Objectives of India’s NTA study

  • 1. Construct estimates of public and private National

Transfer Accounts (NTA) for India as can be supported by available data

  • 2. Fully document sources of data and estimation

procedures

  • 3. Upload document sources of data and estimation

procedures

  • 4. Use NTA estimates to conduct research on

intergenerational equity, public policy, family support system, or other related issues

  • 5. Collaborate with other project members in the

development and refinement of methodologies

slide-82
SLIDE 82

What does NTA mean?

A measure of reallocations or shift of resources from

  • ne age group to another, or inter-generational

transfers at the national level of aggregation Reallocations occur because consumption and production differ at different ages of individuals (e.g. production exceeds consumption in working age groups, and consumption exceeds production in childhood and old age dependent age groups NTA documents the means by which those with lifecycle deficits (e.g. young and old) draw on the lifecycle surplus (e.g. generated during working ages)

slide-83
SLIDE 83

NTA Institutions

Individual is the fundamental analytic unit in NTA –all transactions are treated as flowing to and from individuals and are classified on the basis of age of individuals Public and private (e.g. families) institutions mediate the individual transactions Thus, all estimations in the NTA, such as, lifecycle deficit, asset reallocations, and transfers are distinguished by public and private sectors

slide-84
SLIDE 84

Construction of NTA Flow Account

Flow account measures all flows during the prescribed accounting period. E.g. lifecycle deficits and age allocations Thus, estimation of lifecycle deficit and age allocations are essential for construction of NTA Flow Account In what follows, we present the NTA methodology for estimation of lifecycle deficit; and apply the methodology for India to estimate the lifecycle deficit for the year 1999-00

slide-85
SLIDE 85

Lifecycle deficit (LCD)

A measure of total demand for age reallocations Difference between the value of goods and services consumed by members of an age group [C(a)], and the value of goods and services produced by members of an age group [Y(a)]: LCD = {C(a) – Y(a)} Deficit if LCD>0; Surplus if LCD<0 Age groups with deficit support their surplus consumption by generating age reallocation inflows; those with surplus generate age reallocation outflows

slide-86
SLIDE 86

Methodology for estimation of LCD

Estimation of LCD involves three steps

  • 1. Estimation of aggregate control variables (aggregate

income and consumption)

  • 2. Estimation of age allocation of aggregate control

variables

  • 3. Determine the lifecycle deficit/surplus by age groups

and overall age groups, as a basis for estimation of

  • f age allocations (= asset reallocations + transfers)
slide-87
SLIDE 87

Estimation of aggregate controls

Aggregate controls are drawn from National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA) – National Accounts Statistics in India- thus, NTA is consistent with the NIPA NTA requires rearrangement/reformat of NIPA variables, because the individual is the basic analytic entity in the NTA – thus, all aggregate controls have to be rearranged by individual entity

slide-88
SLIDE 88

Estimation of aggregate labour income

Aggregate labour income = compensation of employees + (2/3) of mixed income + net compensation of employees from the rest of world Source of data for India India’s National Income Statistics Thus, the definition and measurement of components

  • f aggregate labour income in NTA is the same as

being used for estimation of these components in India’s national income

slide-89
SLIDE 89

Estimation of aggregate control for consumption

Aggregate consumption = Public consumption + Private consumption (net of indirect taxes) Both public and private consumption are disaggregated by: (a) Education consumption (b) Health consumption (c) Other consumption Source of data for India India’s National Accounts Statistics

slide-90
SLIDE 90

Measurement of aggregate control for consumption

Public consumption = Government Final Consumption Expenditure (GFCE) Private consumption = Private Final Consumption Expenditure (PFCE) Private Education consumption = Education expenditure under PFCE Public education consumption = Education expenditure under GFCE Private health consumption = expenditure on medical care and health services under PFCE Public health consumption =expenditure on health under GFCE Private consumption other = expenditure on non-education and non- medical care and health services under PFCE Public consumption other = expenditure on non-education and non-health under GFCE

Data sources and rules for age allocation of aggregate controls

Age allocation for aggregate control for labour income is estimated by self-employment and wage employment. Age allocation of different components of aggregate consumption are estimated by using the sector-specific databases and household consumer expenditure and employment surveys by the National Sample Survey Organisation. All databases are official and available in the public domain

slide-93
SLIDE 93

Allocation rule for aggregate labour income

Allocated according to the age profiles of self- employed and wage and salary employed persons in the National Sample Survey of Employment and Unemployment Survey of India, 1999-00. Survey data comprised non-reported values for self and non-self employed household persons. These non-reported values were replaced by the average value of employed persons’ income by controlling for age and residence.

Summary of main results of LCD estimations

First, the LCD is evident for all age groups except for working population in the age group of 30-49 years and 50-64 years. Second, the highest LCD is evident for young age dependents (age group 0-19 years) rather than for old age dependents (age group 65+ years). In fact, the LCD in age group 0-19 years is about 8 times higher than for the old age group (65+ years).
