Expenditure on GNP

• Private Final Consumption Expenditure• Government Final Consumption

Expenditure• Gross Fixed Capital Formation• Changes in Stocks• Exports (minus imports) of Good and

Services• Net Factor Income from Rest of the World

19

Private Final Consumption Expenditure

Final Consumption of goods and services of household and private non-profit institutions serving households

Measured throughResidually

20

Government Final Consumption Expenditure

Current expenditures on goods and services by all the departments and establishments of: Federal Government Provincial Governments District Governments Cantonments

21

Weaknesses in methods

• Value added of Banks not in line with SNA• Value added includes holding gains and property

incomes (≠ SNA)• Construction: no survey• Extrapolations with doubtful assumptions• Constant prices: single deflation, only• No PIM for calculations related to capital stock• No independent calculation of private

consumption• Some terms are outdated, especially “GNP”

22

Weaknesses in the data base

• Economic Census of partial use, only • Small scale manufacturing: very old data• Extrapolating of Large Scale Manufacturing

via QIM: no sub-classification by industry• Producer Price Index poor• Few sub-annual figures (QIM and LFS, only) • Business register is missing

23

The two main revisions: overviewRevision 1 Revison 2

2012 tentativelypart 1

(in FY 2006-07 and following)part 2

(in FY 2008-09)

• Launch Quarterly National Accounts• implement “basic prices” and other concepts of the SNA (e.g. FISIM)• implement new surveys (especially in manufacturing)• fully and uniformly apply PSIC 3 (ISIC Rev 3) and other classifications• Exploit GFS for adapting PSIC and SNA, start implementing SUT / IO• continue collecting data on GFCF; revisit concept and methods of production statistics

• introduce new price basis FY 2006 – 07• implement new surveys (especially construction)• implement new methods of extrapolation (esp. QIM)• implement independent calculation of private

consumption• reconcile figures NA with figures SUT

apply new PSIC (ISIC Rev 4) and fully allocate “public sector” to “industries” •implement first institutional sector accounts •

use IO for consistency and CF and deflators •introduce and improve double deflation and apply quality adjustment •

implement PIM and resume capital stock calculation •enhance scope and quality of expenditure side of GDP •implement new surveys and introduce new price basis •

24

Valuation Principles

• Factor Cost • Market Prices

25

Price and other indicators used

• CPI, PPI, WPI, Unit Price Index of Imports/Exports

26

Current Base Period

• 1999-2000• The work on change of base 1999-2000 to 2005-

06 is in progress.

27

Rebasing/Linking Practice

• First base of National Accounts was 1959-60• Second: 1980-81• Third: 1999-2000• Fourth: 2005-06 (work in progress)• The series from 1980-81backward has been

Backward Linked/Revised.• No Backward Link from 1999-2000 has been

made.• The series from 2005-06 will be linked/revised

backward and forward.

28

Challenges and Difficulties Faced

• Difficulty in Collection of data for compilation of accounts.

• Some data are given by secondary sources, only. Government Finance Statistics is with MoF.

• No regular print productions.• Shortage of resources (Manpower, Financial).• Public confidence in the data is poor.

29

Type of Technical Assistance Required

• Pakistan may be considered in the International Training Programmes on National Accounts.

30

Plans for 93/2008 SNA Implementation

• 1993 SNA is currently followed• GDP/GNP at current factor cost/ constant factor

cost and market prices are compiled.• It has been decided to implement the SNA 93

during the current change of base i.e., 2005-06• SNA 93 will be implemented in phases.• Adequate data and technical know how are the

two main challenges for the implementation of SNA 93.

• Pakistan may be considered in all international training programmes of National Accounts.
