Regional Scenarios• Recent scenario analysis for Envision Utah has taken our

1997 UPED regional baseline and investigated different small area allocations of this baseline with other methods and models.

• The present study examines alternative demographic and economic paths for the State.

• These regional growth scenarios are a work in progress, not a new official baseline.

• We explore various possible future paths for the State’s population and economy.

Page 4: Utah 2050: Alternative Futures Pam Perlich Ross Reeve Utah Long Term Projections Program Governor’s Office of Planning & Budget May 13, 1999

Method & Timeframe

• Utilize the State’s long term simulation model: Utah Process Economic and Demographic Projection Model

• Identify high, medium, and low time paths for model exogenous variables and parameters: economic growth, fertility, life expectancy, and labor force participation

• Generate alternative growth scenarios to 2050

Page 5: Utah 2050: Alternative Futures Pam Perlich Ross Reeve Utah Long Term Projections Program Governor’s Office of Planning & Budget May 13, 1999

Long Term Simulations• This ceterus paribus analysis approach

acknowledges the uncertainty in the projections and identifies the potential range of outcomes.

• The method and time frame used here are standard practice for analogous Federal policy analysis simulations.

• GAO: The use of long term economic and demographic simulations can “help establish a long-term framework linking budget planning and long- term fiscal policy goals.”

Thirteen Scenarios• Base Case: Medium fertility, mortality, economic

growth, and labor force participation rates • Eight Ceterus Paribus Change Cases: Around base

case, as illustrated in previous slide• Zero Migration: Economic Growth just sufficient so

there is zero net employment related in-migration• Zero Economic Growth: No growth in basic (export

sector) employment• High Population Case: High Fertility, Survival,

Economic Growth, & Low Labor Force Participation• Low Population Case: Low Fertility, Survival,

Economic Growth, & High Labor Force Participation

Employment Growth Scenarios• Employment growth is the driver of the long run

population path -- it sets the extremes for total population in this analysis.

• These employment scenarios are based upon analyses of the State’s fifty year employment history.

• The future employment paths include the State’s short run forecast through 2000.

• The long-run employment scenarios start in the year 2001.

Page 14: Utah 2050: Alternative Futures Pam Perlich Ross Reeve Utah Long Term Projections Program Governor’s Office of Planning & Budget May 13, 1999

Five Employment Growth Cases• High Growth: Increasing linear increments to employment

• Medium Growth: Employment growth sufficient to generate cumulative net in-migration of 18% of the population increase from 1999 - 2050

• Low Growth: Symmetrical employment growth with high employment around medium path

• Zero In-Migration: Employment growth that generates zero net migration

• Zero Basic Employment Growth: Constant basic employment level through time

Net In-Migration

• Net in-migration contributed 18% of population increase from 1948 - 1998.

• Medium Case: Employment growth is sufficient to generate the same relative component contributions for 1999 - 2050.

Three Fertility Cases

• Low Fertility: Converge to projected national total fertility rate by 2005

• Medium Fertility: Constant at 1998 rates - 2.6 for Utah vs. about 2.0 for U.S.

• High Fertility: Maintain the difference in fertility rates (observed in 1990) between Utah and the U.S. with the national projections from 1999 to 2050.

Survival Scenarios

• Low: Survival Rates and life expectancy held constant at 1990 rates

• Medium: Converge to US rates by 2050

• High: Maintain mean difference in life expectancy observed in 1970, 1980, and 1990 over projection interval. Projected US is Census middle series.

Summary• Utah has higher rates of economic and population growth,

fertility, and survival than the nation. • Growth in the demand for Utah’s exports and the associated

increases in employment have the greatest effect on the state’s population size.

• Fertility, while affecting population size, has its greatest effects on age composition, average household size, and the components of population change.

• Survival has its greatest effects on the age composition, particularly on the number and share of the elderly population.

• Changing labor force participation rates act as a substitute for employment-related migration.
