ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
GSP PER CAPITA Different rates of population growth explain some of the differences between states in GSP growth and for analytical purposes it is useful to look at movements in GSP per capita. For 2015-16, the Northern Territory (NT) recorded the highest GSP per capita growth (2.3%) followed by New South Wales (NSW) and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) (both 2.0%). Queensland (QLD) and Tasmania (TAS) recorded the weakest GSP per capita growth in 2015-16 at 0.7%. GSP per capita has grown in both New South Wales (NSW) and Western Australia (WA) for seven consecutive years. REAL GROSS STATE INCOME While GSP measures domestic production, the real purchasing power of income generated by that production is affected by changes in the prices of international and interstate imports and exports. Real gross state income (RGSI) adjusts GSP for these changes in a state's Terms of trade (for details on the calculation method see the Explanatory Notes, paragraphs 26 - 28). The following graph shows annual percentage changes in RGSI per capita in 2015-16. The Australian Capital Territory (2.0%), New South Wales (1.4%), Victoria (0.1%) and Tasmania (0.1%) all reported positive RGSI per capita in 2015-16. The highest fall in RGSI per capita was reported by Western Australia (-6.4%) while Queensland (-1.1%), the Northern Territory (-0.7%) and South Australia (-0.6%) were also negative. INDUSTRY GROSS VALUE ADDED (GVA) Growth in New South Wales and Victoria was driven by Construction (up 10.8% in NSW and 9.9% in VIC) and Finance and insurance services (up 4.8% in NSW and 5.5% in VIC). Offsetting the growth in New South Wales and Victoria was Manufacturing (-3.1% in NSW and -2.7% in Victoria) and Agriculture, forestry and fishing (-6.9% in NSW and -8.4% in Victoria). Growth in ACT was driven by Public administration and safety (up 5.6%). The low growth in Tasmania was driven by falls in Electricity, gas, water and waste services (-8.2%) and Agriculture, forestry and fishing (-4.0%) while Retail trade (5.6%) and Construction (5.0%) contributed to growth.
At a national level, the main industries contributing to the 2015-16 GVA growth of 2.8% were Mining (6.2%), Financial and insurance services (4.6%), Public administration and safety (6.5%) and Health care and social assistance (3.9%). Agriculture, forestry and fishing (-5.0%), Manufacturing (-2.7%) and Administrative and support services (-1.3%) were the only industries detracting from growth. From a state perspective, there are differing industry impacts in GVA growth. In 2015-16, the largest contributor(s) to results in each state were:
STATE FINAL DEMAND (SFD) State Final Demand is a measure of domestic demand in an economy. It measures the total volume of goods sold for consumption or investments within that state, but excludes export sales. Volume SFD in 2015-16 recorded growth for five out of eight states. The strongest growth was in New South Wales (3.9%), followed by Victoria (3.8%), the Australian Capital Territory (2.9%) and Tasmania (2.2%). Growth for NSW, VIC and TAS was driven by strong Household final consumption expenditure while growth for the ACT was driven by strong Government final consumption expenditure. The Northern Territory (-12.5%), Western Australia (-4.0%) and Queensland (-1.3%) recorded negative SFD growth. The falls in all three states were driven by a fall in Private gross fixed capital formation due, in part, to a wind down of construction activity related to the mining industry. For 2015-16, South Australia had moderate growth in SFD (1.1%) driven by an increase in Household final consumption expenditure. NSW and VIC contributed the most to Australia's Domestic final demand growth with NSW adding 1.2 percentage points and VIC adding 0.9 percentage points.
GOVERNMENT FINAL CONSUMPTION EXPENDITURE (GFCE) GFCE in volume terms rose for all states in 2015-16. QLD recorded the strongest growth with an increase of 4.9% while NSW (4.7%) and TAS (3.9%) also experienced strong growth. HOUSEHOLD FINAL CONSUMPTION EXPENDITURE (HFCE) HFCE in volume terms rose in all states in 2015-16. The strongest growth was in NT (5.2%), followed by ACT (3.5%). Both NSW and VIC recorded growth of 3.2%. PRIVATE GROSS FIXED CAPITAL FORMATION Private gross fixed capital formation in volume terms rose in three states in 2015-16. Victoria had the strongest growth (5.2%) due to strength in dwelling construction. NSW and ACT also showed positive growth with 4.5% and 4.1% respectively. The largest negative growth was recorded in NT (-32.6%) and WA (-14.1%). PUBLIC GROSS FIXED CAPITAL FORMATION NSW, VIC and SA all recorded rises in Public gross fixed capital formation with 8.4%, 10.1%, and 3.0% respectively. TOTAL FACTOR INCOME (TFI) Total factor incomes grew in seven of the eight states with NSW (4.8%) and ACT (4.1%) recording the strongest growth. WA (-4.6%) recorded a fall in Total factor income. Australia's Compensation of employees (COE) rose by 3.1% with Victoria (5.9%) and New South Wales (4.8%) recording the strongest growth. Western Australia was the only state to record negative growth (-2.5%). Gross operating surplus (GOS) plus gross mixed income (GMI) rose 1.6% for Australia. All states except WA and NT experienced growth in GOS plus GMI with the strongest growth in NSW (5.0%), ACT (5.0%) and QLD (4.4%). WA and NT experienced negative growth with falls of 6.3% and 0.8% respectively. GROSS HOUSEHOLD DISPOSABLE INCOME PER CAPITA While GSP per capita measures the level of economic production, some of the income generated from production may be transferred to other states or overseas (and conversely income may be received from other states or overseas), such as through out-of-state ownership of businesses or government transfers. A measure that takes these flows into account is gross household disposable income per capita. The highest Gross household disposable income per capita in 2015-16 was in ACT and the lowest was in TAS. Differences between the states reflect differences in the impact of a range of factors including the average level of compensation of employees received per employee, the proportion of the population in employment, the age distribution of the population and differences in the level of dwelling rent (including that imputed to owner occupiers). For example, a significant reason for the high level of gross household disposable income per capita in the ACT compared with other states is that the labour force participation rate is higher than many other states of Australia. More detail on household income by state can be found in the Household Income Account and Per Capita tables. Document Selection These documents will be presented in a new window.
