  • Other items > Gross domestic income > Constant LCU: Gross domestic income is derived as the sum of GDP and the terms of trade adjustment. Data are in constant local currency.
  • Other items > Terms of trade adjustment > Constant LCU: The terms of trade effect equals capacity to import less exports of goods and services in constant prices. Data are in constant local currency.
  • Value added > Agriculture > Value added > Constant LCU: Agriculture corresponds to ISIC divisions 1-5 and includes forestry, hunting, and fishing, as well as cultivation of crops and livestock production. Value added is the net output of a sector after adding up all outputs and subtracting intermediate inputs.
