Description topics
- Total amount
- Uses
- Uses are transactions appear which deduces the economic value of sectors.
- Consumption of fixed capital
- The decline in value of fixed assets owned, as a result of normal wear and tear and obsolescence.
For the estimation of the consumption of fixed capital the perpetual inventory method (PIM) is applied. The capital stock at the beginning of the year is brought to replacement value because of price changes. The fixed capital formation during the year is added to this capital stock. Next it is diminished with the value of capital goods discarded. This gives to value of capital stock at the end of the year. The consumption of fixed obtained by applying a depreciation percentage.
This method may differ considerably from the method used to calculate depreciation in business accounts, which is based on historical costs or fiscal life span.
