The intensity indicators of the physical flow accounts are simple multipliers that capture the sum of direct and indirect effects. They are based on the assumption that households are exogenous and that there is no feedback between wages and production (i.e. there is no induced effect included in the calculation).
Simple multiplier = (direct + indirect effects) / $ 1.00 exogenous final demand.
It is generally acknowledged that simple multipliers underestimate economic impacts since induced households activity is absent. They can be considered as lower bounds of multiplier effects.

Methods:
- Environmentally-extended input-output modelling:
- A series is said to be estimated by environmentally-extended input-output modelling when environmental data (e.g. energy use) are combined with the input-output model. This is possible when both data sets use the same industry classification. The input-output model is an analytical framework developed to assess the interdependence of industries in an economy. The environmentally-extended input-output model can be used to estimate direct and indirect intensities (multipliers), and to distribute industrial outputs (e.g. emissions) or inputs (e.g. water use) to the final purchasers of the goods and services that industries produce (the demand based perspective).
Additional Information:
Energy use is expressed on a net basis to avoid double-counting of electrical energy generated from fossil fuels.
