Tourism income index

Tourism income index is an important means and basis to understand and analyze the tourism economic situation, which is generally expressed in monetary units.

(1) Total tourism revenue

Total tourism revenue refers to the total monetary revenue obtained by the destination country or destination in selling tourism products in a certain period of time, which reflects the overall scale and developed degree of tourism in a certain country or region and is an important comprehensive indicator. In international tourism, the total tourism income is expressed in foreign currency, which is also called the total tourism foreign exchange income. In domestic tourism, the total tourism revenue is expressed in the national currency and is still called the total tourism revenue.

(2) Per capita tourism income

Per capita tourism income refers to the average expenditure of each tourist in a certain period of time in the destination country or destination, that is, the ratio of total tourism income to the number of tourists in a certain period of time, which reflects the average consumption and stay time of tourists and is an important indicator for us to understand the development level of tourism in a certain country or place.

(3) Tourism exchange rate

These foreign exchange expenditures mainly include: importing necessary equipment and raw materials, tourism promotion expenses, salaries of foreign managers, repayment of principal and interest of foreign exchange loans, etc. Excessive foreign exchange expenditure is manifested as foreign exchange leakage. The level of tourism exchange rate is closely related to the overall situation of a country or region, reflecting the level of productivity and the degree of tourism socialization of a country or region.

Tourism exchange rate refers to the amount and proportion of foreign exchange that can be exchanged by the destination country or destination to provide unit tourism products to the international tourism market. Usually, the tourist exchange rate is consistent with the exchange rate of a country or region, and the foreign exchange rate is different in different periods, so is the tourist exchange rate.
