Motivation: For the components of the expenditure approach to gross domestic product for the country of Ghana, multi-national sources report limited history at an annual frequency.
Response: For international consistency, we have estimated a full set of the components of GDP(E), at current and constant prices (a.k.a. nominal and real terms) and deflators, at a quarterly frequency.
Properties:
- Measurement: Millions of Ghanaian cedi, at current prices (Mil. GHS) or constant year-2006 prices (Mil. 2006 GHS), or deflators indexed to 2006
- Adjustment: Seasonally adjusted annual rate (SAAR)
- Frequency: Quarterly
- Start date: 1960Q1 for current prices, 1970Q1 for constant prices
- Additivity: Aggregates equal the sums of components
- Geo coverage: Nation
The estimates reside in the historical catalog (Ghana » National Accounts » by Expenditure » Moody's Analytics Estimated) and include, for example:
- RNALEGDPAQ.IGHA = Gross domestic product, (Mil. GHS, SAAR)
- RNACECGAQ.IGHA = Government consumption, (Mil. 2006 GHS, SAAR)
- RPDIIAQ.IGHA = Deflator - Gross capital formation, (Index 2006=100, SA)
Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.
