Tourism Satellite Account: 2009

Appendix 5: Tourism industry concordance

Within the national accounting system, industries are defined as a group of producers that supply particular goods or services. Instead of producing goods or services, the tourism ‘industry’ is defined by the particular group of consumers – tourists – who purchase its output. Tourism industry information is more aggregated in a provisional tourism satellite account than it is for a final tourism satellite account. This is shown in table 16.
