Australian National Accounts State Accounts
State Level Data Produced • Limited set of state data published in the Quarterly National Accounts • State Final Demand • Household and Government Consumption • Private and Government Capital Formation • International Trade in Merchandise • Compensation of Employees
State Level Data Produced • Full set of State Accounts produced annually • All three measures: Income, Expenditure & Production • Plus: • Income and Outlay Accounts • Capital Accounts • Agricultural Income
General Approach • National: • At the national level supply-use benchmarks are in place for t-1 • These benchmarks are moved forward using movements from sub-annual indicator series • State: • Headline measure: GSP(A) = average of GSP(E/I) and GSP(P) • National Benchmarks – all state aggregates are set to equal national benchmarks • Note GSP = Gross State Product
GSP(E) • Calculated for each state by adding: • Final expenditures (government and household) • Private and public gross fixed capital formation • Exports less imports of goods and services • A balancing item • Balancing item includes changes in inventories and net interstate trade.
GSP(I) • Calculated for each state by adding: • Compensation of employees • Gross operating surplus • Gross mixed income • Taxes less subsidies on production and imports • Deflated to chain volume estimates using the implicit price deflator from GDP(E)
GSP(P) Methodology • Australia GVA by industry in current prices • Allocate to state using factor income shares in reference year • State GVA by industry in current prices • Apply quantity revaluation or price deflation to create the output indicator • Use output indicator with price information to create chain volume measure
GSP(P) methodology • State GVA by industry chain volume measures • Ownership of dwellings and Taxes less subsidies on products • GSP(P)
GSP(P) methodology • Almost all industries use an output indicator approach • i.e. extrapolate reference year estimates of current price GVA using movements in volume indicator of output • Agriculture uses a double deflation methodology • Most volume indicators derived by price deflation • i.e. dividing a price index into a current price value of sales or turnover • Quantity revaluation used when there are individual commodities that are reasonably homogeneous and not subject to quality change or where price change difficult to measure
GSP(P) methodology • Once each state’s current price and volume GVA estimates have been derived for each industry and Ownership of dwellings they are then benchmarked to the Australian total for each industry • This ensures that the sum of the states for each industry equals the Australian total • Each state’s benchmarked industry GVA estimates (current price and chain volume) are then summed to produce GVA at basic prices for each state • To derive GSP(P) Taxes less subsidies on products needs to be added to each state’s GVA at basic prices
Key Data Sources – GSP(P) • Quarterly Business Indicator Survey • All private non-financial corporations (excl agriculture) by state • Data Items: Sales, Wages, Profits, Inventories • Government Finance Statistics • All general government and public corporations by state/national • Administrative data from other government departments • Mining, Agriculture, Finance & Insurance, Health, Education • Price Indexes • Consumer Price Index (by State) • Producer Price Indexes (national except for construction) • Labour Price Index (by state)
Key Issues – GSP(P) • A number of price indexes are representative of national, rather than state, price movements • Single deflation methodology used – output used as an indicator for value added, data on intermediate consumption not available on timely basis • We do not produce state supply-use or input-output tables - product mixes within industries may vary on a state basis, this is not picked up • Allocation of activity spread across regions i.e. Mining operation vs Mining company headquarters
