Growth accounts; national accounts

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.
- Consolidated production
- Production less the internal deliveries. The consolidated production is the production remaining when a unit (industry, branch, commercial sector) is described as one single company.
- Contribution of labour
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of labour.
- Contribution of hours worked
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by the change in hours worked. This variable is part of the contribution of labour.
- Contribution of labour composition
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by the change in background characteristics of labour. These characteristics are sex, age, level of education, branch/industry and covered by a collective agreement. This variable is part of the contribution of labour.
- Contribution of capital
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of capital.
- Contribution of ICT capital
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of ICT capital. The ICT category consists of computers, communications equipment and software and databases.
- Contribution of non ICT capital
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of capital other than the ICT category. This aggregate also includes net taxes and subsidies on capital.
- Contribution of intermediate consumption
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of intermediate consumption.
- Contribution of energy
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of energy.
- Contribution of materials
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of materials.
- Contribution of services
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of services.
- Contribution of mfp
- The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in the production process. The contribution of multi-factor productivity is seen as the part of output growth that cannot be explained by the growth of inputs. A few explanations for this change are: technological progress, economies of scale, capacity utilisation and incidental factors such as weather conditions (for example in agriculture).
- Labour productivity
- The change of consolidated production or value added per unit of labour volume. Labour volume here is the hours worked.
- Based on consolidated production
- Labour productivity change based on consolidated production.
- Labour productivity change (%)
- Labour productivity (2015=100)
- Capital productivity
- The volume change of consolidated production or value added per unit of capital.
- Based on consolidated production
- The volume change of consolidated production per unit of capital.
- Capital productivity change (%)
- Capital productivity (2015=100)
- Consolidated production
- The production less the internal deliveries. The production remaining when a unit (industry, branch, commercial sector) is described as one single company.
- Consolidated production in (mln euros)
- Consolidated production (2015=100)
- 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 energy
- Intermediate consumption of energy products less the internal deliveries of energy products. Besides products produced by energy and drinking water companies energy products also entails sources of energy like coals, (crude and processed) oil and gas. The consolidated energy consumption is the energy consumption when a unit (branch, industry or commercial sector) is described as one single company.
- Consolidated (2015=100)
- Consolidated intermediate consumption 2015=100
- Consumption of energy
- Intermediate consumption of energy products less the internal deliveries of energy products. Besides products produced by energy and drinking water companies energy products also entails sources of energy like coals, (crude and processed) oil and gas. The consolidated energy consumption is the energy consumption when a unit (branch, industry or commercial sector) is described as one single company.
- Production factors
- Production factors in the growth accounts consist of labour, capital and intermediate consumption when the output is production. If output is value added the production factors are labour and capital.
- Total production factors (mln euros)
- Total input KLEMS
- The total deployment of the production factors capital, labour, energy, materials and services in the production process (KLEMS is an acronym for capital, labour, materials, energy and services).
- Total input capital and labour
- The total deployment of the production factors capital and labour in the production process.
- Total production factors (2015=100)
- Total input KLEMS
- The total deployment of the production factors capital, labour, energy, materials and services in the production process (KLEMS is an acronym for capital, labour, materials, energy and services).
- Total input capital and labour
- The total deployment of the production factors capital and labour in the production process.
