Abstract

This Paper is focused on the methodology for water resource valuations in conformity with the System of National Accounts (SNA 2008) principles. We offer a residual estimating technique based on resource rent capitalization and apply it to generate experimental estimates for the Russian surface and ground water resources for the year 2013– on the statistical macro-level of analysis. We report the findings of water rent estimates on the capitalized and un-capitalized basis, as well as unit valuations for water abstractions – as differentiated by the major water-using industries accounting for more than 60% of the water abstraction in the country. The technique provides a differentiated treatment for what we call “mono-industries” and “mixed-use industries” and urges the importance of not neglecting the contributions from the latter in valuing water resources for SNA purposes.
