Abstract :
The energy cost of goods and services is computed, and applications are discussed. The method utilizes the data base of input-output economics, but entails additional analysis. Applications range over consumption options for individuals, business, industry, and government; from the total energy cost of bus versus auto travel to the national import-export balance.
