Díaz, R. Doménech, J. Ferri, E. Pérez and L. Puch. D-2007-04. December, 2007).

The series run from the first quarter of 1980 to the third quarter of 2023 and their frequency is quarterly; in general, they are seasonally and calendar-adjusted series. Estimates at constant prices refer to 2015. The source of the data is, whenever possible, official statistics
