The economic impact methodology based on input-output model is applied to estimate the multiplicative effects. Furthemore, the empirical analysis of economic and financial indicators is done to capture the performance of steel industry in Republic of Macedonia. This type of studies based on scientific and methodological foundation is very usefull tool in creation the national industrial policy.
