What modeling method allows analysts to quantify and evaluate connections between industrial sectors?

Input-Output Modeling is the correct choice because it is specifically designed to quantify and evaluate the interconnections between different industrial sectors within an economy. This method uses a matrix to represent the relationships between producers and consumers, allowing analysts to assess how changes in one sector can impact others. It effectively captures the flow of goods and services among sectors, helping planners understand how economic activities are interlinked and how they affect overall economic performance.

In contrast, while Location Quotient focuses on measuring a specific sector's concentration relative to a larger context (like a state or nation) and Shift-share analyzes the changes in economic performance of a region compared to a broader area, they do not provide the same comprehensive insight into the interactions between sectors. Sector Analysis can identify and assess industry trends but lacks the detailed quantification of sector interdependencies that Input-Output Modeling provides.
