National Accounts Division
Function: National Accounts Division compiles the national accounts of Guyana's economy which is subdivided into fifteen sub-sectors. Two of the most well-known variables produced by these accounts, and perhaps the two most requested by the public, are Gross Domestic Product and per capita income.

Data collection: Data is collected on the output of the real and services sector of the economy. Examples of the data collected are: production of crops (such as rice, sugar, and other non-traditional crops), extraction of minerals (such as bauxite and gold), harvesting of seafood, and several manufactured items (varying from industrial items such as paint, to consumer items such as beverages).
