National Accounts at a Glance 2010

National Accounts at a Glancepresents information using an'indicator'approach, focusing on cross-country comparisons; the aim being to make the national accounts more accessible and informative, while, at the same time, taking the opportunity to present the conceptual underpinning of, and comparability issues inherent in, each of the indicators presented.  This book includes OECD's uniqueStatLinkservice, which enables readers to download Excel®versions of tables and graphs.
Look for theStatLinkat the foot of each table and graph. The range of indicators reflects the richness inherent in the national accounts dataset and encourages users to refocus some of the spotlight that is often placed on GDP to other economic important indicators, which may better respond to their needs. The publication is broken down into seven key chapters, and provides indicators related to income, expenditure, production, government and capital respectively. Data are generally available for the period 1996-2009.
