Table explanation


In the national accounts gross domestic product is approached from three points of view: from the output, from the generation of income and from the final expenditure. Gross domestic product is a main macroeconomic indicator. The volume change of gross domestic product is a measure for the economis growth of a country.

This table presents annual data on the output components, the final expenditure categories and the income components of gross domestic product of the Netherlands.

The above mentioned macroeconomic variables are presented in:

- Value at current prices, mln euro
- Value at prices of 2005, mln euro
- Volume changes on to previous year, %
- Price indices 2005 = 100

Data available from 1969 to 2012

Description topics

GDP from the output
The approach of GDP from the output.
Value at current prices
The amounts are expressed at prices of the reporting year concerned.
Gross value added basic prices
Value added at basic prices by industry is equal to the difference between output (basic prices) and intermediate consumption (purchasers' prices). Industries are classified according to the standard classification of economic activities SIC 2008.
R-U Culture, recreation, other services
Culture, recreation, other services
Value at prices of 2005
The amounts are expressed at prices of the reference year 2005.
Gross value added basic prices
Value added at basic prices by industry is equal to the difference between output (basic prices) and intermediate consumption (purchasers' prices). Industries are classified according to the standard classification of economic activities SIC 2008.
R-U Culture, recreation, other services
Culture, recreation, other services
Volume changes on previous year
The weighted average of the changes in the quantity and quality of the components of a certain goods or service transaction or balancing item, annual percentage changes.

R-U Culture, recreation, other services
Culture, recreation, other services
Price indices 2005 =100
The weighted average of the price changes of the components of a certain variable. Deflators relative to the reference year 2005.

GDP from the final expenditure
The approach of GDP from the final expenditure (final consumption
expenditure, fixed capital formation (gross), changes in inventories,
exports and imports).
Value at current prices
The amounts are expressed at prices of the reporting year concerned.
National final expenditure
The total of final consumption expenditure, fixed capital formation (gross) and changes in inventories.
Total gross national final expenditure
The total of final consumption expenditure, fixed capital formation (gross) and changes in inventories.
Changes in inventories
Inventories consist of all raw materials, semi-manufactured goods, work in progress and final products, that producers have in stock at a certain moment.
Changes in work in progress are in general considered to be changes in inventories. However, work in progress in construction is seen as fixed capital formation of the client and not as changes in inventories of the construction industry. This concerns unfinished buildings and civil engineering works. Increases in inventories occur when goods are produced (or purchased) but not yet sold (or used) in the year under review. Decreases in inventories occur when goods are withdrawn from existing inventories in order to be sold or used in the production process.
The assessment of the changes in inventories is done in such way that gains or losses on inventories caused by price changes are avoided. With this objective the initial and final stock of each good is valued at the same price, namely raw materials at the average purchase price in the period, final products at average sales price and work in progress at the average cost price.
This valuation method prevents output and subsequently value added from being influenced by changes in prices of stocks during the period under review.
Value at prices of 2005
The amounts are expressed at prices of the reference year 2005.
National final expenditure
The total of final consumption expenditure, fixed capital formation (gross) and changes in inventories.
Total gross national final expenditure
The total of final consumption expenditure, fixed capital formation (gross) and changes in inventories.
