I was thinking a cash flow analysis, but that's more for looking at the actual inflows and outflows of cash. For this, we need to predict future revenue, so a regression makes sense.

I'm not sure about that. I think it could also be B) a cash flow analysis, as it involves tracking the flow of money in and out of the government.

I agree with Selma. Regression analysis would be the best method to estimate sales tax revenue based on population growth, housing, and employment data.

A regression analysis sounds like the way to go here. You'd be able to model the relationship between population, housing, and employment data to estimate the sales tax revenue.
