Supplementary notes

The sources defines the compensation of labour as: 'wages of employees and social contributions paid by employers and an attributed share of labour compensation for the self-employed, less the subsidies on wages provided by the government.'

The source adds: 'the official SN calculations use an ex ante interest rate based on the internal reference rate of banks and a risk premium for calculating capital services. The model allows for profits to be made as opposed to the neoclassical model.'

The market sector is made up of all branches, except for real estate, education, public administration and services and the activities of households as employers and for their own use.
