It then describes the accounts of institutional sectors, including current accounts, accumulation accounts, and balances. It also analyzes concepts such as production valuation, timing of operation recording, and the two notions of final consumption. Finally, it reviews the household sector, including its accounts and final consumption, and provides a definition.

I. FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS

1.1. FUNCTIONAL UNITS


Institutional units can have different functions (perform different
activities). This activity is characterized by three elements:
Some inputs of goods and services
A productive process
Some products obtained (output)

If we arrange these activities of an institutional unit according to the added value, we


You will be able to distinguish the main activity, which is the one that generates the most added value, and the
secondary activity which would be the others.

In addition, a unit can perform auxiliary activities whose production is not intended
its use outside of the unit; a support activity aimed at creating the
favorable conditions that allow the development of the main activity and the secondary ones.

1.2. ACCOUNTS OF INSTITUTIONAL SECTORS

1.2.1. COMPLETE SEQUENCE OF ACCOUNTS

a) Current accounts; they deal with production, generation, distribution, and redistribution.
a of income and its use in the form of final consumption

b) Accumulation accounts; those that reflect the variations of assets with liabilities
a and the variations of net worth.
c) Balances; they show the stocks of assets and liabilities and the net value

1.2.2 INTEGRATED ECONOMIC ACCOUNTS

The integrated economic accounts constitute the core of the accounting framework of current
accounting systems; these have the ability to associate the accounts of the sectors and
of the total economy. These accounts do not include financial accounts either
They include accounts of other variations of assets or non-financial balances.

1.3. CONCEPTUAL CLARIFICATIONS

1.3.1 VALUATION OF PRODUCTION AND INTERMEDIATE CONSUMPTIONS

As has been seen, the type of production determines the type of producer and this causes a
institutional unit is classified within a sector, that is to say, market prices are the
basic reference for valuation. It was also seen that there are 3 classes of valuation (to the
basic prices, producer prices, and buyer prices) that differ from each other
for the taxes and subsidies on the products.

Intermediate consumption is always valued at buyer prices; which are


directly observable by users of the goods.

1.3.2 MOMENT OF RECORDING SOME OPERATIONS

There are different criteria for recording flows: cash basis; maturity basis
payment; payment commitment; and accrual criteria.

All these criteria have their advantages and disadvantages and are used for different purposes in
in the core of companies, in the case of accounts, the accrual criterion is prioritized.
1.3.3 THE TWO CONCEPTS OF FINAL CONSUMPTION

The system talks about:

a) Final consumption expenditure; carried out by the resident institutional units in


goods and services used to directly satisfy needs
individual or collective; this can be carried out by units of the sectors
homes and the general government eISFLSH.
b) Effective final consumption; includes the goods and services acquired by units.
institutional to directly satisfy human needs whether they are
individual or collective. Only households and units can carry it out.

II. HOUSEHOLD SECTOR

2.1. DEFINITION AND SUBSECTORING

2.1.1. DEFINITION
Formed by individuals or a group of individuals who collectively assume

2.1.2. SUBSECTORING
It can be subsectorized according to the income category of each household taking into account

CAPITAL TRANSFERS

In the capital account, the first entry to comment on is the capital transfers to
charge and pay. The account balance is the net loan – net indebtedness; which is
the amount that the sector has available to finance other sectors.

Final Consumption of Households

CASH
There are three sectors (households, public administrations, and Non-Profit Institutions Serving Households) with the capacity to spend.
in final consumption. In contrast, there are only two sectors that can engage in final consumption.
this is the household and public administrations.

2.3.2 FUNCTIONAL AND SPATIAL COVERAGES OF CONSUMPTION

a) FUNCTIONAL: Final consumption expenditure of households includes all those goods


and services including rental services of homes occupied by their owners
which is not considered intermediate consumption.

4
b) SPATIAL: Ultimately, it is about defining the national and internal concepts of
final consumption of households.

INTERNAL CONSUMPTION: (A) + (C)

NATIONAL CONSUMPTION: (A) + (B)

NATIONAL CONSUMPTION: INTERNAL CONSUMPTION + (B)–(C) = (A) + (B)

Where (A): final consumption of resident households carried out in the economic territory of the country

final consumption of resident households made in the rest of the world

final consumption of non-resident households carried out in the economic territory of the country

TO THE HOUSEHOLDS AND NON-FINANCIAL SOCIETIES SECTORS

The procedures can be grouped into three categories.

intermediaries, remuneration of wage earners, etc.
The procedure is based on assigning a priority character and obtaining the remaining ones.
as a result of operating the above
b) DIRECT ASSIGNMENT; it applies in transactions such as remuneration for the
employees. In this procedure, the information coming from the various
sources are used to obtain the added value
c) MATRIX ASSIGNMENT; it applies to interest transactions, dividends, etc.
These are transactions that exchange between all sectors in such a way that
a value must be assigned for the transaction.
3.3.2. CONSUMPTION OF FIXED CAPITAL

Represents the amount of fixed assets consumed as a result of depreciation.


normal, it should be calculated for all tangible and intangible fixed assets, such
such as expenses in mining and oil exploration, based on stocks of
fixed assets and the probable average economic lifespan of the different categories of
these goods.

It is calculated according to the linear amortization method, through which the value of the
Fixed assets are amortized at a constant rate throughout the useful life of the asset.

IV. THE FINANCIAL SOCIETIES SECTOR

4.1 DEFINITION AND SUBSECTORING

6
It includes all societies and quasipartnerships that are primarily dedicated to the
financial intermediation. Financial intermediation consists of channeling funds between the
institutional units that have an excess of funds and those that lack them.

financial intermediary in the form of risk compensation.

4.2 MONETARY FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS (MFI)

4.2.1 INDIRECTLY MEASURED FINANCIAL INTERMEDIATION SERVICES


(SIFMI):

What these institutions do instead of charging them directly for the services of
intermediation is reducing the interest rates they pay on deposits.

4.2.2 OLD ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF SIFMI:

The SCN 93' and 95' conventionally define the difference between total revenues
from the property received by the unit that remains in service and the total of the interest paid
for that unit. This conventional treatment requires making adjustments in the
accounts of the IFM.

4.2.3 NEW ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF SIFIMI


It refers to the process by which a financial institution accepts deposits from units that want to
receive interest on the deposited funds. The bank provides a mechanism
through which the first unit lends funds to the second. Both pay a rate to
bank for the service provided.

4.3 INSURANCE COMPANIES AND PENSION FUNDS

Its basic function is the compensation of risks, which can be classified into two.
large categories: the so-called social insurance systems (A) and the other insurances (B)
