Panel A-2 (full-width)
GNP CUMULATION -- Income Side (% of GNP)

Also available: a small-scale version for full-width on-screen viewing, and full-size left and right halves for full-size printing.
To print this page, use landscape mode with a 50% reduction factor.

Note: parenthetic cross references in titles are to other charts (panel.series) of the same data -- though perhaps not the same ratio.

Chart-specific notes (footnotes to series names)

Ratios to GNP are calculated in current-$ values. Although it would be preferable to use Capacity GNP (as is done on the expenditure side, shown in Panel A-1), actual GNP is used on the income side because there is as yet no satisfactory way to allocate the GNP Gap (A-1.17) to the various incomes.

10. Includes post office, local utilities, and other government enterprises.

11. Includes Business Transfers and Statistical Discrepancy, less Net Subsidy of Government Enterprises.

12. Income and social security taxes are not included here because there is as yet no satisfactory way to allocate them among the various income groups.

13. Mainly state and local government sales and property taxes.

14. With capital consumption adjustment.

15. These income concepts exclude capital gains from appreciation in the value of business inventories, capital equipment, housing, land and corporate stock.

General notes

This is one of over 20 chart panels taken as a sample from the 1977 Annual Historical Supplement of IEA Pocket Charts. The compact and analytically advanced economic charts feature the following analytical features:

"Flat horizontal" presentation, as growth rates or ratios to GDP -- to facilitate comparisons of different time periods and series
Fluctuations shaded to "normal" lines -- made possible by such presentation
Smoothing -- quarterly centered moving averages to eliminate "zig-zag noise"
Economic conditions displayed for context as vertical bands or lines (see Economic Fluctuations Viewed in Growth Perspective for definitions of these terms), clearly illustrated in chart Panel 1:
- recessions by light shading
- periods of stagnation by stippling
- absolute "contractions" (as defined by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER)) by dashed lines
