In general, the data in the Handbook are for 1960, 1965, and 1973-78. Data for the Commu- nist and non-Communist countries have been adjusted, when necessary, to achieve comparabil- ity and therefore may differ from data presented in the original sources. Footnotes have been used liberally to give definitions, exceptions, and methodology. The base year for average annual rates of growth is the year prior to the stated period. Rounding of the Totals The totals have been rounded, with some excep- tions, to three significant digits. In general, zeros appearing after the last nonzero number follow- ing the decimal point are not significant but are used merely for consistency in presentation, and, because of rounding, components may not add to the totals shown. Totals are not presented if missing data are believed to represent a signifi- cant part of the total. Symbols The abbreviation N.A. (not available) is used when information about the existence of the data or the magnitude of the data is not available, and the abbreviation Negl. (negligible) is used when the magnitude of the data is less than one-half of the final unit employed for each table. Sources The data given for the most recent years are frequently~teliminarv an~su_ sect to rev i~o~ The data for the Communist countries are CIA estimates, official data from the country cited, or estimates made by other organizations. The data for the non-Communist countries are from publi- cations of the United Nations and the Organiza- tion for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), publications of US Government agen- cies, orunclassified publications of other interna- tional organizations or individual countries, or are estimates of this Office. Terms Unless otherwise indicated, the term Communist Countries includes the USSR, the countries of Eastern Europe, China, North Korea, Vietnam, Albania, Cuba, and Yugoslavia; the term East- ern Europe includes Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Romania.

Noren, "US and USSR: Comparisons of GNP," in US Congress, Joint Economic Committee, The Soviet Economy in a Time ojChange (Washing- ton, D.C., 1979). Data for other years were derived by moving 1976 Soviet GNP in dollars (geometric mean) through time by indexes of Soviet GNP in 1976 established ruble prices. This shortcut proce- dure gives results that are quite close to those obtained through the more complex procedures used for the benchmark years of the study-1955, 1965, 1975-77. A detailed discussion of estimating Soviet GNP in 1976 US dollars is available in the study cited above. 'The dollar values of gross national product are not official figures. They are estimates based on Western concepts and proce- dures, which compare as closely as possible to values published by Western countries. Estimates of GNP in domestic prices were converted at US purchasing power equivalent and extended to 1978 by means of the US official deflator for GNP. For additional information, see T. P. Alton, "Comparative Structure and Growth of Economic Activity in Eastern Europe," in US Congress, Joint Economic Committee, East European Economics Post-Helsinki: A Compendium oJPapers (Washington, D.C., 1977).

These 1970 GDP parities were moved to 1978 by applying the following factor: the derived price index for each OECD country for 1970-78 divided by a derived price index for the United States for 1970-78. These price indexes were derived for each country by dividing the growth of GNP in current prices by the growth of GNP in constant prices. The ratios thus obtained were applied to the GNP values, given in the national currencies in 1978 prices. 2 For the individual European OECD countries, the ratios for converting GNP in national currencies at 1978 prices into 1978 US dollars on the basis of US purchasing power equivalents are derived from the 1950 ratios in Milton Gilbert and Associates, Comparative National Products and Price Levels, OEEC, Paris, 1958, using the geometric mean of European and US weighted ratios. These 1950 ratios were moved to 1978 by applying the following factor: the derived price index for each European country for 1950-78 divided by a derived price index for the United States for 1950-78. The ratios thus obtained were applied to the GNP values, given in the national currencies in 1978 prices.

Total Soviet GNP and the various end uses were converted to dollars not by the official rate of exchange but by the average purchasing power ratio of the dollar and the ruble calculated from actual or estimated prices paid for various goods and services in the two economies. For GNP as a whole and for each end-use component of GNP, these average ratios (ruble-dollar ratios) were estimated by weighting individual price ratios by both US and Soyyet~e,~diture weights. The resources devoted to a particular en use or the share of total output originating in an individual sector (for example, agriculture or industry) in the USSR should be measured in internal ruble prices and costs. The end uses of GNP are defined as follows: (l) Consumption comprises personal expenditures for goods and services for all purposes and noninvestment outlays by govern- ment for goods and services for health and education. (2) New fixed investment is defined as the sum of expenditures for gross private domestic investment net of inventories; for public construction other than that for military facilities; and for equip- ment purchased by the government except that for defense. Since part of new fixed investment in the United States is capital repair, one-half of Soviet expenditures on capital repair is included in Soviet new fixed investment. (3) Defense outlays include expenditures on military equip- ment, construction, personnel (excluding transfer payments in the form of pensions), maintenance, RDT&E, and defense-related atomic energy programs. Outlays on space programs comparable to those funded by NASA have been added. (4) Other government expenditures for the USSR include expenditures on defense, research and development, civil space, inventory change, administration, net exports, and a statistical discrepancy. Administration includes expenditures on civilian inter- nal security, general agricultural programs, public organizations, government administration, and social welfare. Other government expenditures for the United States include defense, administration, net exports and military assistance, outlays for space R&D, change in inventories and stockpile, and a statistical discrepancy. Adminis- tration is the residual left after all current expenditures for national defense, health, education, and all capital expenditures are sub- tracted from government purchases of goods and services. : The sum of the end-use components of Soviet GNP, valued in dollars, does not equal the dollar value of aggregate GNP, because of the use of average ruble-dollar ratios in converting from ruble values to dollar values.

In general, the gross value of production equals the sum of the value of output of all industrial enterprises. As a result, since both intermediate and final goods are included in the value of output of each enterprise, industrial products are double-counted. If, as the evidence suggests, interme- diate product (for example rolled metal) increases relative to final product (for example machine tools) inflation of output from increased double-counting takes place. In addition to inflation in the official indicator from this source, disguised inflation also enters the index through new-product pricing, where minor product improvements result in anew-product price that is substantially higher than can be justified by either improved quality or increased production costs. Because output of these "new" products grows from a small base, their rates of growth will proceed at a higher rate than those of "old" products. Adjusted indexes of industrial production-parallel to those used by the Federal Reserve Board for measuring US industrial out- put-are constructed in order to circumvent most of these distor- tions, that is, price-weighted samples of several final products form output indexes for various industrial components and these compo- nent indexes are combined into an aggregate index for industry by use of value-added weights. An official index is not published. ' An adjusted index is not available.

Industry includes manufacturing, mining, and, in most countries, public utilities. The indexes for the Communist countries are estimates of CIA (see Table 18 for detailed explanation)--con- structed as nearly as possible on the same basis as the indexes for Western countries-or other calculations accepted by CIA.

This index is as comparable as data will permit with the index of US industrial production of the US Federal Reserve Board. CIA estimates were computed by applying value-added weights to data for commodity production. The data are fragmentary and uncertain; therefore,the index should be regarded as providing only a tentative indication of the general level and trend in production. 123 121 110 116 144 145 144 130 126 121 158 183 135 139 135 125 123 114 119 149 149 151 134 131 125 163 194 ~ -

The current price index is based on the values of total retail and collective farm market sales in current prices regularly pub- lished in Soviet statistical abstracts. The index in constant prices is derived from the goods components of the CIA index of total consumption. A more complete explanation of the methodology and a discussion of the relative merits of an "official" or "alternative" price index are contained in "Soviet Economy in a New Perspec- tive," US Congress, Joint Economic Committee, 14 October 1976, p. 631. 'Calculated differently from that for the USSR; the official index of personal consumption in current prices was deflated by a calculated index of personal consumption in constant prices. An explanation of the methodology used to calculate personal con- sumption is presented in T. P.
