Growth accounts; national accounts
Explanation of symbols
Dataset is not available.
This table presents the outcomes of the Dutch growth accounts. The growth accounts show the contributions of the different production factors to the economic growth. This helps to determine which part of production growth is explained by a change in input of capital (K), labour (L), energy (E), materials (M) or services (S).
The results of the growth accounts also show the contribution of multi-factor productivity. This is the part of economic growth that cannot be attributed to one of the production factors. Disaggregated data, labour and capital productivity are also published in this table. The data on consolidated production and consumption are not available for the years 1995-2014. This is due to the lack of an input-output table with volume changes for these reporting years.
Data available from: 1995.
Status of the figures:
Data for the reporting years 2021 and 2022 are provisional.
Changes as of 29 September 2023:
Figures for the year 2020 and 2021 have been updated. New figures have been added for the year 2022.
Statistics Netherlands has carried out a revision of the national accounts in 2018. New statistical sources and estimation methods have been used during the revision. This table provides the data after revision. For further information see section 3.
When will new figures be published?
Provisional data are published around 9 months after the end of the reporting year. Final data are released 33 months after the end of the reporting year.
Description topics
- Growth accounts
- The volume change of the consolidated production or value added is attributed to the different production factors and to multi-factor productivity.
- Based on consolidated production
- The volume change of the consolidated production is attributed to the different production factors and to multi-factor productivity. The contributions are measured in percentage points. The contributions of capital, labour, intermediate consumption and multi-factor productivity together add up to the volume change of the consolidated production.
- Contribution of services
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of services.
- Intermediate consumption
- The value of the goods and services consumed as inputs by a process of production, excluding fixed assets whose consumption is recorded as consumption of fixed capital, regardless of the date of purchase. The goods or services may be either transformed or used up by the production process. This includes for example fuel, raw materials, semi manufactured goods, communication services, cleansing services and audits by accountants.
The use of fixed assets (industrial structures, machinery, personal traffic equipment) is registered as depreciation, not as intermediate consumption. Purchased goods that are sold without modification are not part of intermediate consumption. The total expenditure to goods and services consists of intermediate consumption together with the final expenditure. Intermediate consumption less internal deliveries is the consolidated intermediate consumption.- Consolidated (mln euros)
- Consolidated intermediate consumption million euros
- Consumption of services
- Intermediate consumption of services less the internal consumption of services. Consolidated consumption of services is the consumption of services when a unit (industry, branch or commercial sector) is described as one single company.
- Consolidated (2015=100)
- Consolidated intermediate consumption 2015=100
- Consumption of services
- Intermediate consumption of services less the internal consumption of services. Consolidated consumption of services is the consumption of services when a unit (industry, branch or commercial sector) is described as one single company.
- Capital services
- The most important types of capital are included in the growth accounts. The capital stocks are included, as are the oil and natural gas reserves. In addition inventories, agricultural land and land underlying buildings are included. The value of capital services is equal to the costs of capital services, these costs are known as the user costs of capital. Conceptually these user costs are best comparable to the rental price of the capital goods. Normally the user costs of capital consists of four parts, namely the depreciation, the (attributed) interest cost, the balance of taxes and subsidies on the use of capital and the revaluation of losses and profits. When prices of capital goods increase, the resulting valuation profits need to be subtracted of the user costs of capital goods. Contrarily, when prices decrease the user costs increase.
- Capital services (mln euros / euros)
- Capital services (mln euros)
- The productive inputs, per period, that flow to production from a capital asset.
- Capital services hours worked (euros)
- The productive inputs, per period per hour worked, that flow to production from a capital asset.
- ICT capital services (mln euros)
- The productive inputs, per period, that flow to production from ICT capital assets. The ICT category consists of computers, communications equipment and software and databases.
- non ICT captal services (mln euros)
- The productive inputs, per period, that flow to production from a capital asset other than the ICT category. This aggregate also includes net taxes and subsidies on capital.
- Capital services neoclass. (mln euros)
- Neoclassical capital services. The productive inputs, per period, that flow to production from a capital asset. These services are calculated by assuming zero profits exist within an industry, thereby designating the entire net operating surplus as a remuneration for capital.
