Dashboard on annual estimates of GDP

Last Updated:

The annual estimate of GDP can dig into GDP in more detail than the quarterly flash report, and is used for analyzing economic trends and considering and planning policies. Digital Agency is working with Cabinet Office to develop a dashboard to make this annual estimate easier to understand and use.
Assumptions about GDP (such as data series classifications and the relationships between real, nominal, and deflators) are summarized in ": What you need to know to understand the GDP Dashboard."

We are conducting a survey to improve this dashboard. Please use the form below to send us your opinions.

1. Looking at GDP on the expenditure side

Figures for GDP on the expenditure side in the annual estimates

Actual and year-on-year changes in GDP on the expenditure side in the annual estimates are as follows:

Transition and breakdown of GDP

You can see the real and year-on-year changes in GDP over time, as well as the real and year-on-year breakdown (by demand category).

  • *Year-on-year changes in private and public inventories are not calculated because the actual amounts could be zero.

Breakdown of each demand item

GDP is made up of the sum of consumption, investment, and imports and exports by the private sector and the government, which are classified and itemized in detail.
Here you can see the actual value of the breakdown of GDP by the main demand components, as well as year-on-year comparisons and deflators.
It is also possible to look only at government final consumption expenditure in a more detailed 69 classifications.

  • *Direct overseas purchases by resident households and direct domestic purchases by non-resident households are also called outbound and inbound, respectively.
  • *This dashboard does not deal with the final consumption expenditure of private final consumption expenditure for household private non-profit organizations.
  • *The year-on-year changes of some items are automatically calculated from the actual values of the published figures.

Changes from the previous year

Year-on-year changes in GDP and its breakdown (demand items) over time are shown in the heat map.

  • *Year-on-year changes in private and public inventories are not calculated because the actual amounts could be zero.
  • *This heat map is automatically colored so that the color is strongest above + 5% or below -5%.

Changes in the degree of contribution

Time-Series trends of GDP, its breakdown (demand items), and contributions of domestic and external demand are shown in a heat map.
We can look at whether certain demand items contributed significantly to the increase or decrease in GDP, or whether any demand item contributed in the same direction overall.

  • *This heat map is automatically colorized to be darkest above + 1% or below -1%.

2. Looking at GDP on the production side

Trends in GDP and each industry

The chart shows the share of each industry in GDP, the actual amount of GDP, year-on-year change, and the GDP deflator over time. A more detailed breakdown can be found for agriculture, forestry, and fisheries; manufacturing; electricity, gas, water, and waste disposal; wholesale and retail trade; information and communications; and real estate.

  • *Due to differences in estimation methods, GDP on the expenditure and production sides do not always match.

Changes from the previous year

Year-on-year changes in each industry are shown in a heat map.

  • *This heat map is automatically colored so that the color is strongest above + 5% or below -5%.

3. Looking at distribution-side GDP

GDP and Trends by Item

It provides a time-series breakdown of the value added by production activities (GDP) in terms of actual value, composition, and year-on-year change. It provides a more detailed breakdown of employee compensation, operating surplus and mixed income, and taxes imposed on production and imported goods.

  • *By definition, the distributive series is estimated so that the total value of its subcomponents agrees with GDP on the production side (gross domestic product (including discrepancy)). However, due to differences in estimation methods, it does not always agree with GDP on the expenditure side (gross domestic product).
  • *Year-on-year changes and year-on-year changes are calculated automatically based on actual amounts.
  • *Because subsidies are deductions, the component ratio is shown as a negative figure.
