Economy & public finances

United Kingdom · Government revenue by type

Revenue of general government as % of GDP, split into five types: social contributions; taxes on production and imports (incl. VAT); taxes on income and wealth (incl. capital taxes); sales of goods and services; other revenue (property income, transfers received). Eurostat, government accounts (gov_10a_main) in the European Union; OECD national accounts (Table 12 over GDP) for the other OECD members. The five bands add up to total government revenue.· Central government, state and local government and social security funds, consolidated as in the national accounts (ESA 2010).· Built by Citoyen from the OECD national accounts: Table 12 (general government main aggregates, national currency) divided by nominal GDP from Table 1; the same items as Eurostat's government accounts, cross-checked on France within 0.3 pt. Sales = market output + payments for non-market output. A subsector the country does not report separately is counted inside the others: the United States publishes state and local government together, the United Kingdom has no separate social security funds (they sit in central government), Korea and the United Kingdom have no state level.· Licence : OECD terms and conditions · source: OECD, National Accounts (Tables 1 and 12)
