Abstract:
This paper provides a brief technical survey of the historical national accounts of Iran. Gaining access to longer-term time series in compliance with concepts, classifications and standards comparable to the present one help fulfill quantitative studies in the area of business cycles. Despite the shortage of reliable, standardized and classified information, the methodology applied in this paper could present data for a 70 year period, including the existing 48 years time series which is available now. The historic endeavors of the pioneer researchers in the field of the system of national accounts, despite certain ambiguity and shortcomings, have been gateway in the context of historical data, compilation.
