Abstract: To reveal safety input-output relationship for scenic spots, a model for evaluation of safety economic benefits of scenic spots was built on the basis of the theory of C-D production function. For building the model, variables of safety economic contribution rate including safety fund's economic contribution rate, safety labor's economic contribution rate and safety technique's economic contribution rate were introduced, and the ratio method was used to quantify the safety economic benefits. The model was tested by using data obtained from a certain scenic spot in China. The results show that this model can satisfy the basic requirement of the quantitative analysis of safety economic benefits of scenic spots, and that the safety economic benefits of the scenic spot are greater than 1 proving that the safety investment has an important contribution to increasing the total economic output of the scenic spot.

Key words: scenic spot, Cobb-Douglas(C-D) production function, safety economic contribution rate, safety economic benefit, evaluation model
