A client in the travel industry wanted a web application that individuals could use to see how changes in travel expenditures impacted the economies in different states.
How would travel expenditures impact each state’s job market. How many new jobs would be created with increased travel expenditures? MOST Programming worked closely with the client’s team to create a web application for a dynamic travel calculator. The calculator shows past travel expenditure trends and current year travel expenditures. A sliding bar allows the user to input percent increases or decreases in travel expenditures. An algorithm calculates state and local taxes based on changes in state travel expenditures and predicts the increase or decrease in total jobs created. The calculator also shows the resulting impact to police officer, firemen and teacher jobs.
