Some out-of-state attendees may drive their own vehicle or use various ride sharing options. This study estimates that 75% of households will rent a car for this event. Rental rates for a standard size car for October 3131 have been averaged for the nine rental car companies located at the Austin -Bergstrom International Airport. This average is $67.00 per day, Projected Hotel/Motels Expenditures The average nightly hotel rate of $82.00 was obtained from Source Strategies publication purchased by the City of Round Rock and has been used to estimate hotel spending for the event.

This estimate from the Round Rock CVB is a conservative projection based on surveys of prior local events. The $70 was divided between dining, drinking, and shopping based on the following methodology. The federal General Services Administration per diem rate for food while traveling for the Austin -Round Rock metropolitan area is $59 per day. This study estimates spending on alcoholic drinks with meals to be $4 per day. This amount is lower than many other events but because this event is for college students, most of them will not be of legal age to purchase alcoholic drinks in restaurants. Projected Other Shopping Expenditures Round Rock has a variety of shopping centers in the vicinity of the Multipurpose Complex and the event hotels. Based on the spending estimate per person of $70 per day from above, after dining and alcoholic drinks with meals, it is estimated that the average spending on other shopping is $7 per day per person. Projected Eligible Taxes from Direct Expenditures The table below displays the projected direct expenditures and eligible sales taxes generated from the last day of the tournament for the 2021 Big 12 Soccer Championship on November 7th, 2021, The total projected direct expenditures resulting from the event is $289,963.20. The estimated sales tax generation is $19,558.62 in eligible state taxes and $11,78B.44 in eligible local taxes.
