It put forward a serial of requirements on improving regional GDP account, and it also required that the province (districts and cities) to gradually establish the system of one-level-below account for regional GDP account, and the province (districts and cities with favorable condition) shall lead in the enforcement. The first economic census has provided a good momentum to the GDP one-level-below account. According to the essence of the document of the State Council, our province has started to research in the mechanism of unified GDP account.

一、浙江省GDP统一核算的背景
The Background of Unified GDP Account in Zhejiang Province
自第一次经济普查以来，浙江省实行GDP统一核算，保持了全省与各市、 县（市、区）GDP总量、速度的基本衔接。但在统一核算之前，我省按照 全国统一的模式，采取 “分级核算、分级负责”的方式核算GDP。结果 是各县汇总的GDP总量和速度高于市级核算数据，各市汇总的GDP总量和 速度高于省级核算数据，各级汇总的GDP数据的差距在逐步扩大。统一核 算之前，2004年全省GDP快报数与各市汇总快报数据总量差距达700亿元， 约占GDP的6%左右。
Ever since the first economic census, Zhejiang Province has adopted unified GDP Account, realizing the basic consistence in GDP volume and speed of the whole province and the cities and counties. Yet, before the unified account, our province applied the national unified mode and the mode of “level-by-level account and level-by-level responsibility” to GDP account. It turned out that the GDP volume and speed summarized by the counties are higher than that of the cities, and the data by the cities higher than that of the province, with a big gap among the GDP data of various levels. Before unified account, the gap between express GDP data of the whole province in 2004 and that of the various cities is 70 billion RMB, taking up around 6% of GDP.
