Abstract

This paper calculates the consumption expenditure of internal visitors in Sweden, and Swedes' expenditures on outboard tourism, according to the WTO definition of tourism expenditure. The demand-based calculations of national tourism are distributed among same-day visitors and overnight visitors, for leisure and business purposes. The supply side calculations cover the main tourism industries. Daily expenditures of domestic tourists categorized by housing type and purpose are also presented. The calculations show that the consumption expenditures of internal visitors in Sweden were approximately 65 300 M SEK in 1992, which compared to the GDP is about 4.5%. The expenditure of Swedish households on leisure trips in 1992 amounted to 66... (More)

This paper calculates the consumption expenditure of internal visitors in Sweden, and Swedes' expenditures on outboard tourism, according to the WTO definition of tourism expenditure. The demand-based calculations of national tourism are distributed among same-day visitors and overnight visitors, for leisure and business purposes. The supply side calculations cover the main tourism industries. Daily expenditures of domestic tourists categorized by housing type and purpose are also presented. The calculations show that the consumption expenditures of internal visitors in Sweden were approximately 65 300 M SEK in 1992, which compared to the GDP is about 4.5%. The expenditure of Swedish households on leisure trips in 1992 amounted to 66 544 M SEK, which is 8.6% of adjusted total private consumption. In 1993 this figure declined to 7.8%. The largest reduction was on expenditure on outboard trips.
