Source discrepancies
What the warehouse found when it checked this series: the same figure from two agencies, splice overlaps, published rates against ones recalculated from the index, and outliers.
- Disagrees with itself2014 Q1
Two figures from this source that should agree differ by 562.7 (−449.8 against −1,013).
Consistency: −449.82 and −1,012.527, difference 562.707.
Q BOP: Current+Capital Account (net) - Financial Account (net) + Errors and Omissions is not ~0
BPM6 overall identity (Current+Capital Account net - Financial Account net + Errors and Omissions ~= 0) for 2014-Q1 only: residual of 562.7 against a base of ~1,012. Every other quarter tested (2012 on, where all three sheets overlap) closes to within tolerance. Not traced to a specific line; flagged as a one-off, most likely a compilation gap in this table's earliest quarters (table2.10's financial-account sheet only starts in 2012 and this is one of its first few years).
