Synopsis
After the passage of its Motion Picture Incentive Act of 2002 and subsequent amendments, Louisiana granted tax credits for certain expenditures and payroll. This paper investigates the impact of Louisiana’s incentives program on the state’s economy over the 2002-2015 period through correlation and regression analyses. Statistically significant models were found to exist, leading the authors to conclude that the state’s incentives program performed very well.
