Oxford Economics conducted this research, the first such study since 2014. In 2017, the industry’s contribution of $261 billion to the US economy increased by 9.5% compared to the $240 billion generated in 2014. The entertainment industry in the United States also supports nearly 1.8 million jobs, a slight increase from the 2014 figure.

 

At the same time, the federal, and local governments have benefited from the tax revenue generated by entertainment activities by $40.8 billion. This figure has risen from the $38 billion found in the previous study.

 

Sara Slane, senior vice president of AGA's co-government, said: "Only taxes from the industry can provide enough funds to hire 692,000 new teachers."

 

“Since our last survey in 2014, the game has expanded into new markets, supplying innovative new music options and enhancing its position as a key contributor to the local and federal economy.”
