1993 SNA Update Information - AEG recommendations for issue:
Valuation of water |
| Issue description | | Issue description in [English] | [French] | [Russian] | [Spanish] | | When water is no longer free, how should the charge for it be treated? Although a large share of
the charges represents distribution costs, is there an element that should be treated as giving rise
to rent in a similar way to land or mineral resources? How should the use of water as a sink for
waste be treated? |
