Measuring GDP
Expenditures approach GDP = C + I + G + (X-M)
Income approach
GDP = Compensation of Employees +
Gross Operating Surplus + TOPI less
Subsidies
Production or “value added” approach
GDP = Gross Output - Intermediate Inputs

Components of income
Compensation of Employees Wages and salaries Employer contributions to pension and insurance
funds
Gross Operating Surplus Corporate profits, proprietors’ income, etc. Consumption of fixed capital
Taxes on Production and Imports less Subsidies Federal excise taxes; State and local sales taxes Subsidies: grants by government to businesses
and government enterprises

Source data

Administrative data
Mostly data collected for non-statistical purposes Financial statements Regulatory data Tax agencies
Utilize a wide range of concepts and definitions that may differ significantly from those used in the national accounts
Scope and coverage may differ over time because of changes in business accounting and tax rules
bea.gov
Adjustments to source data
7
Significant adjustments are required to ensure coverage and consistency with national accounts concepts
Misreporting adjustments
Inventory valuation adjustments
Adjustments to exclude capital gains and losses
Capital consumption adjustments
Adjustments to industry classifications

Both GDP by income and GDP by expenditures have measurement strengths and weaknesses Consistency with economic concepts Source data timing Consistency with benchmark data Availability of corresponding price measures

Quality weighting
Reliability indicators assigned to components of intermediate inputs and gross operating surplus by industry—in most cases, coefficients of variation
Less reliable components adjust more; more reliable components adjust less

Looking forward …
Research on combining GDP by expenditures and GDP by income based on reliability of underlying source data
Research on the role of capital gains and losses in financial profits
Improved consistency across source data: data synchronization
New Quarterly GDP by industry data based on the Income and Production approaches
