This project is a continuation of work on the development of a world-wide system of national accounts. The present system by sponsored by the United Nations is the major source of standardized empirical information about prices and quantities of the economies of nearly all free standing political subdivisions of the world. This system of accounts is invaluable for most kinds of analysis of individual economies, intertemporally and at a given point in time, but by itself does not provide a basis for comparisons across counties. The major products of this project are two data sets which are directed at making up for this deficiency. The first of these is a very large table, "The Penn World Table," which up to now has been presented in five successive versions. The second data set consists of finely detailed and integrated bench mark estimates of price parities and quantities for 35 summary categories of goods and services for about 60 countries for the years 1970, 1975, 1980, and 1985. This project will update the "Penn World Table", by expanding its county coverage, and filling in data gaps. In addition, it will develop estimates of new variables for each country. The new variables are of two types: price parities and outputs of disaggregated components of gross domestic product and new estimates of purchasing power parities for the production of outputs by industry. In addition, the bench mark studies of the United Nations International Comparison Program will be reworked on a data archive of a common vintage and based on a common methodology. These updated and expanded data sets are important because they provide the basic information needed for research aimed at better understanding international trade and economic development issues.

该项目是开发一个 世界范围的国民核算体系。 目前的制度， 由联合国赞助的是主要来源， 标准化的经验信息的价格和数量 几乎所有独立的政治分区的经济 of the world. 这种会计制度对大多数人来说是无价的。 对个别经济体的分析，跨时期的， 一个给定的时间点，但本身并不提供一个基础， 比较各郡。 本项目主要产品 是两个数据集， 缺陷 第一个是一张非常大的桌子， 世界表”，到目前为止，已提出了五个 连续的版本。 第二个数据集由精细的 价格平价的详细和综合基准估计 35个货物和服务总类的数量和数量 在1970年，1975年，1980年和1985年，大约60个国家。 该项目将更新“宾夕法尼亚世界表”，通过扩大其 覆盖全国，填补数据空白。此外还将 为每个国家制定新变量的估计数。 新 变量有两种类型：价格平价和产出 国内生产总值和新的 生产的购买力平价估计数 按行业划分的产量。 此外， 联合国国际比较方案将重新制定 在一个共同的年份的数据档案，并基于一个共同的 方法论 这些更新和扩大的数据集很重要 因为它们提供了研究所需的基本信息 旨在更好地了解国际贸易和经济 发展问题。
