[a] On February 1, 1985 the inti, worth 1000 soles, was introduced. It was replaced in 1992 by the nuevo sol, worth one million intis. Current-price GDP data are in billions of intis for 1982-1988 and in millions of nuevo soles thereafter.
[b] GDP data in current and constant prices are from INEI (the National Institute of Statistics), except for the 1994-1995 current-price data, which are from the Banco Central de Reserva (BCR).
[c] Private and public transfers are not disaggregated for 1978-84; the combined figure for those years is recorded under "public transfers."
