Definition
Satellite Accounts. Supplemental accounts that expand the analytical capacity of the NIPAs and the I-O accounts by focusing on a particular aspect of economic activity.
Satellite accounts are designed to provide more detailed information within a framework that is conceptually and statistically consistent with BEA’s principal economic accounts.
Examples include the travel and tourism satellite accounts and the transportation satellite accounts.[1]
