IPA 2009 Multi-beneficiary StatisticalCooperation ProgrammeBy branch of economic activity, at aggregated level of 25 branches ( i ), and for aunit of time ( t ) we can obtain the value of output and Intermediate Consumption (bybranch, i) at prices of previous year, using a respective producer’s price index,adopting the following formula:OUT p-1 i ,t= [(OUT p i,t / OUT p-1 i,t-1 ) / PPI i,t ] * OUT p-1 i,t-1IC p-1 i ,t= [(IC p i,t / IC p-1 i,t-1 ) / PPI i,t ] * IC p-1 i,t-1In the industrial economic activities, PPI is used to deflate output and intermediateconsumption as well, due to lack of information on deflators for the later component.12.1.3 ConstructionThe volume of the value added within construction activity is obtained by deflatingthe value of the output of production and intermediate consumption by the total ofconstruction cost index (CCI). The formula is the same as in the deflation process ofthe industry sector, but using CCI as deflator.OUT p-1 i ,t= [(OUT p i,t / OUT p-1 i,t-1 ) / CCI i,t ] * OUT p-1 i,t-1IC p-1 i ,t= [(IC p i,t / IC p-1 i,t-1 ) / CCI i,t ] * IC p-1 i,t-112.1.4 Internal tradeAs regards internal trade activity, the output and intermediate consumption weredeflated with CPI for goods as follows:OUT p-1 i ,t= [(OUT p i,t / OUT p-1 i,t-1 ) / CPI i,t ] * OUT p-1 i,t-1IC p-1 i ,t= [(IC p i,t / IC p-1 i,t-1 ) / CPI i,t ] * IC p-1 i,t-112.1.5 ServicesOther market services are mainly deflated by using appropriate components of CPI.The price indices used to deflate the output of other services are listed in thefollowing table 12.1.5.148/236
