Three approaches to measuring GDP

The three methods to calculating GDP (with links to Eurostat definitions) are:

  1. The output approach
  2. The expenditure approach
  3. The income approach

The figures for each are in the Non-Financial Institutional Sector Accounts publication from the CSO’s National Accounts Section.  In 2011, nominal GDP for Ireland was estimated be to be just under €159 billion.  The following three tables extract the figures (by sector where relevant) from the 2011 ISAs for the three approaches.  Click each to enlarge.
