Came across a news article that was released today (1/21/14) headlined, "Reports Conflict On Impact of NC Film Incentives." Apparently one of the statistics from another article I posted, the one regarding the study showing the $10 million economic impact for the Cape Fear Region, was not quite accurate. The article states,
"That study shows that an estimated 4,000 jobs were created by the film
industry in 2012, but those jobs cost state taxpayers about $18,500 each. While the industry had a $400 million impact statewide, the state's
general fund lost more than $60 million on the tax credit."
What to make of that...
