The adding-up problem in the computation of aggregate constant price GDP / by René Durand.: CS15-602/6E-PDF
"The thrust of this note bears essentially on the adding-up problem in the current method of computation of aggregate constant price GDP. It does not suggest the adoption of new deflation techniques to solve the dilemma outlined below, but only addresses the more limited question of which of the Canadian or the U.S. methodologies appear to be the more consistent in a restricted framework. It concludes that the procedure adopted in the U.S. is more "consistent" in that, unlike the Canadian procedure, it does not lead to double valuation of the same GDP components in any given year"--p. 1.
