                The residence-based and the consolidated accounting frameworks should
            be  considered  complementary  rather  than  mutually  exclusive.  The
            consolidated  accounting  framework,  while  newer  and  more  suited  to
            addressing  some  of  the  measurement  issues  discussed  here,  is  not
            unconditionally  superior  to  the  residence  based  framework  along  all
            dimensions.  Instead,  its  real  benefit  would  be  in  providing  a  useful
            supplementary perspective, whose relevance would naturally depend on the
            question that is under investigation.
