Abstract

During recent research on regional public finance issues we developed a version of the perpetual inventory technique for constructing capital stocks, and in conjunction with unpublished and published Australian Bureau of Statistics data, produced capital stock estimates for the National, State and Local components of the General Government Sector by State, broken down into various purposes and sub-purposes (e.g. health and education) for the period 1962 to 1999. This paper outlines the nature of the data set, discusses availability of the data to researchers and emphasises some of the potential applications. JEL classification: H70.
