Note: ①The chain volume measures of Gross Domestic Product(GDP) and its components have been re-referenced from 2006 to 2007. Re-referencing
affects the levels, but not the rates of change, of the chain volume measures.   A discrepancy may exist between the volume estimate of an
aggregate and the sum of its components.  Non-additivity is a technical feature of the chain volume measures.
