detailed industry sector. Industry classifications are based on the 2007 North American Industry Classification System ("NAICS"). Data from this source pertain to 2009 employment and wages. Nonemployer Statistics (NES) Released annually by the U.S. Census Bureau, NES contains data on the number of establishments that have no paid employees and annual business receipts of $1,000 or more. Nonemployers are typically selfemployed individuals or partnerships operating unincorporated businesses. Data are reported at the national, state, and county levels and by detailed industry, based on 2007 NAICS codes. Data from this source pertain to nonemployer operations in 2008 (the most recent year for which data are currently available), and are adjusted to 2009 levels as described below. Regional Economic Information System ("REIS") This data source, produced by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis ("BEA"), provides information on employment and compensation by industry at the state and local levels. BEA produces this information based by compiling information collected by other organizations, both governmental and private. Industry classifications are based on 2007 NAICS codes. Employment in REIS includes both full-time and parttime employment. Unlike QCEW, employment figures in the REIS database

Annual Capital Expenditure Survey ("ACES") Released annually by the U.S. Census Bureau, ACES provides data on capital spending for new and used structures and equipment by U.S. nonfarm businesses with and without employees. Data have been collected annually beginning with data for 1994. For quantifying the economic impact of the retail industry's capital investment, its capital spending is translated into purchases of capital assets by type through the use of the so-called "capital flow matrix" from the U.S. Department of Commerce. Data from this source pertain to 2009 capital spending. Zip Code Business Patterns ("ZBP") Zip Code Business Patterns, released annually by the U.S. Census Bureau, provides counts of establishments by employment-size class (e.g., fewer than 5 employees, 5 to 10, etc.) at the 6-digit NAICS level. Data from this source pertain to 2008, the most recent year for which data are currently available. Election Data Services five-digit ZIP+DISTRICT file ("EDS") Election Data Services Inc. is a political consulting firm specializing in redistricting, election administration, and the analysis and presentation of census and political data. Among other services, EDS provides political information products that include congressional and legislative district boundary files such as their ZIP+DISTRICT data files which link postal zip codes to congressional and legislative districts. The EDS data, along with data from the U.S. Postal Service, were used to develop mappings of zip codes to counties and congressional districts.

II. Estimates of Direct Economic Impacts PwC has estimated the retail industry's direct economic impacts in terms of employment, labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as proprietors' income), GDP, and the number of retail establishments (including food services and drinking places). Retail Employment, Labor Income and GDP Retail employment, labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as proprietors' income), and GDP at the national, state, and congressional district level were obtained from the IMPLAN input-output modeling system. PwC constructed customized IMPLAN economic impact models for the United States, the 50 states and the District of Columbia, and the 436 congressional districts. For developing the congressional district models, PwC obtained a mapping of all the zip codes in the U.S. to congressional districts from EDS. In cases where a particular zip code falls within more than one congressional district, we have assumed that employment in the zip code is divided equally across all affected congressional districts. This mapping was then merged with information from the U.S. Postal Service that lists all zip codes in the U.S. along with the state and county in which the zip code is located. Combining the two datasets provides a list of zip codes in every county, along with the congressional district that corresponds to a particular zip code. To determine the share of a countys employment in a particular industry that is located in a particular zip code and thus in a given congressional district, the ZBP data were used.

ZBP provides data on the total number of establishments for more than 40,000 5-digit zip code areas nationwide. In addition, ZBP provides the number of establishments by employment-size class by detailed (6-digit NAICS) industry for each zip code. Using the establishment data, we constructed estimates of employment by zip code by multiplying the number of establishments in a given size class by the midpoint of that size class and summing over all size classes. The resulting database was then merged with the zip code-to-county-to-congressional district mapping mentioned above. Next employment was aggregated first by county and then by congressional districts within a given county. Finally, allocation percentages were created by dividing ZBP employment for a given congressional district within a county by total ZBP employment in the county. The result was a list of percentages mapping employment in every county to each congressional district that falls in whole or in part within that county. These allocation percentages were used to develop IMPLAN congressional district models. Retail Establishments Retail businesses with paid employees For retail businesses with paid employees, PwC obtained national and state-level establishment counts from QCEW by detailed (3-digit) NAICS code for 2009.2 State-level establishment counts were then allocated across the congressional districts in a given state using data from the ZBP. In particular, data on retail establishments were obtained by zip code from the 2008 edition of the ZBP. Each zip code was mapped to the appropriate congressional district (or districts) using the mapping obtained from EDS.3 ZBP retail establishment counts were aggregated first by state and then by congressional districts within a given state. Allocation percentages were then created by dividing the number of ZBP retail establishments in a given congressional district within a state by total ZBP retail establishments in the state. The result was a list of percentages mapping retail establishments in each state to each congressional district in that state. These allocation percentages were applied to the state-level establishment counts for 2009 from the QCEW to derive the estimated count of retail establishments by congressional district. Retail businesses without paid employees These establishments, often referred to as nonemployers, are typically small sole proprietorships or partnerships operating unincorporated businesses. According to the Census Bureau, there were 2.1 million nonemployers in the retail industry (including food services and drinking places) in 2008, the most recent year for which data were available. PwC obtained counts of establishments by 3 digit NAICS industry at the national, state, and county levels from the 2008 edition of Nonemployer Statistics. Data from the REIS database were used to obtain implied growth rate for nonemployers in the retail industry between 2008 and 2009. These growth rates were used to estimate the number of nonemployer establishments in 2009. This calculation was done separately for each state and for the nation as a whole. The state-level estimates were then scaled to match the national total.

Due to minor differences between the sum of the state-level data and the national establishment counts for certain industries, the state data were summed to derive the national level estimates. 3 If a particular zip code is split across multiple congressional districts, it was assumed that the establishments resident in that zip code are split equally across all congressional districts in that zip code. For example, if there were 10 retail establishments in a zip code which was split across two congressional districts, 5 establishments were mapped to each of the congressional districts.

At the national and state levels, the NES data were complete for all relevant industries. However, at the county level some data are suppressed for disclosure reasons. To overcome this issue, PwC used a standard raking procedure to fill in the missing values. For allocating the county-level nonemployer retail establishment counts across congressional districts, we first mapped the ZBP retail establishment data to the county level using data obtained from the U.S. Postal Service and to the congressional district using the mapping obtained from EDS. Next the ZBP retail establishment counts were aggregated first by county and then by congressional districts within a given county. Allocation percentages were then created by dividing the number of ZBP retail establishments for a given congressional district within a county by total ZBP retail establishments in the county. The result was a list of percentages mapping retail establishments in every county to each congressional district that falls in whole or in part within that county. The allocation percentages were applied to the county-level retail establishment estimates from the raking procedure described above to derive estimates of the number of nonemployer retail establishments by congressional district for 2008. These estimates were then scaled to match the state totals of nonemployer retail establishments for 2009. III. Estimates of Indirect and Induced Economic Impacts The initial round of output, income, and employment generated by retail operations leads to successive rounds of re-spending in the chain of production. Such indirect and induced economic impacts by the retail industry can be measured using various approaches. The most common is multiplier analysis. In broad terms, a multiplier is an index that indicates the overall change in the level of economic activity that results from a given initial change. It effectively adds up all the successive rounds of re-spending, based on a number of assumptions that are embedded in the method of estimation. There are different methods available for calculating multipliers. The method used in this report is input-output analysis. It is the most commonly used approach in regional economic impact studies. The input-output model developed by the Minnesota IMPLAN Group is one of the best known input-output models for regional economic studies in the United States and is widely used by government, academics and private-sector researchers. The IMPLAN models are built around an "input-output" table that relates the purchases that each industry has made from other industries to the value of the output of each industry. To meet the demand for goods and services from an industry, purchases are made in other industries according to the patterns recorded in the input-output table. These purchases in turn spark still more purchases by the industry's suppliers, and so on. Additionally, employees and business owners make personal purchases out of the additional income that is generated by this process, sending more new demands rippling through the economy. Multipliers describe these iterations. The Type I multiplier measures the direct and indirect effects of a change in economic activity. It captures the inter-industry effects only, i.e., industries buying from local industries. The Type II (Social Accounting Matrix or SAM) multiplier captures the direct and indirect effects and, in addition, it also reflects induced effects (i.e., changes in spending from households as income increases or decreases due to the changes in production). The indirect and induced impacts by the retail industry on other sectors of the economy in terms of employment, labor income (including wages and salaries and benefits as well as

proprietors' income), and contribution to GDP were calculated through the multiplier process built in each model.4 For this study, PwC built customized IMPLAN input-output models for the national economy and each state or congressional district to calculate the industry's indirect and induced economic impact in each study area in terms of employment, labor income, and GDP. Because IMPLAN regional models capture only the indirect and induced effects within a region, the indirect and induced effects crossing state borders ("cross-state spillover effects") are not captured by the IMPLAN state models. As such, if not adjusted, the state-level indirect and induced impacts calculated by the IMPLAN state models would not add up to the overall impact captured by the national model, which includes the cross-state effects. PwC allocated the cross-state indirect and induced employment, labor income, and GDP effects by industry across the 50 states and the District of Columbia in proportion to each state's share of the total national employment, labor income, and GDP in each industry. The state indirect and induced effects reported throughout this study include such allocation of the cross-state spillover effects. Likewise, in a state with multiple congressional districts, the indirect and induced effects captured in each congressional district model show only the impact of retailing within the congressional district. Cross-district "spillover" effects by industry were allocated within a state in proportion to each congressional districts share of that industry within the state.

Because the IMPLAN models are used for total impact analysis (as opposed to marginal impact analysis) in this study, necessary adjustments are made to the initial indirect and induced impact estimates to prevent double-counting. For instance, any indirect or induced effects from the initial estimates for IMPLAN sectors that are fully mapped to the retail industry are removed.
