Motivation: For the components of the expenditure approach to gross domestic product for the country of Nigeria, 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 Nigerian naira, at current prices (Mil. NGN) or constant year-2005 prices (Mil. 2005 NGN), or deflators indexed to 2005
• Adjustment: Seasonally adjusted annual rate (SAAR)
• Frequency: Quarterly
• Start date: 1960Q1 for GDP, 1970Q1 for components
• Additivity: Aggregates equal the sums of components
• Geo coverage: Nation

The estimates reside in the historical catalog (Nigeria » National Accounts » by Expenditure » Moody's Analytics Estimated) and include, for example:

• RNALEGDPAQ.INGA = Gross domestic product, (Mil. NGN, SAAR)
• RNACECGAQ.INGA  = Government consumption, (Mil. 2005 NGN, SAAR)
• RPDIIAQ.INGA    = Deflator - Gross capital formation, (Index 2005=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.
