IEA Pocket Charts, Panel A-2/right:  GNP Cumulation -- Expenditure Side (% of GNP)
(for further explanation, see the main Panel A-2 page; see also the left side of this panel)

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.
