GOODS AND SERVICES ACCOUNT (0)

  • 8.78The purpose of the goods and services account is to show, by product group and for the total economy, the supply of products and their uses. The account is not part of the sequence of accounts, but rather an underpinning identity between the supply and use of products in the economy. It represents at aggregate level the matching of supply and use of products in the rows of the supply and use tables.
  • 8.79It therefore shows, by product group and for the total economy, the resources (output and imports) and the uses of goods and services (intermediate consumption, final consumption, gross fixed capital formation, changes in inventories, acquisitions less disposals of valuables, and exports).
  • 8.80Given the way in which output is valued at basic prices and uses at purchasers' prices, taxes (less subsidies) on products must be included in the resources section.
  • 8.81Uses are recorded on the right-hand side of the goods and services account and resources on the left, i.e. on the opposite side from that used in the current accounts for the institutional sectors, since the product flows are the counterparts of the monetary flows.
  • 8.82The goods and services account is by definition in balance and, therefore, has no balancing item.

INTEGRATED ECONOMIC ACCOUNTS

  • 8.83The integrated economic accounts give a concise overview of the accounts of an economy, namely the current accounts, accumulation accounts and balance sheets.
  • They bring together in the same table the accounts of all the institutional sectors, the total economy and the rest of the world, and balance all the flows and all the assets and liabilities. They also enable the aggregates to be read off directly.
  • 8.84In the table of integrated economic accounts, uses, assets and changes in assets are recorded on the left-hand side, while resources, liabilities, changes in liabilities and net worth are recorded on the right-hand side.
  • 8.85To make the table readable while giving a picture of the whole economic process, the levels of aggregation used are the highest compatible with an understanding of the structure of the system.
  • 8.86The columns in the table represent the institutional sectors, namely: non-financial corporations, financial corporations, general government, non-profit institutions serving households, and households. There are also a column for the total economy, a column for the rest of the world, and a column which balances uses and resources of goods and services.
  • 8.87The rows in the table represent the various categories of transactions, assets and liabilities, balancing items and certain aggregates

AGGREGATES

  • 8.88The aggregates are summary indicators of the result of the activity of the total economy and key magnitudes for purposes of macroeconomic analysis and comparisons over time and space.
Gross domestic product at market prices (GDP)
  • 8.89Gross domestic product at market prices is the final result of the production activity of resident producer units. It can be defined in three ways:
  • (a) production approach: GDP is the sum of gross value added of the various institutional sectors or the various industries plus taxes and less subsidies on products (which are not allocated to sectors and industries). It is also the balancing item in the total economy production account;
  • (b) expenditure approach: GDP is the sum of final uses of goods and services by resident institutional units (final consumption and gross capital formation), plus exports and minus imports of goods and services;
  • (c) income approach: GDP is the sum of uses in the total economy generation of income account (compensation of employees, taxes on production and imports less subsidies, gross operating surplus and mixed income of the total economy).
  • 8.90By deducting consumption of fixed capital from GDP, we obtain net domestic product at market prices (NDP).
Operating surplus of the total economy
  • 8.91The gross (or net) operating surplus of the total economy is the sum of the gross (or net) operating surpluses of the various industries or the various institutional sectors.
Mixed income of the total economy
  • 8.92The gross (or net) mixed income of the total economy is identical to the gross (or net) mixed income of the households sector.
Entrepreneurial income of the total economy
  • 8.93The gross (or net) entrepreneurial income of the total economy is the sum of the gross (or net) entrepreneurial incomes of the various sectors.
National income (at market prices)
  • 8.94Gross (or net) national income (at market prices) represents total primary income receivable by resident institutional units: compensation of employees, taxes on production and imports less subsidies, property income (receivable less payable), (gross or net) operating surplus and (gross or net) mixed income.
  • Gross national income (at market prices) equals GDP minus primary income payable by resident institutional units to non-resident institutional units plus primary income receivable by resident institutional units from the rest of the world.
  • National income is not a production concept but an income concept, which is more significant if expressed in net terms, i.e. after deduction of the consumption of fixed capital.
National disposable income
  • 8.95Gross (or net) national disposable income is the sum of the gross (or net) disposable incomes of the institutional sectors. Gross (or net) national disposable income equals gross (or net) national income (at market prices) minus current transfers (current taxes on income, wealth etc., social contributions, social benefits and other current transfers) payable to non-resident units, plus current transfers receivable by resident units from the rest of the world.
Saving
  • 8.96This aggregate measures the portion of national disposable income that is not used for final consumption expenditure. Gross (or net) national saving is the sum of the gross (or net) savings of the various institutional sectors.
Current external balance
  • 8.97The balancing item in the external account of primary income and current transfers represents the surplus (if it is negative) or the deficit (if it is positive) of the total economy on its current transactions (trade in goods and services, primary incomes, current transfers) with the rest of the world
Net lending (+) or borrowing (–) of the total economy
  • 8.98The net lending (+) or borrowing (–) of the total economy is the sum of the net lending or borrowing of the institutional sectors. It represents the net resources that the total economy makes available to the rest of the world (if it is positive) or receives from the rest of the world (if it is negative). The net lending (+) or borrowing (–) of the total economy is equal but of opposite sign to the net borrowing (–) or lending (+) of the rest of the world.
Net worth of the total economy
  • 8.99The net worth of the total economy is the sum of the net worth of the institutional sectors. It represents the value of the non-financial assets of the total economy minus the balance of financial assets and liabilities of the rest of the world.
General government expenditure and revenue

General government expenditure and revenue are defined by reference to a list of the ESA categories.

  • 8.100Government expenditure comprises the following ESA categories, recorded under the use side of general government accounts, with the exception of D.3 which is recorded under the resource side of general government accounts:
  • P.2 Intermediate consumption
  • P.5 Gross capital formation
  • D.1 Compensation of employees
  • D.29 Other taxes on production, payable
  • D.3 Subsidies, payable
  • D.4 Property income, payable
  • D.5 Current taxes on income, wealth, etc.
  • D.62 Social benefits other than social transfers in kind
  • D.632 Social transfers in kind - purchased market production
  • D.7 Other current transfers
  • D.8 Adjustment for the change in pension entitlements
  • D.9p Capital transfers, payable
  • NP Acquisitions less disposals of non-produced assets
  • Government revenue comprises the following ESA categories, recorded under the resource side of general government accounts, with the exception of D.39 which is recorded under the use side of general government accounts:
  • P.11 Market output
  • P.12 Output for own final use
  • P.131 Payments for non-market output
  • D.2 Taxes on production and imports, receivable
  • D.39 Other subsidies on production, receivable
  • D.4 Property income, receivable
  • D.5 Current taxes on income, wealth, etc.
  • D.61 Net social contributions
  • D.7 Other current transfers
  • D.9r Capital transfers, receivable
  • By definition, the difference between general government revenue and general government expenditure is net lending (+)/net borrowing (–) of the general government sector.
  • The transactions D.41 (interest), D.73 (current transfers within general government), D.92 (investment grants) and D.99 (other capital transfers) are consolidated. The other transactions are not consolidated.

CHAPTER 9

SUPPLY AND USE TABLES AND THE INPUT-OUTPUT FRAMEWORK

INTRODUCTION

  • 9.01The purpose of this Chapter is to provide an overview of supply and use tables and of the input-output framework.
  • 9.02The core of the input-output framework is the supply and use tables in current prices and prices of the previous year. The framework is completed by the symmetric input-output tables which are derived from the supply and use tables by using assumptions or additional data.
  • The supply and use and symmetric input-output tables can be extended and modified for specific purposes such as productivity accounts, labour accounts, quarterly accounts, regional accounts and environmental accounts in monetary or physical terms.
  • 9.03Supply and use tables are matrices describing the values of transactions in products for the national economy categorised by product type and industry. These tables show:
  • (a) the structure of the costs of production, and the income generated in the production process;
  • (b) the flows of goods and services produced within the national economy;
  • (c) the flows of goods and services between the domestic economy and the rest of the world; for analysis in a European context, a distinction is required between intra-EU flows and flows with countries outside the EU.
  • 9.04A supply table shows the supply of goods and services by product and by producing industry, and distinguishes supply amongst domestic industries and imports. A schematic outline of a supply table is given in Table 9.1.

Table 9.1 —  Schematic outline of a supply table

Supplies Producing industries Rest of the world Totals
Products Output values Import values Total supply by product
Totals Total industry output Total imports Total supply
  • 9.05A use table shows the use of goods and services categorised by product and by type of use. The uses shown in the columns are as follows:
  • (a) intermediate consumption by industry;
  • (b) final consumption expenditure: households, government and NPISH;
  • (c) gross capital formation; and
  • (d) exports.
  • In the columns under the intermediate consumption by industry, the table shows the components of gross value-added, as follows:
  • (a) compensation of employees;
  • (b) other taxes less subsidies on production;
  • (c) net mixed income, net operating surplus and consumption of fixed capital.
  • A schematic outline of a use table is given in Table 9.2 below.

Components of value added Compensation of employees Other taxes less subsidies Net operating surplus Consumption of fixed capital
  • 9.06In the supply and use tables the following identities apply:
  • (a) for each industry, output equals intermediate consumption plus gross value added;
  • (b) for each product, supply equals the sum of all uses, shown in balanced rows in the supply and use framework. This identity is valid only when supply and use are on the same valuation basis, i.e. both at purchasers' prices or both at basic prices (see paragraphs 9.30 to 9.33). Accordingly, for each product: supply at purchasers' prices is equal to output of the product at basic prices plus imports at basic prices plus trade and transport margins plus taxes less subsidies on products which is equal to use of the product at purchasers' prices, which is equal to intermediate demand for the product plus final consumption expenditure plus gross capital formation plus exports. At the level of the total economy, total intermediate demand is equal to total intermediate consumption, trade and transport margins sum to zero over the whole economy as they are matched by the output of the margin industries, and so this identity can be stated as: output + imports + taxes on products less subsidies on products = Intermediate consumption + final consumption +gross capital formation + exports therefore output – intermediate consumption + taxes on products less subsidies on products = final consumption + gross capital formation + exports less imports which shows the equivalence of the production and expenditure approaches to measuring GDP;
  • (c) gross value-added as the difference between output and intermediate consumption by industry. It is identical to the sum of the incomes generated. So gross value-added equals the sum of compensation of employees, consumption of fixed capital, net operating surplus/mixed income, and other taxes less subsidies on production. This enables the consistency of the income approach to measuring GDP to be checked with the production approach.
  • 9.07Supply and use tables are the central framework for industry analyses, such as analysis of output, value added, compensation of employees, employment, operating surplus/mixed income, taxes (less subsidies) on production, gross fixed capital formation, consumption of fixed capital and capital stock.
  • 9.08The supply and use tables contain the flows in the following accounts:
  • (a) the goods and services account;
  • (b) the production account;
  • (c) the generation of income account.
  • These accounts show the generation of income and the supply and use of goods and services by institutional sector. The supply and use tables can complement this information by showing a breakdown by industry and by showing volume and price changes. The information by institutional sector in the sector accounts and the information by industry in the supply and use tables can be linked by a cross-classification table such as that given in Table 9.3 below.

  • 9.09A symmetric input-output table is shown in Table 9.4, and is a matrix showing how supply matches uses using a product-by-product or industry-by-industry categorisation of output and the detailed transactions of intermediate consumption and final uses. There is one major conceptual difference between a symmetric input-output table and a use table: in the use table, the entries show how products are used by industries in intermediate consumption, whereas in a symmetric input-output table there are two alternative presentations:
  • (a) the entries show how products are used as intermediate consumption to make products; or
  • (b) the entries show how the outputs of industry are used in the intermediate consumption of other industries to create the industrial output.
  • Accordingly, in a symmetric input-output table either a product or an industry classification is employed for both rows and columns.

  • 9.10Most statistical information that can be obtained from producer units indicates what type of products they have produced and sold and, usually in less detail, what type of products they have bought and used. The format of the supply and use tables is designed to fit in with this type of statistical information (i.e. products used by industry).
  • 9.11By contrast, information of a product-by-product or industry-by-industry nature as required by the symmetric input-output table is not often available. For example, surveys of industries usually provide information about the type of products used in production, and about the products produced and sold. Information on inputs used in making specific products is usually not available.
  • 9.12Information arranged in the form of supply and use tables is the starting point for constructing the more analytical form of symmetric input-output tables. The industry by product information in the supply and use tables can be converted into symmetric tables, by adding extra information on the input structures, or by assuming identical input structures or market shares by product or by industry.
  • 9.13Supply and use tables and the input-output framework combine three different roles:
  • — description,
  • — statistical tool,
  • — tool for analysis.

DESCRIPTION

  • 9.14Supply and use tables give a systematic description of the generation of income and supply of product, and use by industry. Developments of the inputs and outputs of production processes of individual industries are shown in the context of the national economy, i.e. related to the production processes of other domestic industries and the rest of the world and final consumption expenditure.
  • A major role of supply and use tables is to show changes in the structure of the economy, e.g. changes in the importance of various industries, changes in the inputs used and outputs produced and changes in the composition of final consumption expenditure, gross capital formation, imports and exports. Such changes may reflect developments such as globalisation, outsourcing, innovation and changes in labour costs, taxes, oil prices and exchange rates.
  • Supply and use tables in prices of the previous year are used to compile GDP volume growth statistics, for describing changes in economic structure in nominal or volume terms. They also provide a framework in which to present national price changes and changes in labour costs.

STATISTICAL TOOL

  • 9.15Using information on production, expenditure and income in the construction of supply and use tables, and reconciling inconsistent estimates, generates a reliable and balanced set of national accounts, including the estimates of key aggregates such as GDP in current prices and prices of the previous year.
  • 9.16In measuring GDP at market prices, three basic approaches can be adopted: the production approach, the expenditure approach and the income approach. These three different approaches are used in the compilation of the supply and use tables as follows:
  • (a) according to the production approach, GDP at market prices is equal to output at basic prices minus intermediate consumption at purchasers' prices, plus taxes (less subsidies) on products;
  • (b) according to the expenditure approach, GDP at market prices is equal to the sum of final use categories minus imports: final consumption expenditure + gross capital formation + exports – imports;
  • (c) according to the income approach, GDP at market prices is equal to the sum of compensation of employees, consumption of fixed capital, other taxes less subsidies on production and net operating surplus/mixed income, plus taxes less subsidies on products.
  • A single estimate of GDP at market prices is derived when the supply and use tables are balanced.
  • 9.17The supply and use tables are, in particular, useful for estimating GDP at market prices according to the production approach and expenditure approach. Major data sources for this are business surveys and administrative data such as VAT records and excise duties. Supply and use tables are used to combine information from the production and expenditure approaches by calculating and balancing supply and use at the product level. In this method, supply of a specific product is calculated and allocated to various uses, such as final consumption expenditure of households, intermediate consumption and exports. The income method does not provide the same robust balancing exercise, as operating surplus and mixed income are usually estimated as a residual on the basis of information from the other two approaches. However, the income method improves the balancing when the structure of the factor income components can be estimated. The consistency of supply and use tables with the sector accounts can be checked through linkage tables as shown in Table 9.3. This confrontation can help in the estimation of GDP at market prices, by comparing information from the profit-and-loss accounts of companies with the equivalent industry estimates.
  • 9.18The supply and use tables serve a variety of statistical purposes:
  • (a) identifying gaps and inconsistencies in data sources;
  • (b) making estimates by residual, for example estimating the final consumption of specific products as a residual after other uses of the products have been allocated;
  • (c) making estimates by extrapolating figures from a base period to later periods for which less reliable information is available. For example, annual figures may be estimated on the basis of the detailed supply and use figures for a benchmark year, and later quarterly figures can be estimated by extrapolating from the reference period;
  • (d) checking and improving the consistency, plausibility and completeness of figures in the supply and use tables and derived figures such as those in the production accounts. To this end, the balancing process is not limited to supply and use tables at current prices:
  • (1) with the aid of the tables such as Table 9.3 showing the linkage with the sector accounts, a direct comparison can be made between production, expenditure and income estimates from the supply and use system, and those from independent sources used in the sector accounts. Reconciliation at this stage guarantees that, following the supply and use balancing process, consistency is obtained between the supply and use tables and the sector accounts;
  • (2) deriving symmetric input-output tables from the supply and use tables can give feedback revealing inconsistencies and weaknesses in the supply and use tables.
  • (3) by compiling supply and use tables at current prices and in volume terms for two or more years, estimates of changes in volumes, values and prices can be balanced simultaneously: compared to compiling and balancing supply and use tables for a single year in isolation at current prices only, this is a major extension of the effectiveness of the supply and use framework;
  • (e) weighting and calculation of index numbers and price and volume measures, e.g. of GDP by deflating final uses by product or of GDP by applying the double-deflation method by industry. Deflation is carried out at the lowest possible level of aggregation of transactions, consistent with reliable estimates of price movements, for the following reasons:
  • (1) generally speaking, price and volume indicators will be more representative at a low level of aggregation;
  • (2) quality change can be measured better at a lower level of aggregation, e.g. changes in the composition of the supply or use of a product group can be taken into account;
  • (3) available price indices from price statistics are often of the Laspeyres type. The objection that they are applied in place of the theoretically more appropriate Paasche type is less severe if they are used at a low level of aggregation.
  • Balancing of supply and use of a product is easier when the number of products distinguished is higher and the source data is available at this level of detail. The quality of the balanced results will be higher; this is in particular true when there are data gaps.

TOOL FOR ANALYSIS

  • 9.19A major analytic strength of input-output tables is that they enable the measurement of not only first order effects when there are, for example, changes in energy prices or labour costs, but also second order and more indirect effects. For example, a significant increase in energy prices will affect not only those industries that use energy intensively, but also those industries that use the outputs of energy-intensive producers. Such indirect effects can be highly relevant, as they are sometimes more significant than the direct effects.

SUPPLY AND USE TABLES IN MORE DETAIL

Classifications
  • 9.20The classification used for industries in supply, use and input-output tables is the NACE and the classification employed for products is the CPA; these classifications are fully aligned to each other: at each level of aggregation, the CPA shows the principal products of the industries according to the NACE.
  • 9.21In the supply and use tables, the classification for products is at least as detailed as the classification for industries, e.g. the three-digit level of the CPA and the two digit-level of the NACE.
  • 9.22Industry and product classifications can be based on three different types of criteria: supply-criteria, demand-criteria and size. For productivity analysis, products and their producers are in principle classified by type of production process. For analysis of demand, products are classified by similarity of purpose, for example luxury goods are grouped together, or similarity of marketing relationship such as the sales outlet type. For input-output analysis, the same classification of products or industries is used for supply and demand. The classification is defined in such a way that the size of each class is not too small or too large a part of the national economy. For international classifications, this implies that the quantitative importance of most of the classes is substantial in many countries.
  • 9.23The industry and product classifications in the national accounts are necessarily based on a mixture of such criteria and also the legacy of history. They are mainly defined from a producers' point of view, and so less well suited to analysing supply and demand. Compilers and users of national accounts data on industries and products should have a good notion of what is actually included and excluded in each of the groups and their implications. For example, the industry real estate activities include the services of owner-occupied dwellings and the industry insurance excludes social security funds.
  • 9.24Local KAUs within one industry can have different production processes. This may reflect substantial differences in vertical integration, with ancillary activities such as cleaning, transport, administration and canteen services contracted out, machinery rented, labour contracted in via temporary agencies, and marketing. It may also reflect differences between legal and illegal producers or between producers in different regions.
  • 9.25Due to the changing economic importance of different industries and products, changes in production processes and the appearance of new products, the industry and product classifications are updated regularly. However, a balance has to be struck between keeping abreast of changes in the economy, and the need for comparability of data over time combined with the costs involved of such major changes for the producers and users of the data.
  • 9.26The product classification in the supply and use tables is generally more detailed than the industry classification. There are four major reasons for this:
  • (a) available data on products are often much more detailed than those on industries;
  • (b) the characteristic output of one industry may be subject to substantially different tax regimes and prices, for example when there is price discrimination. Compilation and analysis benefit from different products being distinguished;
  • (c) to enable high quality deflation and the estimation of measures in volume terms, the product groups are homogeneous and well linked to the available price deflators;
  • (d) to ensure a transparent compilation process, separate products are needed to reveal major specific national accounts conventions, such as the services of owner-occupied dwellings, insurance and the market and non-market output by government units.
  • 9.27The distinction between market output, output for own final use and non-market output is only to be used for the total output by industry; the distinction is not required for each product group.
  • 9.28The distinction between market producers, producers for own final use and non-market producers is used for industry when such different types of producers are present. In general, this distinction will therefore only be used for sub-classifying a very limited number of industries such as health care and education.
  • 9.29For analysing the economy of Member States from a European perspective or for deriving supply and use tables for the whole EU, imports and exports are subdivided into:
  • (a) intra-EU flows, distinguishing between within the European Monetary Union and with other Member States;
  • (b) imports and exports with non-EU countries.
Valuation principles
  • 9.30In the supply table, flows of goods and services are valued at basic prices. In the use table, the flows of goods and services are valued at purchasers' prices. In order to have a consistent valuation for the supply and use tables, Table 9.5 shows the transition of supply at basic prices to supply at purchasers' prices. As supply equals use for products, two identities now hold:
  • (a) supply at purchasers' prices is equal to use at purchasers' prices;
  • (b) supply at basic prices is equal to use at basic prices.
  • 9.31Gross value added is recorded at basic prices. It is output valued at basic prices less intermediate consumption valued at purchasers' prices.
  • 9.32Gross value added at factor cost is not a concept used in the ESA. It can be derived from value added at basic prices by subtracting other taxes (less subsidies) on production.
  • 9.33The transition from supply at basic prices to purchasers' prices involves:
  • (a) reallocating trade margins;
  • (b) reallocating transport margins;
  • (c) adding taxes on products (except deductible VAT);
  • (d) deducting subsidies on products.
  • A similar transition applies to transforming use at purchasers' prices into use at basic prices; however, this will amount to deducting taxes on products and adding subsidies on products. Tables 9.8 and 9.9 show the transition in more detail. These tables also serve analytical purposes, such as analysis of prices and analysis of the consequences of changes in the rates of taxes on products.
  • 9.34Thus, the following tables result from the balancing process:
  • (a) supply and use Tables 9.5 and 9.6 showing the final results of balancing totals of supply and use by products at purchasers' prices;
  • (b) the tables on trade and transport margins (Table 9.7) and on taxes (less subsidies) on products (Table 9.8).
