CCTV reporter spoke to economists about the reasons for the adjustment, and what it means for China's future growth track. Just last week, China once again revised its GDP calculation method. Now, research and development expenditure that brings economic benefit to companies will no longer be calculated as intermediate consumption, but as fixed capital formation. With the new method, the size of China’s economy last year reached 130 billion US dollars - larger than previously estimated. Growth for 2015 was amended marginally, but basically remained at 6.9 percent, still the slowest pace in a quarter of a century. The country's statistics agency claims that the new method "better reflects the contribution of innovation to economic growth." It also revised the GDP figures going back to 1952, changing the growth statistics for 22 out of the 63 years in question. The latest changes come after China already switched to quarter-on-quarter calculations last September, rather than using cumulative data, in a bid to adhere more closely to "international" standards. The increases came amid investor skepticism about the accuracy of the country's official economic data. So what does the new calculation mean for China's future growth track and monetary policy decisions? China aims to boost its R&D spending as a share of GDP to 2.5 percent by 2020. And the country is now also studying new ways to assess the economic contribution from industries seen as part of the "new economy", such as biotech firms and online retailers. No matter the calculation method, important will be that China further improves its data accuracy to reflect the fast-changing structure of its economy. 本栏目更多同类内容 扫码关注和谐英语微信公众号,第一时间获取最新学习资料 或公众号搜索myhxen 上一篇 前切尔西前锋登巴巴遭受恐怖断腿 下一篇 欧盟部长关注土耳其的危机与恐怖主义 相关文章 中国经济保持稳定增长美国大选早期投票愈加关键美国大选的不确定性影响经济寻找方法促进经济增长经济前景不佳 智能手表流行G20关注世界经济和金融中国刺激全球经济新增长特朗普概述了“美国第一”的经济政策中国年轻人改变对爱情和婚姻的态度世界银行修正全球经济增长预期
