Notes
General: The national accounts estimates are subject to revision as more historical information becomes available, particularly the estimates for recent years
* As defined for the national accounts and published in the National Income and Expenditure Blue Book; before deducting depreciation and interest and net of trading losses. These figures differ from income from trading as recorded for tax purposes, particularly for financial institutions. In the table non-trading income of financial companies is given separately since trading profits, as defined for the national accounts, exclude all receipts of interest. Figures of profits for 1980 are tentative.
† Stock relief claimed by financial institutions is negligible.
‡ Net of balancing charges: capital allowances "biting" against profits in the same year are lower for the companies sector.
** Net of stock relief withdrawn: stock relief "biting" against profits in the same year is lower for the companies sector.
● Consolidated for each subsector, i.e. excluding payments between companies in the same subsector. For manufacturing companies, estimates not available before 1967. Since then the estimates (which are not available from tax date) have been derived by applying an appropriate rate of interest to the estimated average level of advances made to companies in the manufacturing sector. They are therefore very tentative, particularly for 1980.
■As assessed to income tax under Schedule D Cases I and II. Income from non-trading activities, which is also assessed to tax, is excluded. For years prior to 1973 the figures include small estimated amounts of profits not assessed because the taxpayers' total income were too small.
