Since the IOIC industries used are often too broadly defined and include non-culture industries a major step in building the CSA is to disaggregate the IOIC based industries into their underlying six-digit NAICS industries.

The disaggregation or “splitting” process makes use of survey and administrative data collected at the detailed industry level. This data is first processed to be consistent with the definitions and accounting rules used to create the SUT.

Revenue information from different sources is used to derive “split factors” to split IOIC industries into relevant culture industries. A split factor, see equation below, is the share of a specific industries output relative to the total of all industries in the group.

The table below is an example of how the split factors would be derived for the culture industry related to the Performing arts, spectator sport and related industries, and heritage institutions in the CSA. The first step would be to derive a value of output for all the culture industries within the IOIC - Performing arts, spectator sport and related industries using detailed survey or administrative data.

The second step would be to derive a split factor for each industry which represents the output of the industry as a share of the total output of all the industries in BS71A000 - Performing arts, spectator sport and related industries, and heritage institutions.

The next step would be to then apply these split factors to the output, GDP and jobs of the industry BS71A000 - Performing arts, spectator sport and related industries, and heritage institutions.
