• REFERENCE PERIOD:  Period to which the information refers and which may be a specific day or a time interval (month, fiscal year, calendar year, among others).
• GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT AT MARKET PRICES (GDPmp):  Gross domestic product at market prices is the final result of the production activity of resident producer units. It can be defined in three ways: 1) GDPmp is the sum of gross value added of the various institutional sectors or the various industries plus taxes and less subsidies on products (which are not allocated to sectors and industries). It is also the balancing item in the total economy production account; 2) GDPmp is the sum of final uses of goods and services by resident institutional units (actual final consumption and gross capital formation), plus exports and minus imports of goods and services; 3) GDP is the sum of uses in the total economy generation of income account (compensation of employees, taxes on production and imports less subsidies, gross operating surplus and mixed income of the total economy). By deducting consumption of fixed capital from GDP, we obtain net domestic product at market prices (NDPmp).
