ACCOMMODATION, CAFES AND RESTAURANTS

Definition and scope

The Accommodation, cafes and restaurants industry includes all units mainly engaged in providing hospitality services in the form of accommodation, meals and drinks.

ANZSIC Division G, Accommodation, cafes and restaurants, consists of one sub-division:

• Accommodation, cafes and restaurants (sub-division 57).

Summary of GSP(P) sources and methods

The methodology for Accommodation, cafes and restaurants uses an output indicator approach to compile state by industry GVA estimates. Output volumes are derived using quantity revaluation for the state output of Accommodation and price deflation for Cafes and restaurants. The output volumes then form the basis upon which volume measures of value added are derived at the division level.

For accommodation, quantity data (guest nights) and turnover data for hotels, motels, serviced apartments, caravan parks and holiday flats are sourced from the ABS Tourist Accommodation, Australia (cat. no. 8635.0).

Cafes and restaurants current price estimates are sourced from the ABS publication Retail Trade, Australia by state. Price deflators are sourced from the ABS CPI by capital city.

The state output indicators are used to derive volume measures of GVA for Accommodation, cafes and restaurants. The state volume GVAs are benchmarked to the annual national industry volume GVA.
