INTRODUCTION In any economy a number of transactions are taking place on a daily basis.

Imports are arriving, exports are being sent abroad.

These transactions need to be organized in a systematic way.

The System of National Accounts 1993 (1993 SNA) is used to organize and measure these transactions.

It is the basic international standard for compilation of national accounts, adopted by the United Nations Statistical Commission in 1993 and endorsed by the Economic and Social Council.
It is a comprehensive, consistent and flexible set of macro-economic accounts to meet the needs of government and private sector analysts, policy makers and decision makers.

It is designed for use in all countries, whatever their economic, social and institutional arrangements and stage of economic development are.

The Dominica System of National Accounts is based on the 1993 SNA.
However, presently the national accounts framework, does not comprise of the entire set of integrated macroeconomic accounts, but follows the set of internationally accepted concepts, definitions, classification, and accounting rules in its compilation of the basic accounts.
The accounts prepared includes the compilation of the basic measure of output arising from the economic activity and expenditure taking place within the economy and between different economic agents in constant prices and its related indicators.

However Output, Intermediate Consumption and Value Added are available in current prices.

The Supply and Use tables were also compiled for the year 2005.
The national accounts are an essential tool for analyzing, monitoring and evaluating the performance of the economy.

The accounts are compiled relative to a base year which should be updated periodically due to structural changes in the economy.

It is widely acknowledged that the structure of the Dominican economy has changed significantly since 1990, the last base year.

There have been substantial shifts in the industrial composition particularly a shift from agriculture into services.
As a result, in 2005, the Dominica Central Statistical Office (CSO) embarked on an exercise to rebase its system of National Accounts from base year 1990 to a more recent base year.

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) and the Caribbean Regional Technical Assistance (CARTAC) provided technical assistance in the rebasing of the national accounts.
The revision process included the inclusion of new and revised data into the estimates, the revision of the national accounts classification of industries and the rebasing of the constant prices from 1990 to 2006.

The new series is very comprehensive and uses ISIC Rev.

3.1 for classification of GOP by Economic Activity.

It provides estimates of value added for sub-groups, especially services that were not accurately captured in the previous series.
The data used in the compilation of the national accounts were obtained from different sources such as surveys and administrative records from the government, private establishments and individuals.

The • • • primary source of data used in the majority of the industries was the annual National Accounts Survey of Economic Activity (NAS).

This survey provided information on employment and financial operations of businesses and organizations operating in Dominica.
The survey data were collected from establishments in the Business Register that is maintained and updated by the CSO.
Other major sources included the External Trade Statistics prOVided by the Customs Department and the CSO, administrative data from the Inland Revenue Department (IRD) and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries Department, Government Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure, the Consumer Price Index (CPI), Production Statistics, Balance of Payments (BOP), and Household Expenditure Surveys, Additional information was also obtained from the Dominica Social Security (DSS) and the Registrar of Companies on employment and number of establishments which were used to adjust the series to account for under­ coverage.

KEY CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS The following notes, concepts and definitions are presented here in order to facilitate an understanding of the statistical tables presented in this publication.

OUTPUT Output measures the value of goods and services produced within an establishment that become available for use outside that establishment.
There are three types of output: (i) (ii) (iii) Market output Output for own final use Other non-market output (1 ) Market output consists of: • • • • (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Products sold at economically significant prices Products bartered Products used for payments in kind (wages in kind etc.)

Intra-company transfers of product (i.e.


the value of goods and services supplied by one establishment to another within the same enterprise, to be used as intermediate inputs) Changes in inventories of work-in-progress and finished goods, referred to as stock investment (2) Output for own final use consists of: (a) (b) Own-account capital formation Households production of products for own final consumption.
These include • Production of goods for own final consumption • Services of paid domestic staff • Services of owner-occupied dwellings (3) Other non-market output: This consists of output that is provided free or at economically non-significant prices to other units.

This includes most of the output of the government sector and non-profit institutions serving households (NPI).
INTERMEDIATE CONSUMPTION This consists of non-durable goods and services purchased by producers and used up as inputs in the process of production.

It does not include goods and services produced within the establishment and fed back as inputs into production within the same establishment.

Non-durable goods are defined as goods having an expected lifetime of use of less than a year.

Intermediate consumption goods are valued in purchasers' prices.
In practice, intermediate consumption is estimated as the sum of purchases of inputs 3 less changes in inventories of inputs.

Problems sometimes arise in differentiating intermediate • consumption from compensation of employees and gross capital formation.

VALUATION OF GOODS AND SERVICES Basic price is the amount receivable by the producer from the purchaser for a unit of a good or service produced, less any tax payable, plus any subsidy receivable on that unit as a consequence of its production or sale.
It excludes any transport charges invoiced separately by the producer.

Producer's price is the amount receivable by the producer for a unit of a good or service produced, less any VAT invoiced to the purchaser.

It excludes any transport charges invoiced separately by the producer.
Purchasers' price is the amount paid by the purchaser, excluding any deductible VAT or similar deductible tax, in order to take delivery of a unit of a good or service at the time and place required by the It includes any transport charges paid separately by the purchaser to take delivery at the purchaser.

required time and place VALUATION OF ITEMS USED IN COMPILING THE ACCOUNTS 1.

Output is valued at basic prices 2.

Intermediate consumption is valued at purchasers' prices 3.
Private and government final consumption expenditure are valued at purchasers' prices.

Private final consumption expenditure has been estimated as the residual of the GDP after the deduction of: a.

Net exports of goods and services; b.

Government final consumption expenditure and gross capital formation.

4.

Gross capital formation consists of gross fixed capital formation and changes in inventories.

Gross fixed capital formation and changes in inventories have been valued at purchaser's prices.
Changes in inventories are measured by the value of the entries into inventories less the value of withdrawals and the value of any recurrent losses of goods held in inventories.

5.

Imports are valued at f.o.b.

(free on board) as in the balance of payment statistics.

This consists of the c.i.f.

price less the costs of transportation and insurance charges between the customs frontier of the exporting country and that of the importing country.

• • • • .. 6.
• • • • .. 6.

Exports are valued f.o.b., which is defined as the cost of the goods to the purchaser abroad including packing, inland transport, loading charges and all other costs occurring up to the point where goods are deposited on board the exporting vessel or aircraft.

BASIC PRICE PRODUCER PRICE PURCHASER'S PRICE GROSS VALUE ADDED Gross value added is a measure of each producer's contribution to GOP.
It is a measure of the increased or newly created value generated by the production process in question, gross of any capital used up in the production process.

FIGURE 2: DERIVATION OF GROSS VALUE-ADDED ..

Gross Output Intermediate Consumption Gross Value Added 5 FINANCIAL INTERMEDIATION SERVICES INDIRECTLY MEASURED (FISIM) In computing the gross domestic product for the total economy, an adjustment is made for financial intermediation services indirectly measured (FISIM).
FISIM is measured as the total property income receivable by financial intermediaries minus their total interest payable, excluding the value of any property income receivable from the investment of their own funds; as such income does not arise from financial intermediation.

FISIM must be recorded as being disposed of in one or more of the following ways - as intermediate consumption by enterprises, as final consumption by households or as exports to non­ • residents.
GROSS VALUE ADDED AT BASIC PRICES This pertains to the value of all goods and services produced in an economy within a given time period of usually one year.

It is equal to the sum of compensation of employees, consumption of fixed capital, taxes less subsidies on production and operating surplus.

An over-riding consideration on measuring the value of a country's gross domestic product is that duplication must be avoided.
Duplication is avoided by deducting from the output of each producing unit the value of the inputs of goods and services that it has received from other units, at home or abroad.

GROSS NATIONAL INCOME AT MARKET PRICES Gross national income at market prices is the value of the goods and services produced by the labour and capital supplied by residents of a country.
It is derived by adding net income from the rest of the world to GOP at market prices.

GNI is identical to GNP as was used previously in National Accounts.

NET INCOME FROM THE REST OF THE WORLD This is defined as the sum of two major components - net compensation of employees, and net property and entrepreneurial income.

Net compensation of employees covers the labour income for residents abroad and non-residents in the country.
Net property and entrepreneurial income covers investment income from ownership of foreign financial claims such as interest and dividends.

The entrepreneurial income of foreign investment in a country, i.e.

profits and dividends could be remitted to foreign countries or left unremitted.

The unremitted portion is always treated as reinvested earnings.
LABOUR INCOME AND WORKERS' REMITIANCES It should be noted that there is a distinction between those individuals whose earnings are to be classified as labour income (persons who are not residents of the economy where they work) and migrants (persons who have become residents of that economy by virtue of being expected to live there for a year or more).

This distinction is often hard to make in practice.
Data for these items are generally obtained from the balance of payments accounts, where migrants' income is classified as workers' remittances under current transfers and labour income is classified as compensation of employees in the income account.

NATIONAL ACCOUNTS AT CONSTANT PRICES For analytical purposes, the national accounts at constant prices are derived by breaking current values down into a price component and quantity component.
Estimates at constant prices are usually derived by deflating the current output values by price indices or by extrapolating base year values by appropriate volume indices.

Both are equivalent to expressing current period quantities at base period prices.

METHODOLOGY OF ESTIMATING GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT The value added can be estimated by three different approaches, which are generally called the production approach, the income approach and the expenditure approach.
The production approach is designed to evaluate the value of output.

The value added is estimated by deducting intermediate consumption from the value of output.

The production approach is useful for • estimation of gross value added for the commodity producing sectors, viz, agriculture, livestock, forestry, fishing and mining.
7 The income approach is used to estimate the value added by aggregating compensation of employees, taxes less subsidies on production, operating surplus and consumption of fixed capital.

This approach is also referred to as the cost approach since it looks at the costs incurred by the producer within the establishment.

It is most commonly used in the case of service sectors, since data on gross output and intermediate consumption in the service sectors may not be readily available.
• • The expenditure approach is used to estimate the gross domestic product according to categories of final use.

This consists of estimates of expenditure of households' final consumption, consumption expenditure of government, private non-profit services serving households and gross capital formation adjusted for imports and exports of goods and services.
COMPENSATION OF EMPLOYEES This is defined to include all payments by resident producers of wages and salaries to their employees in cash and in kind, and of contributions, paid or imputed in respect of their employees, to social security schemes and to private pensions, family allowance, casualty insurance, life insurance and similar schemes.
Wages and Salaries This is defined to include all payments that employees receive in respect of their work whether in cash or in kind, and before deductions to social security, income tax, etc.
Included are: a) Commissions, overtime payments b) Tips c) Bonuses d) Cost-of-living and dearness allowances e) Fees to ministers of religion f) Fees to members of board of directors g) Holiday and paid vacation or sick leave Also included is the cost to the employer of providing food, lodging, ordinary clothing etc.

either free of cost or at a markedly reduced cost that is of clear and direct benefit to the employees as consumers.
Excluded from wages and salaries is expenditure by employers which is of benefit to both the employees and employers.

Examples of these are outlays on: a) Medical examinations b) Sporting and other recreational facilities c) Amenities at place of work d) Reimbursement of expenses for travel and entertainment e) Reimbursement of expenses or provision of uniforms, tools and equipment.
• • Employer's contribution to Social Security Schemes This is the amount payable by employers to social security schemes for the benefit of their employees.

Employer's contribution to Private Pension Funds and other pensions This is defined as contributions to private funds, reserves or other special schemes in respect of family allowances, lay-off and severance pay, casualties and maternity leave and pensions.
The System of National Accounts (SNA) states that if in the absence of special schemes of reserves, employers make direct payments of this type to their employees, imputed contributions in respect of these obligations should be included in the employer's contribution to private schemes.
OPERATING SURPLUS OR MIXED INCOME This is equivalent to the excess of value added at the producers' prices over the sum of compensation of the employees, taxes less subsidies on production and imports and allowances for the consumption of fixed capital.

If a strict income approach to estimation value added is used, operating surplus is estimated directly and value added is estimated as the sum of its elements.
If a combination of the production and income approaches to estimation is used, value added is computed as the difference between gross output and intermediate consumption and operating surplus is calculated as the residual between value added and its other components.

Operating surplus is simply the sum of net profits and property income.
It is the surplus or deficit from production before taking into account interest and land rents payable by the • establishments, as any non-allowable items such as bad debts, donations, miscellaneous provisions and capital items written off as current expense.

Mixed income is similarly defined but contains an element of remuneration for the work done by the owners and households of unincorporated businesses.
When estimates of the operating surplus of establishments are derived from data on profits shown in the accounts of enterprises, care has to be taken to adjust these data, as necessary, to the national accounts' definition.

If the figures from the accounts of enterprises relate to profits before taxes, it is necessary to adjust them to remove property incomes, transfers paid and received and capital gains and losses reflected in the figures.
CONSUMPTION OF FIXED CAPITAL This is defined as the value at current replacement cost of the reproducible fixed assets used up during a period of account as a result of normal wear and tear, foreseen obsolescence and the normal rate of accidental damage.

However, unforeseen obsolescence, major catastrophes and the depletion of natural resources are not included in consumption of fixed capital.
TAXES ON PRODUCTION AND IMPORTS These are defined as compulsory, unrequited payments to government, which industries treat as part of the cost of production.

The SNA 93 no longer uses the term "indirect taxes".

Indirect taxes have been 9 • • • renamed "taxes on production and imports".

They do not include direct taxes on the income or wealth of enterprises.
Taxes on production and imports consist of the following two groups: 1) Taxes on Products Tax usually payable per unit of specific goods and services i.

Production tax/excise duties: Include excise duties on rum, beer, cigarettes and soft drinks ii.

iii.

Taxes on exports.

Other taxes on products: Other taxes on specific goods and services, e.g.

hotel occupancy tax and entertainment tax.


2} Other Taxes on Production Taxes that establishments incur as a result of engaging in production but which are not directly tied to specific goods and services Property taxes Business and professional licenses Other taxes and licenses: Include stamp duties, vehicle taxes and licenses.

i. ii.

iii.

SUBSIDIES These are grants on the current account made by government to private industries and public corporations.
They also comprise grants made by the public authorities to government enterprises in compensation for operating losses when these losses are clearly the consequences of the policy of the government to maintain prices at a level below cost of production.
Any government grants to producers which are not connected with their productive activities but are given to them in the capacity of customers, such as social assistance grants and social security benefits, should be treated as current transfers and not as subsidies.

GOVERNMENT FINAL CONSUMPTION This is defined as the value of gross output of producers of government services less the value of its commodity and non-commodity sales and the value of its own-account capital formation.
The gross output is equal to the cost of production, that is, the sum of the intermediate consumption of goods and services, compensation of employees, consumption of fixed capital and corresponding net taxes on production.

The government's final consumption expenditure consists therefore of the purchases of goods and services and expenditure on compensation of employees, less the revenue received from sales.

Sales do not include fees and charges levied by governments for regulatory purposes.
Examples are payments of driving tests, vehicle licenses, driving permits, dog licenses, passports, airport fees and fees charged for court services, all of which are defined as fees when paid by households and as taxes on production when 10 paid by enterprises.

Fines and penalties are also excluded from sales and classified as "fines and penalties" whether paid by households or enterprises.

These items are not to be deducted from gross output to arrive at final consumption expenditure.
PRIVATE FINAL CONSUMPTION EXPENDITURE This is defined as the outlays of households on new durable and non-durable goods and services less their net sales of second-hand goods, scraps and waste.

Purchases of households of consumer durables such as furniture, radios, and automobiles are all included in private final consumption expenditure.

Purchases of dwellings are treated as gross fixed capital formation of the real estate industry.
The imputed rent of owner-occupied dwellings is part of the gross output of the real estate industry and is also included in the final consumption expenditure of households.

Two main concepts of final consumption expenditure of households are applied in the SNA, namely final consumption expenditure of households in the domestic market and final consumption expenditure of resident households.
The former concept relates to the expenditure of all household residents as well as non-residents, in the domestic territory of a country.

This concept is arrived at first in the process of estimation; it is also the concept of household consumption expenditure, which is classified according to type and object of expenditure.
Final consumption expenditure of residents is derived from final consumption expenditure of households in the domestic market plus the direct purchases resident households make abroad minus the purchases non-resident households make in the domestic market.
Direct purchases of resident households abroad and by non-resident households in the domestic market cover expenditure by individuals such as diplomats and military personnel and by individuals who visit foreign countries as tourists, seasonal or border workers for a period of less than one year.

Outlays of individuals who are travelling on business and whose expenses are reimbursed by their employers should not be included, as they are part of the intermediate consumption expenditure of the employers.
GROSS FIXED CAPITAL FORMATION This consists of additions to the assets of producers of tangible reproducible goods that have an expected lifetime of use of one year or more.

The producers in question may be industries, producers of government services and producers of private nonprofit services to households.

The capital goods may be purchased or produced on own account.
Sales less purchases of second-hand fixed assets and sales of scrapped fixed assets and sales of scrapped fixed assets by producers should be deducted from gross fixed capital formation.

Gross fixed capital formation covers the following items: (i) Acquisitions by producers for civilian use of tangible assets which have an estimated lifetime of use • of one year or more, except land, mineral deposits, timber tracts and similar non-reproducible tangible assets.
Relatively inexpensive durable reproducible goods, such as certain types of office 11 • equipment, may on practical grounds be excluded.

Government outlays on construction machinery and durable equipment primarily intended for military use are classified as intermediate consumption rather than gross fixed capital formation.
(ii) Outlays on improvements and alterations of capital goods that significantly extend their expected lifetime of use or sUbstantially increase their productivity are considered to be gross fixed capital formation.

(iii) Outlays on the reclamation and improvement of land, on the development and extension of timber tracts, mines, plantations, orchards, and similar agricultural holdings are included in gross fixed capital formation.
(iv) Purchases and breeding of draught animals, breeding stock, dairy cattle and sheep and other animals raised for wool and hair clips should be treated as acquisitions of fixed assets.

(v) Dealers' margins, solicitors' fees, stamp duties and other transfer costs of transactions in land, mineral deposits, timber tracts and similar non-reproducible assets in tangible non-financial assets and in second-hand assets are covered in gross capital formation.
CHANGES IN INVENTORIES This is equal in principle to the market value at the owning establishment of the physical change during a period of account, in stocks of materials, supplies, work-in-progress except on construction projects, finished products, livestock raised for slaughter and merchandise held by resident industries and in stock of strategic materials and emergency stocks of important products held by government services.
In practice, the closest feasible approximation may be the difference between the levels of these stocks at the beginning and the end of the period, both valued at approximate average prices ruling over the period.
EXPORTS AND IMPORTS OF GOODS AND NON-FACTOR SERVICES This consists of the transactions in goods and services of the residents of a given country with the rest of the world, and covers merchandise, transportation, travel, insurance and other non-factor services, such as government transactions, various fees, rentals, royalties and gifts in kind.

Military equipment transferred between governments may, however, go unrecorded.
Expenditure abroad by residents such as tourists and other persons, seasonal workers and diplomatic and military personnel stationed abroad are treated as imports.

Similarly, expenditures in the domestic territory by non-residents are considered exports.

The valuation of exports and imports is f.o.b.

SOURCES AND METHODS OF ESTIMATING THE GROSS VALUE ADDED IN CURRENT AND CONSTANT PRICES This section provides an overview of the sources and methods used to compile the gross value added for each economic activity in current and constant prices.

AGRICULTURE Agriculture comprises of agricultural crops, bananas, livestock, eggs production, forestry and fishing sub industries.

The gross value added is estimated using the production approach.
Agricultural Crops Agricultural crops in Dominica can be classified into two categories: i. ii.

Export crops, such as bananas, vegetables, tree crops and root crop; Other subsistence crops Bananas Data on bananas were obtained from the Dominica Agricultural Producers and Exporters (DAPEX), formerly Dominica Banana Producers Limited (DBPL) and the National Fairtrade Organisation of Dominica (DNFTO).
The value of output of bananas was derived from the value of fruit purchased by Windward Islands Banana Development and Exporting Company (WIBDECO).

The value of inputs consisted of the total cost of sales of inputs derived by using data from the financial statements of the Input Warehouse.

The double deflation method was used to estimate the constant price estimates for bananas.

This method entails revaluing current year's quantity of bananas purchased at the 2006 base year price.
Inputs were also revalued at base year prices and then deducted from outputs to arrive at the value added at constant prices.

A composite index of the cost of fertilizers was constructed.

The value of inputs in current prices was deflated by the composite index of the cost of fertilizers to derive the value of inputs in constant prices.

The gross value added in constant prices is equal to the value of output at 2006 prices less the value of inputs at 2006 prices.
To derive the current prices for other bananas the value of output was derived from the total value of bananas exported as shown in the trade statistics less the total output from WINFARM multiplied by the average price per pound of bananas in the base year.

The cost of inputs for other bananas was calculated using a ratio of total inputs to the total value of outputs.
A volume index of the quantity of bananas produced was used to extrapolate the base year value added estimates to derive the constant price estimates.

13 Other Crops Gross value added for other agriculture crops was derived by using the production approach.

This method consisted of estimating the total value of agricultural output at producer's prices and subtracting intermediate consumption.
Output was estimated based on major export crops and covers over seventy­ one different crops produced in the country.

Intermediate consumption consists of expenditure on fertilizers, insecticides, seeds, the cost of maintaining and repairing machinery and equipment, fuel, and the purchase of small tools, bags, twine and other minor items.

It was estimated at 18 per cent of the gross value of output.

For constant price estimates, the value of output was revalued at 2006 prices.

A volume index was.
A volume index was.

derived and used to extrapolate the base year value added estimate.

Livestock Data on livestock (cows, eggs and meat production, goats and sheep, poultry, pigs etc.)

were collected from the Ministry of Agriculture-Livestock Division, livestock farmers, trade statistics and others.

Estimates for livestock production were obtained from the 1995 agricultural census, National Farm Register, 2008 and livestock Extension farmers.
The cost of inputs were compiled from data on the local sales of livestock and poultry feed which data on the imports of livestock and poultry feed and chicks which were obtained from the trade statistics and adjusted for death, trade and transport margins to arrive at purchaser's prices.

The gross value added for livestock was computed as the value of output of production of livestock (goats, sheep, pigs etc.)
less the value of inputs (imported livestock feed, locally produced livestock feed, veterinary services etc.)

The gross value added for poultry was computed as the gross value of output of eggs and poultry meat less the value of inputs which consists of imported and locally produced poultry feed and repairs and maintenance and other costs.

The total value added for livestock in current prices is equal to the gross value added for livestock plus the gross value added for egg production.
To derive the constant prices, a volume index of output of the number (cows, goats and sheep, pigs, etc.)

were obtained for each year then multiplied by the base year (2006) value added in current prices to gain value added in constant for each year.

Forestry The value of output for forestry was estimated based on household consumption of charcoal from the HBS and SLC Survey and also using similar sources as a benchmark.

It was assumed that average household uses one sack of charcoal per month.
Intermediate cost was estimated as 5 per cent of gross output.

Current price estimates for forestry were computed as the value of output of production of forestry products (charcoal) less the value of inputs (wood and logs).

The gross value of output of charcoal in constant prices was used to form a volume index to derive the constant price estimates.

[4 FISHING • The fish landed by fishermen were captured for this industry.
The quantity and price of fish landings were provided by the Fisheries Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries and Dominica Export and Importing Agencies (DEXIA).

The gross value added in current prices for fishing was computed as the gross value of output for fish landed less the total inputs which consisted of fuel, tackles, oil etc.

The double deflation method was used to derive the constant prices.

The quantity of fish produced (dolphin, robin, etc.)
were revalued at the base year price and a composite index of inputs (gasoline, oil) was formed to deflate total inputs.

MINING AND'QUARRYING The value of output for mining and quarrying comprised the value of the output of stone and sand.

The current price estimates were derived from the annual National Accounts Survey of establishments (NAS) as well as annual gross wages from DSS which was adjusted to account for employer's contribution and Trade Statistics.
The gross value added in current prices was computed as the value of output less the value of input.

A volume index consisting of quantity of stone and sand exported by companies in the industry was formed to deflate the gross output to derive the constant prices.

MANUFACTURING The manufacturing sector covers the activities related to the production of bakery products, chemicals and related products, beverages, water, wearing apparel, printing and pUblishing, furniture etc.
The value added is now classified in various sub-groups providing a wider coverage of manufacturing activities in Dominica.

The current prices were derived by analyzing the accounting data from the manufacturing establishments provided by the NAS, as well as gross wages and employment data from DSS.

The current price estimation for the construction industry is based on the commodity-flow approach.

A range of construction materials were extracted from the external trade statistics.

The c.Lt values of net imports used for construction were adjusted upwards for duty, VAT, trade and transport margins.
The value of domestic production of construction materials was added to the value of net imports of construction material.

Adjustments were made to exclude construction materials utilized for manufacturing purposes.

The resulting estimates is intermediate consumption which was then used to derive the gross output and value added for the industry.

For the constant prices, an index of the cost of construction was used to deflate the gross value of output.
A volume index of the deflated gross output was then used extrapolate the base year value added.

The cost of construction index consisted of a weighted index of the cost of 13 major building materials and the average labor cost for the different types of construction workers.

The current price estimates for this sector estimated by analyzing the income and expenditure statements received through the annual NAS survey from the establishments which responded to the survey and also the imports data of the major wholesalers and retailers.

This has allowed the commodity method applied to be comprehensive in coverage of the informal.
From both the reported data and the imports data this has allowed for more accurate ratios which facilitated the breakdown of value added among the various sub-sectors.

The 16 constant price estimates were derived by deflating the trade margins by the CPI and deriving a volume index of the deflated values to extrapolate the base year value added.

REAL ESTATE, RENTING AND BUSINESS ACTIVITIES This industry is sub-divided into five sub-groups namely: owner-occupied dwellings; real estate; renting of machinery and equipment; computer and related services; and business services.
Owner-Occupied dwellings and Real Estate (Rented Dwelling) The current price estimates are developed by benchmarking the population and housing census 2001 data on dwellings.

The rental value of tenant - occupied housing and the imputed rental value of owner - occupied housing are both part of housing services, reflecting the amount of money tenants spend for the service of shelter and the amount of money owner occupants would have spent had they been renting.
Value added for owner - occupied housing is calculated as the imputed output of housing services less the expenses associated with owner - occupied housing, such as maintenance and repairs.

The average rental value is observed and applied to the housing stock.

The stock is identified into owners occupied and rented units.

The rental value is moved by the CPI for housing, and is applied to the dwelling stock to derive the value of output.
A fixed ratio is applied to arrive at the value added in current 20 prices.

This procedure result in value added in current prices for both owner occupied dwellings and real estate activities.

The constant price estimates were obtained from a volume index consisting of the number of owner occupied and rented dwellings.

This index was used to extrapolate the base year gross • value added to obtain the constant prices.

Gross value added in current prices was computed as the value of output less intermediate consumption.
Constant price estimates were derived for each sub-group by using data on Consumer Price Index (C.P.I) within the industry to form volume indexes.

These indexes were used to extrapolate the base year value added.

The gross value added for this industry is the summation of the gross value added for each sub group.
PRIVATE HOUSEHOLD WITH EMPLOYED PERSONS This industry includes the activities of households as employers of domestic personnel such as maids, cooks, waiters, valets, butlers, gardeners, gatekeepers, chauffeurs, caretakers, babysitters, tutors, etc.

The product, which is self-consumed, is considered non-market and assessed according to the cost of the personnel in the national accounts.

These services cannot be provided by companies.


As this activity occurs in the household and forms part of the informal sector, it is difficult to collect the required data directly, on an annual basis.

As a result the main source of data was Survey of Living Condition and Household Budgetary Survey 2008/2009 and the records of Dominica Social Security.

Data were obtained on gross wages and salaries and number of employees.
Adjustments were then made to include employers' contribution to obtain the total compensation of employees.

The gross value added in current prices consisted of compensation of employees.

Constant price estimates were compiled from a volume index consisting of the total number of employees within each sub-group.

The base year gross value added was extrapolated by this index to obtain the constant price estimates.

FISIM FISIM stands for financial intermediation services indirectly measured.
In the System of National Accounts it is an estimate of the value of the services provided by financial intermediaries, such as banks, for which no explicit charges are made; instead these services are paid for as part of the margin between rates applied to savers and borrowers.

The supposition is that savers would receive a higher interest rate and borrowers pay a lower interest rate if all financial services had explicit charges.
The 1993 SNA calculated FISIM as the difference between property income receivable and interest payable excluding the value of any property income receivable from the investment of own funds.

The 1993 SNA recognized that in practice it may be difficult to find a method of allocating FISIM among different users and therefore, accepted that some countries may prefer to continue to use the convention whereby the whole of the services are allocated to intermediate consumption of a notional industry.
The 1993 SNA suggests two ways of allocating FISIM to the sectors that consume it.

The preferred method is to use a reference rate of interest, which is a theoretical concept.

The annual reference rate is the interest rate that people must be paid to persuade them to wait one year before spending their income.

The interest rates that are observed on the market are higher than the reference rate because they include a risk factor.

The second method of allocating FISIM is using relevant indicators.
Relevant indicators are the total bank loans to a given sector and the total deposits held by banks from that sector.

Total loans are added to total deposits and each sector's share in total bank loans and bank deposits are used to allocate FISIM.

The 1993 SNA recognizes that these two approaches may not be feasible for all countries because of data constraints.

In the case of Dominica, data on global FISIM was obtained from the annual NAS of financial institutions.
The balance sheet data on total deposits and loans and advances were obtained from the ECCS and were used in the allocation of FISIM.

The sector distribution of depositors and borrowers FISIM was allocated among households, non-residents, government and businesses.

In the allocation of FISIM, an assumption that banks provide the same amount of service for each dollar loaned and deposited was made.
This assumption was made to keep the allocation simple, although we know that FISIM margins vary among various assets and liabilities.

Thus the FISIM allocated to depositors should then be allocated among sectors (household, government, non-residents and businesses) on the basis of their deposit holdings.

Similarly, FISIM allocated to borrowers should be distributed among the sectors on the basis of outstanding loans.
In the case of Dominica data are only available on loan holdings and not deposit holdings.

In the absence of such data on deposit holdings, industry output was used as an allocator.

FISIM in constant prices was derived by deflating the average stock of loans and deposits by the CPI to derive a volume index of loans and deposits and having the base year margin rate applied to the deflated values of loans and deposits.
2012 REVIEW OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITY IN DOMINICA Overview Economic activity in Dominica registered an estimated negative growth of 0.19 percent moving from growth of 1.71 percent in 2011 (Table 2.0).

This negative performance was mainly from declining trends in Wholesale and Retail Trade, Real Estate, Renting & Business Activities, Construction and Mining and Quarrying.

However, growth was recorded in the Agriculture.


Livestock and Forestry, Education, Transport, Storage & Communications and Public Administration, Defence and Social Security.

Total output increased by 1.25 percent primarily from 11.34 percent growth Agriculture, Livestock and Forestry (Table 9.0).
Intermediafe Consumption recorded a 0.54 percent growth with the Agriculture, Livestock and Forestry sector recording the highest growth of 4.86 percent followed by the Transport, Storage & Communications sector recording 2.69 percent growth (Table 10.0).

Agriculture, Livestock and Forestry Sector A 7.47 percent growth was recorded for the Agriculture, Livestock and Forestry sector.

This movement was mainly a result of a sharp 29.0 percent increase in the production of root crop (sweet potatoes.
yams, dasheen and tannias).

Livestock registered 7.15 percent rise primarily due to an 18.82 percent increase in imports of chicks and 12.7 percent increase in egg prices.

However, bananas recorded a sharp 23.46 percent declined resulting from continued effects of black sigatoka disease and dry weather conditions (Table 6.0).
Mining and Quarrying Sector A decreased in production and exports of quarry products resulted in a 15.00 percent drop in the Mining and Quarrying Sector during the year as compared to a 10.00 percent growth in the previous year.

ManUfacturing Sector The Manufacturing sector recorded a rebound in 2012 with a 3.76 percent increase.

This improvement in performance resulted mainly from 17.0 and 5.0 percent increase in production of soap and beverages respectively.
Construction Sector Activity in the Construction sector declined by 6.92 percent following a growth of 4.45 percent in 2011.

This decline in activity resulted mainly from the contraction in public sector construction during 2012.

25 Hotels and Restaurants Activity in the Tourism sector as indicated by hotels and restaurants recorded negative growth of 1.58 percent with mixed movements being recorded at the subsector level (Table 6.0).
Bed nights accommodation at both hotels and guest houses registered a minimal 0.19 percent rise.

However, restaurant activities recorded 3.00 percent drop in hotel business and holiday expenditure.

Transport, Storage and Communications This sector registered a 0.62 percent increase based primarily on favorable movements in road and sea transport sub-sector (Table 6.0).
However, auxiliary transport activities & storage subsectors recorded an 11.95 percent decline largely due to decreases in cargo loaded and landed and passenger arrival and departure.

Financial Intermediation Activity in this sector recorded a 0.66 percent growth, as a result of growth in interest payments and intermediate expenses of banks during the year (Table 6.0).

Real Estate, Renting and Business Activities Mixed movements were noted in this sector which resulted in a net 0.05 percent decline.
This decrease was primarily due to negative growth in business services, 4.40 percent, renting of machinery, 4.16 percent and computer and related services 1.57 percent (Table 6.0).

However, both real estate and • owner-occupied dwellings recorded growth of 0.61 percent.

Education Sector The Education Sector, one of the largest contributing sectors recorded an estimated growth of 1.80 percent, compared to an 8.09 drop in 2011 (Table 6.0).
This improved performance resulted from a 1.91 percent rise in private education services.

Public Administration, Defence &Social Security Growth continued in this sector for a fourth consecutive period recording 0.14 percent in 2012, with social security employment index as the main growth contributor, increasing by an estimated 5.0 percent.
Health and Social Work This sector rebounded from a 0.75 percent negative growth in 2011 to a 2.42 percent increase in 2012, mainly moved by 3.02 percent rise in public health services (Table 6.0).

26 Other Community/Social/Personal Services A 0.55 percent growth was recorded for that sector based primarily on increased economic activities in funeral and related activities, activities of religious organizations and Dramatic Arts, Music and Other Arts activities (Table 6.0).
Private Households with Employed Persons This sector registered a 1.0 percent increase as compared to 7.01 percent rise in 2011.

This growth trend was mainly due to continued increase in persons employed in private homes (Table 6.0).
