- Data Visualization: 71-607-X2018013Description: The infrastructure economic accounts represents a set of statistical statements that record the economic, social and environmental impacts related to the production and use of infrastructure in Canada and each province and territory. The infrastructure economic accounts are organized using a statistical framework that outlines the concepts, classification systems and methods required to construct the accounts. This statistical framework is consistent with the Canadian system of national accounts, Canadian government finance statistics and Canada's balance of payments. This consistency permits users to analyze the infrastructure related statistical statements in the context of economy wide measures such as investment, gross domestic product (GDP), national income and wealth.Release date: 2025-03-14
- Articles and reports: 11F0019M2025001Description: Markups, the ratio of price over marginal cost of a product, can be used as a measure of market power. The increase in markups is associated with lower consumer welfare, increased inefficiency and fewer firm dynamics in an economy. Therefore, it is important to know the dynamic of markups over time. Recently, a wave of “production function” approaches has been used to estimate markups using accounting data at the firm level. However, the literature on firm-level markup estimation suffers from two problems: the lack of a reliable measure of variable input cost and the sample selection bias due to the use of only publicly traded firms. To address these issues, this paper uses firm-level accounting data from the National Accounts Longitudinal Microdata File (NALMF) maintained by Statistics Canada.Release date: 2025-01-21

The concept of satellite accounting was introduced as part of the United-Nations-endorsed System of National Accounts (SNA) in 1993. It provides a way for national accounts statisticians to develop alternative statistics on selected topics that are not represented as such in the SNA. Examples include tourism, the environment, the digital economy, and cooking, childcare and other non-market work done in the home. This paper describes the satellite accounting concept, discusses its strengths and limitations, refers briefly to international experience and provides summaries of eleven satellite accounts that have been built in Canada over the last three decades. Extensive references to more detailed documentation are also provided.

Since March, Canadian governments, federal, provincial and local, along with their associated government business enterprises, have been implementing a wide range of policy measures to address the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of these measures are economic in nature, taking the form of financial transfers and concessional loans to individuals, businesses and other groups. These actions will be reflected in the national accounts estimates for March and subsequent months, quarters and years. This paper outlines the main policy measures of an economic nature and identifies where their effects will be seen in the accounts.
