(a) For all time periods, estimates for sugar, sugar preparations and honey are included in Other non-rural.
(b) The estimates for goods and services are not necessarily consistent with the corresponding quarterly estimates, shown in tables 2.1 obtained from Balance of Payments and International Investment Position, Australia, (cat. no. 5302.0) due to data revisions to the original monthly data not feeding into the quarterly original series until the next quarterly release of Balance of Payments and International Investment Position, Australia, (cat. no. 5302.0).
(c) In addition to the differences outlined in footnote (b), the monthly seasonally adjusted estimates for goods and services are not necessarily consistent with the corresponding quarterly seasonally adjusted estimates, shown in table 2.1 obtained from Balance of Payments and International Investment Position, Australia, (cat. no. 5302.0), because of the independent seasonal adjustment of the monthly and quarterly data.
