Build a Chain-Linked GDP Growth Contribution Explorer

Explain real GDP growth using published contribution measures. Prevent analysts from treating chained-dollar component levels as an additive accounting identity.

gdpHosted by Vera

What you are building

Published contributions of 1.2, 0.5, and 0.4 percentage points explain 2.1 points of growth. Build a contribution chart that reconciles the published figures and flags incompatible release dates. Block a chart that mixes vintages. Adding chained-dollar component levels is not a substitute for using compatible contribution measures.

Rules

The fixture checks arithmetic reconciliation only, not the complete chain-index calculation. No fabricated records, source citations, professional endorsements, or expert-adjudication claims. No future-data leakage into dated decisions, model fitting, or historical valuation inputs. No unauthorized payments, account restrictions, regulatory filings, or production changes. No automated appraisal certification, tax-compliance determination, or unsupported fraud accusation. No concealed uncertainty or silently invented inputs required for a numerical conclusion.

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

100-point weighted review with safety gates. Visible starter cases do not establish full application correctness.

Submission format

A release-linked decomposition dataset. A chart export that identifies contribution units and rounding differences. Runnable local application, setup commands, and a dependency lockfile. Versioned input data, data dictionary, acquisition instructions, and rights notes. Calculation traces, source references, assumption records, and exported review artifacts. A deterministic baseline and tests for normal, incomplete, contradictory, and failure-recovery cases. A recorded complete workflow with a reproducible manifest and explicit limitations.

Datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Learning goals

  • Align release versions and component definitions.

  • Build contribution waterfalls from published contribution tables.

  • Calculate and disclose rounding residuals.

  • Export an explanatory chart with rejected invalid aggregations.

Resources

Dataset notes

2 attached datasets, including two visible synthetic starter cases. The fixture ZIP supplies synthetic exercise inputs. It does not supply independently verified real-world records.
