Description topics
- Resources
- Resources are transactions add to the economic value of sectors.
- Capital transfers
- Capital transfers are payments for which no quid pro quo by the beneficiary is expected. They burden the wealth of the payer, or are meant to finance fixed capital formation or other long-term expenditures of the receiver. Capital transfers can be classified into capital taxes, investment grants, imputed capital transfers and other capital transfers.
- Total
- Investment grants
- Investment grants are capital transfers, which are intended to finance fixed capital formation of other units.
- Other capital transfers
- Other capital transfers are capital transfers that cannot be characterized as investment grants or as capital taxes.
- Uses
- Uses are transactions appear which deduces the economic value of sectors.

- Capital taxes
- Capital taxes are compulsory, non-periodical payments to the government. They are based on the wealth of taxable persons. Taxes on net wealth of individuals are imposed periodically and are therefore recorded as taxes on income and wealth.
- Other capital transfers
- Other capital transfers are capital transfers that cannot be characterized as investment grants or as capital taxes.
- Gross capital formation
- Capital formation consists of capital formation in fixed assets and changes in inventories including valuables.
- Total
- Gross fixed capital formation
- Expenditure on produced assets that are used in a production process for more than one year. This may concern a building, dwelling, transport equipment or a machine. This in contrast with goods and services which are used up during the production process, the so-called intermediate use (e.g. iron ore). Fixed capital does lose value over time as a result of normal wear and tear and obsolescence. This is called consumption of fixed capital (also called depreciation). The value of fixed capital formation in which the consumption of fixed capital is not deducted is called gross fixed capital formation. Deduction of the consumption of fixed capital results in net fixed capital formation.
The following types of fixed assets exist: dwellings and other buildings and structures, machinery and equipment, transport equipment, weapon systems (included in machinery and equipment), computers, software, telecommunication equipment, research and development, cultivated biological resources, mineral exploration and evaluation, and costs of ownership transfer on non-produced assets, like land, contracts, leases and licenses.- Total
- Consumption of fixed capital
- The decline in value of fixed assets owned, as a result of normal wear and tear and obsolescence.
For the estimation of the consumption of fixed capital the perpetual inventory method (PIM) is applied. The capital stock at the beginning of the year is brought to replacement value because of price changes. The fixed capital formation during the year is added to this capital stock. Next it is diminished with the value of capital goods discarded. This gives to value of capital stock at the end of the year. The consumption of fixed obtained by applying a depreciation percentage.
This method may differ considerably from the method used to calculate depreciation in business accounts, which is based on historical costs or fiscal life span.
- Net fixed capital formation
- Expenditure on produced assets that are used in a production process for more than one year. This may concern a building, dwelling, transport equipment or a machine.

- Balancing items
- A balancing item is obtained by subtracting the total value of the entries on one side of an account from the total value on the other side.
- Net saving and capital transfers
- Changes in net worth, due to saving and capital transfers, which corresponds to net saving plus capital transfers receivable, minus capital transfers payable.
