Can I download GDP deflators that Implan uses for indexing average wages or can I derive the deflators using BEA GDP tables? In the latter case, which GDP tables does Implan use to construct their deflators?

  yes and yes. We use the GDP deflaters that the BEA publishes. This is the link to our downloadable table: http://implan.com/V4/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_download&gid=159&Itemid=7 Last quarter of real data in this document is 2nd quarter 2009. I suspect there is more current data for 2009 and 2010.
