- A special case is that industry aggregation shares to the market sector are identical using either industry distribution of income or capital when the internal rate of return (IRR) is solved endogenously. In practice, a lower bound exogenous IRR of CPI+4% is frequently imposed and thus market sector capital services may differ using a pure capital aggregator.

Capital services index
19.120 Capital services index for each industry is estimated (for both corporate and unincorporated entities) by weighting together the real growth in the productive capital stock of different assets, weighted together using the two-period average value share of each type of capital services. The indexes are compiled in the form of a Törnqvist index (i.e. the weighted geometric mean of the component growth rates). The quantity index of capital services in industry i is calculated as:
\(\large \ln \left( {\frac{{{K_{i,t}}}}{{{K_{i,t - 1}}}}} \right) = \sum\limits_j {{s_{K,i,j,t}}\ln \left( {\frac{{{K_{i,j,t}}}}{{{K_{i,j,t - 1}}}}} \right)}\) - - - - - - - (19.7)
and the two-period average value share of each type of capital services is given by:
\(\large {s_{K,i,j,t}} = \frac{{\left( {\frac{{{r_{i,j,t}}{K_{i,j,t}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_j {{r_{i,j,t}}{K_{i,j,t}}} }} + \frac{{{r_{i,j,t - 1}}{K_{i,j,t - 1}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_j {{r_{i,j,t - 1}}{K_{i,j,t - 1}}} }}} \right)}}{2}\)
where
\(\ln \left( {\frac{{{K_{i,t}}}}{{{K_{i,t - 1}}}}} \right)\) is the capital input growth rate for industry \(i\) from period \(t-1\) to period \(t\), and
\(\ln \left( {\frac{{{K_{i,j,t}}}}{{{K_{i,j,t - 1}}}}} \right)\) is the productive capital stock growth rate for capital asset \(j\) in industry \(i\), from period \(t-1\) to period \(t\).
19.121 The capital input growth rate for the market sector \(\ln \left( {\frac{{{K_{m,t}}}}{{{K_{m,t - 1}}}}} \right)\), is given by:
\(\large \ln \left( {\frac{{{K_{m,t}}}}{{{K_{m,t - 1}}}}} \right) = \sum\limits_i {{s_{K,i,t}}\ln \left( {\frac{{{K_{i,t}}}}{{{K_{i,t - 1}}}}} \right)}\) - - - - - - - (19.8)
and the two-period average value share of each type of capital services is given by:
\(\large {s_{K,mjt}} = \frac{{\left( {\frac{{GO{S_{i,t}} + GMI{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t}} + IBT{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_i {GO{S_{i,t}} + GMI{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t}} + IBT{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t}}} }} + \frac{{GO{S_{i,t - 1}} + GMI{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t - 1}} + IBT{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t - 1}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_i {GO{S_{i,t - 1}} + GMI{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t - 1}} + IBT{{\left( K \right)}_{i,t - 1}}} }}} \right)}}{2}\)
19.122 That is, the industry capital income shares are derived as the proportion of \(GOS + GMI\left( K \right) + IBT\left( K \right)\) in each industry to \(GOS + GMI\left( K \right) + IBT\left( K \right)\)for the market sector.⁹⁶
Labour input index
19.123 Labour input index for each industry is calculated as a Törnqvist volume index of hours worked of different types of workers:
\(\large \ln \left( {\frac{{{L_{i,t}}}}{{{L_{i,t - 1}}}}} \right) = \sum\limits_j {{s_{L,ijt}}\ln \left( {\frac{{{H_{i,j,t}}}}{{{H_{i,j,t - 1}}}}} \right)}\) - - - - - - - (19.9)
and the two-period average value share of each type of workers in the industry labour compensation is given by:
\(\large {s_{L,ijt}} = \frac{{\left( {\frac{{{W_{i,j,t}}{H_{i,j,t}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_j {{W_{i,j,t}}{H_{i,j,t}}} }} + \frac{{{W_{i,j,t - 1}}{H_{i,j,t - 1}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_j {{W_{i,j,t - 1}}{H_{i,j,t - 1}}} }}} \right)}}{2}\)
where
\(\ln \left( {\frac{{{L_{i,t}}}}{{{L_{i,t - 1}}}}} \right)\) is the labour input growth rate for industry \(i\), from period \(t-1\) to period \(t\);
\(\ln \left( {\frac{{{H_{i,j,t}}}}{{{H_{i,j,t - 1}}}}} \right)\) is the growth rate of hours worked for \(j\) the type of workers in industry \(i\), from period \(t-1\) to period \(t\); and
\({W_{i,j,t}}\) is the wage rate for \(j\) the type of workers in industry \(i\) at time \(t\).

\(\large \ln \left( {\frac{{{L_{m,t}}}}{{{L_{m,t - 1}}}}} \right) = \sum\limits_j {{s_{L,mjt}}\ln \left( {\frac{{{H_{m,j,t}}}}{{{H_{m,j,t - 1}}}}} \right)}\) - - - - - - - (19.10)
and the two-period average value share of each type of workers in the industry labour compensation is given by:
\(\large {s_{L,mjt}} = \frac{{\left( {\frac{{{W_{m,j,t}}{H_{m,j,t}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_j {{W_{m,j,t}}{H_{m,j,t}}} }} + \frac{{{W_{m,j,t - 1}}{H_{m,j,t - 1}}}}{{\sum\nolimits_j {{W_{m,j,t - 1}}{H_{m,j,t - 1}}} }}} \right)}}{2}\)
