Statistical presentation

Data description

The statistics are annual and consists of a set of tables, based on customized tabulations of existing statistics - designed to inform analysis of resource productivity.

• The tables RP01 and RP2 are based on the National Accounts and contains data on key economic variables (intermediate consumption, production per intermediate consumption, gross value added per intermediate consumtion) by industry groups as well as commodity groups. In table RP01 the commodity groups are based on HS, harmonized systems - while in RP02, the commodities are grouped by degree of processing (raw materials, intermediate and final goods).
• The table RP03 is a special table based on the statistics on Manufacturers' purchases of goods, with the goods classified according to degree of processing.
• The table RP05 describes the structure of costs for industries, e.g. how much costs for consumption of goods makes up as part of total costs.
• The table RP06 contains energy and waste intensities for industry groups. These are indicators of how much energy is consumed / waste is generated - per unit of production and gross value added.

Detailed information on the statistics used for creating the RP tables are in their respective Documentation of statistics. That is for RP01, RP02, RP05 National Accounts - input, output tables, for RP03 Manufacturers' purchases of goods and services, Accounts statistics for non-agricultural private sector, and for RP06 it is Energy accounts and Waste Accounts.
