The fourth edition of Economic indicators is a fundamentally
revised, updated and expanded version of the successful third
edition. It covers the most recent comprehensive revisions of the
national accounts, the consumer price index, the producer price
index, the various labour market surveys and government finance
statistics. Each chapter contains more information than before,
for example, on business cycles, money, credit and interest
rates, budget deficits, foreign debt, units of measurement and
various technical aspects, such as the previous-year comparison
error, data revisions and the calculation of growth rates.
A new section examines the impact of economic indicators on
the financial markets and a number of political and politico-
economic indicators have been added. New boxes include one
on important international economic indicators, another on
the indicators that are examined by
tne
South African Reserve
Banks Monetary Policy Committee when deciding on interest
rates, another on the Baltic Dry Index and even one to prove that
the experts can also sometimes get it wrong! All the data that are
used to illustrate and explain the various indicators have been
updated and. as always, a wealth of data on the South African
economy are provided.
No student of economics can afford to be without a copy of the
latest edition, it is also an indispensable reference source for a
variety of professionals, including economists, financial analysts,
accountants, lawyers, industrial relations specialists, brokers,
dealers, political scientists and development specialists. Last,
but by no means least it is informative, useful and accessible to
interested lay people.
