A guide to deflating the input-output accounts: sources and methods
Abstract
This publication provides a description of the data sources and methods used
to compile the input-output tables at constant prices. It includes a brief description
of the accounting framework, an overview of the methods used for the major components
of the tables and an outline of the techniques applied to each group of goods
and services. It also distinguishes between the derivation of the gross domestic
product by industry for the business sector and that of the non-business sector.
Finally, it discusses some of the critical contemporary issues that are being
addressed at the time of writing.
