I. Introduction
• Korean System of National Accounts
– Introduction of 1993 SNA in 2004 at the time of the 9th
rebasing from 1995 to 2000
– Additional implementation to 1993 SNA at the time of the
10th rebasing from 2000 to 2005
E.g. introduction of chain-linking method, recognition of
valuables as a separate item of gross capital formation
– 2008 SNA intended to be introduced in 2014 at the time of
the 11th rebasing from 2005 to 2010
I. Introduction
• Three aspects from which Korean National Accounts
statistics are measured
– Production, Expenditure, Distribution
– Broadly known as production approach, expenditure
approach and income approach
• The final GDP aggregates are determined as GDP by
production activities.
I. Introduction
• GDP by production
– Data sources : survey data from the Statistics Korea, the BOK’s self
survey data and administrative data from government agencies such as
the National Tax Services (NTS)
• GDP by expenditure
– Data sources : survey data from the Statistics Korea, corporate financial
statement, administrative data, customs clearance statistics and BOP
statistics, etc
• GDP by income(compiled annually for nominal value)
– Data sources : GDP estimates by production and expenditure, data from
government and social security agencies, administrative data from the
NTS, business analysis data and employment statistics

II. GDP by Expenditure Approach
• Conventional Estimating Process by Commodity
Flow Method (CFM)
– Calculate domestic gross output in production side
– Derive total final demand by adding imports and deducting
intermediate consumption and exports
– Calculate each expenditure item by multiplying the total
final demand by the weight of each item stemmed from I/O
table in base year

II. GDP by Expenditure Approach
• Problems revealed in CFM approach
– Lack of independence in the estimates for some expenditure
components of GDP
• Introduction of new statistical techniques employing
both the supply-side and the demand-side statistics
– Identifying economic trends more accurately by coping with changing
statistical environments and by incorporating much more statistical data
– Enhancing accuracy, reliability of statistics, and transparency
– Ensuring objectivity of the estimation process recommended by IMF
III. Estimation Method of the Final
Consumption Expenditure of Household
• Calculate base year and annual(final) figures based on
consumer expenditure data
• Calculate annual(preliminary) figures by sum of quarterly
(preliminary) figures
• Calculate quarterly (preliminary) figures by extrapolating
alternative indicators with the year-on-year rates of change
from the same period of the previous year
– Nominal figures by item and the total are estimated; then real figures
are calculated using a deflation method (deflator=mainly CPI)

III-i. Estimation Method in Reference year
Final consumption expenditure of household
= Total expenditure in domestic market
– Direct purchases in domestic market
by non-resident households
+ Direct purchases abroad by resident households
III-i. Estimation Method in Reference year
• Total expenditure in domestic market
– Total expenditure of goods
• Estimated based on sales by industry using ratios of selling to
household consumers in ‘the Census of Service Industry’
• Disaggregated for expenditures by item using ‘Household
Income & Expenditure Survey’ and other sources
– Total expenditures on services
• Based on ‘the Census of Service Industry’, ‘Household
Income & Expenditure Survey’, and et cetera
III-i. Estimation Method in Reference year
• Direct purchases abroad by residents
/Direct purchases in domestic market by non-residents
– Compiled based on the estimates of the external transaction
account
– Estimate data by reclassifying “Balance of Payments
statistics (e.g. travel services and credit card usage)”
III-ii. Estimation Method in Current year
• Nominal value estimation method in current year
– Principally calculated in the same method as in reference
year
– Estimated on different grounding sources
E.g. ‘Whole and Retail Trade Survey’, ‘The Service Industry Survey’,
‘The Service Industry Activity Index’, et cetera (instead of ‘The
Census of Services Industry’)
III-ii. Estimation Method in Current year
• Real value estimation in current year
– Estimated by dividing nominal value into related deflators
– Nominal value exists under the COICOP classification
system
– Add up nominal and real values by COICOP code to obtain
the final consumption expenditure of households by
purpose and by type
III-ii. Estimation Method in Current year
• Direct Purchases by residents and non-residents
– Compiled based on external transaction account estimates
– Deflators for Direct Purchases Abroad by Residents:
Exchange-rate adjusted consumer price index of major
travel countries
– Deflators for Direct Purchases in Domestic Market by Nonresidents : Domestic consumer price index
V. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
• Differences between National Accounts Statistics and
Household Income & Expenditure Survey :
① Coverage (by subjects or by items)
② Bias due to the limitation of sampling method
③ Classification system
 Limited compatibility between National Account and
Household Income & Expenditure Survey (HIES)
Ⅳ. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
① Coverage by Subjects
• National Accounts : Households + NPISHs
• HIES : Households only!
– In addition, HIES excludes certain households1)
1) Farm and Fishery HHs, Communal HHs and HHs
running restaurant and hotels in their own houses
– The Coverage Ratio is 90.5%
Ⅳ. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
② Bias inherent in Sampling Method (HIES)
• Non-response rate tends to be high in high-income HHS.
– On average, non-response rate was 18.9% in 2008
• Under-reporting could happen, especially in :
– Income : Self-employment income, property income
– Consumption : Sin item (i.e. tobacco, alcoholic beverages)
• Sampling bias has been reported frequently in many
comparative studies carried out in many OECD countries.
Ⅳ. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
③ Different Classification Systems
• Classification Systems are different
– Ex) Withdrawal from income of Quasi-corporations :
Property Income (National Accounts) vs.
Income for Self-Employment (HIES)
Ⅳ. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
 USE of HIES in Compiling GDP statistics
• Total amount of income/expenditure/savings : Pointless
• Absolute value by item level : Limited
• Desirable to use detailed goods/service-level
information(mainly increase rate) of HIES
to estimate National Accounts
Ⅳ. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
 USE of HIES : Income Sector
• HIES mainly as a reference
• Only a few items* are directly applicable
Household Survey
Current transfers between households (in current transfer paid)
↓
National Accounts
Current transfers between households (in other current transfers)
Ⅳ. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
 USE of HIES : Personal Consumption Sector
• HIES is More useful than Income Sector because :
– Many items are comparable in concepts or in classification
system between HIES and Personal Consumption
– Subdivision of HIES items are most detailed
• Use of item-level absolute value (Benchmark year) :
– Private tutoring fee, residence related services, household
services, and etc. (of course, after parameterization)
Ⅳ. Household Income & Expenditure Survey
 USE of HIES : Personal Consumption Sector (cont’d)
• Use of weights information among items :
– ‘clothing and footwear related services’, ‘furniture,
furnishings and household equipment and operation related
services’, and etc.
– First, Estimate total amount based on ‘the Census of Service
Industry’ and apply the HIES weights
• Use of increase rate :
– In most items
– Retail Control Method : determine total amount based on
other statistics such as ‘Whole and Retail Trade Survey’
