GDP, production and spending; quarters, mutations 1988 — kw1 2014

This table contains quarterly and annual data on the production components, the categories of expenditure and the income components of the Netherlands’ gross domestic product. Gross domestic product is an important macroeconomic concept. The volume development of gross domestic product is the measure of a country’s economic growth. It is common in the National Accounts and therefore also in the quarterly accounts to approach gross domestic product from three points of view, from production, from spending and from income. In addition, there are also data on income transactions with foreign countries. This makes it possible to make calculations on gross national income (GNI). This data is grouped under the subject “national balance of claims”. Finally, detailed data of variables from the first four topics are available. These are presented under “details”. The data are shown in the percentage value, volume and price developments compared to the same period in the previous year and relative to the previous period. The volume development of GDP compared to the same period in the previous year, uncorrected (realised economic growth) is displayed and adjusted for any difference in working days. The volume development compared to the previous quarter has been adjusted for a number of variables for seasonal and working days effects. In order to give the best possible picture of the cyclical situation, growth is calculated for a number of variables compared to the previous quarter. This is adjusted by default for seasonal and any working day effects. With the release of new quarterly figures, this seasonal and working day correction is recalculated over and over again. This usually leads to minor adjustments to previously estimated figures, but occasionally to more substantial adjustments. Data available from: First quarter 1988 to first quarter 2014 Status of the figures: The figures from 1988 are final. Data from 2011 to 2014-I are still provisional.
