Supply And Use Tables Supply Output By Industry Edition 2019

The supply table describes the supply of goods and services, which are either produced in the domestic industry or imported. The use table shows where and how goods and services are used in the economy. Therefore in addition to their essential role to better estimations of National Accounts, Supply and Use tables are also a very powerful tool to understand the impact of policy decisions and globalisation, as they provide a detailed analysis of the process of production and the use of goods and services.

Steorts (former Chair, U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission) offers a general guide to safety, as well as a reference tool for understanding consumer safety concerns. Included are suggestions for "safety-proofing" one's home, discussions of product safety, and information on general areas of concern such as food safety, fire safety, electrical safety, poisons, outdoor safety, sport safety, holiday safety, and safety for the aged. The book also provides a behind-the-scenes account of how various organizations work to ensure the safety of consumers. Many chapters suggest other sources for more information and provide the phone numbers of product-safety organizations.

To derive real GDP, the System of National Accounts 2008 (2008 SNA) recommends a technique called double deflation. Some countries use single deflation techniques, which fail to capture important relative price changes and introduce estimation errors in official GDP growth. We simulate the effects of single deflation to the GDP data of eight countries that use double deflation. We find that errors due to single deflation can be significant, but their magnitude and direction are not systematic over time and across countries. We conclude that countries still using single deflation should move to double deflation.

Data for a Greener World presents a structured discussion on how to measure the economic and financial dimensions of climate change. It combines economic theory and analysis with real world examples of how climate data can be constructed for different country settings, based on existing climate science and economic data. The book identifies important climate data gaps, as well as practical and innovative approaches to close many of these gaps. The book discusses how to track greenhouse gas emission by production and consumption (Chapters 1-2), which lead to physical risks (Chapters 3-4) and transition risks (Chapters 5-7) and concludes with cross-border implications of climate risks (Chapters 8-9). The book also showcases a collaboration of seven international organizations: European Central Bank, Eurostat, International Energy Agency, International Monetary Fund, Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, World Bank, and World Trade Organization. Chapter contributions come from leading practitioners and experts in the fields of energy and climate change issues. This volume also serves as a reference guide for the IMF's Climate Change Indicators Dashboard and future research in this area.
