About this data
Total supply refers to the sum of output produced in the territory and imports of all goods and services in the economy, which is broken down by type of product. Purchasers’ prices refer to the prices paid by the buyer. For each product, the indicator is calculated as: Imports of the product / Total supply at purchasers’ prices of the same product. This indicator is calculated by the OECD from the Supply table reported to the OECD by countries in their answers to the Supply and Use questionnaire. The dataset corresponds to SNA_TABLE45 dataset in the previous dissemination system.
