National net lending or net borrowing

This part of the table shows two approaches to the national net
lending or net borrowing.
The national net lending or borrowing shows the amount a country can
lend or has to borrow, given the current and capital transactions in the
national accounts. There are two approaches to this variable:
I. The approach through the surplus of national income
Scheme:
Gross domestic product (market prices)
Primary incomes received from the rest of the world (+)
Primary incomes paid to the rest of the world (-)
= Gross national income (market prices)
Current transfers received from the rest of the world (+)
Current transfers paid to the rest of the world (-)
= Gross disposable national income
Final consumption expenditure (-)
Adjustment for net equity in pension funds reserves (+)
=Gross national saving
Fixed capital formation incl. change in inventories (-)
=Surplus of the Nation on income
=Surplus of the Nation on current transactions with the rest of the world
Capital transfers received from the rest of the world (+)
Capital transfers paid to the rest of the world (-)
= National net lending and borrowing
II. The approach through the surplus of the nation on current transactions
with the rest of the world.
Scheme:
Net exports, the difference between exports and imports of
goods and services (+)
Net primary income from the rest of the world (+)
Net current transfers from the rest of the world (+)
=Surplus of the Nation on current transactions with the rest of the world
=Surplus of the Nation on income
Capital transfers received from the rest of the world (+)
Capital transfers paid to the rest of the world (-)
= National net lending and borrowing

Additional details

The additional details of some variables in the previous parts of this
table are being given in this section.

Consumption expenditure

More specific details of the final consumption expenditure are provided
in part of the table.
There are two classification for the consumption expenditure concept: the
expenditure classification and the acquisition classification.
The expenditure classification refers to expenditure on consumption goods.
In contrast the acquisition classification refers to the acquisition of
consumption goods and services. The difference between these concepts lies
in the treatment of certain goods and services financed by the government
or NPI households but supplied to households as social transfers in kind.
By convention, all final consumption expenditure by NPI households and
most of the final consumption expenditure by the government in the field
of education, health, social security and welfare, sport and recreation
and culture are treated as individual consumption.
I. The expenditure classification of final consumption:
This classification focuses on the expenses for consumption goods and
services. The total final consumptions is divided to sectors which
actually financed the consumption expenditures.
Classification scheme:
Total final consumption expenditure=
Consumption expenditure by households and by NPI households=
Consumption expenditure by households plus
Consumption expenditure by NPI households
Consumption expenditure by general government=
Collective consumption by general government plus
Individual consumption by general government
II. The acquisition classification of final consumption:
This classification focuses on the acquisition of consumption goods and
services. The total final consumption is divided to groups which have
acquired the consumption goods and services: individuals or the
collective.
Classification scheme:
Total final consumption expenditure=
Actual individual consumption=
Consumption expenditure by households
Consumption expenditure by NPI households
Individual consumption by general government
Actual collective consumption

Expenditure classification

The expenditure classification of final consumption:
This classification focuses on the expenses for consumption goods and
services. The total final consumptions is divided to sectors which
actually financed the consumption expenditures.
Classification scheme:
Total final consumption expenditure=
Consumption expenditure by households and by NPI households=
Consumption expenditure by households plus
Consumption expenditure by NPI households
Consumption expenditure by general government=
Collective consumption by general government plus
Individual consumption by general government.

Consumption by households

Final consumption expenditure by households and by Non-Profit Institutions
Final consumption expenditure by households includes the following
borderline cases:
- income in kind like accommodation, food, clothing etc.
- services of dwellings, which are occupied by the owners themselves and
without any actual rent payments. These services are valued by applying
the rents of similar dwellings.
- goods and services produced for own use, as in agriculture.
The value of these products is calculated by applying the market prices
for similar products.
- durable consumption goods such as private cars, household appliances,
furniture and clothing. However, the purchases of dwellings by households
are not seen as final consumption, but as fixed capital formation by
households.
The detailed data on consumption of households concern private domestic
consumption expenditure. This includes final consumption in the
Netherlands by residents and non-residents. Final consumption by
households can be calculated by deducting from private domestic
consumption expenditure the final consumption by non-residents in the
Netherlands (registered as exports) and adding final consumption by
households in the rest of the world (registered as imports).
Final consumption expenditure by NPI households
Final consumption expenditure by NPI households consists of all the
non-market output of this sector excluding the own account capital
formation.

Consumption by residents abroad

Final consumption by resident households in the rest of the world.

Imports by groups of products

Details of imports of goods and services by groups of products.
On the macro level imports of goods is valued free on board (fob)at the
border of the exporting country. The transition from valuation of imported
goods at cif to fob consists of:
- a cif/fob adjustment of the transport costs abroad of Dutch freighters.
Total imports (goods) and exports (services) are reduced by the same
amount.
- a cif/fob reclassification of the transport costs abroad of foreign
freighters, from imports of goods to imports of services.
It leaves total imports and total exports unchanged.
Imports of goods are goods intended for residents, which are imported from
abroad into the Dutch economic territory.
Included in imports of goods are raw materials, semimanufactured products,
fuels and final products. Also included are imported goods, which are
re-exported without undergoing any processing.
Imports of services include among other things the expenditures
abroad by Dutch tourists, inhabitants of the border area and
diplomats.

Consumption by residents abroad

Final consumption by resident households in the rest of the world.
