SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

October 1998

National Data
A. Selected NIPA Tables
The tables in this section include the most recent estimates of gross domestic product and its components;
these estimates were released on September 24,1998 and include the "final" estimates for the second quarter of
1998.
The selected set of NIPA tables shown in this section presents quarterly estimates, which are updated monthly.
In most tables, the annual estimates are also shown. Most of the "annual only" NIPA tables were presented in
the August 1998 SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS; table 8.26 is presented in the September 1998 SURVEY; and the
remaining "annual only" tables—tables 3.15-3.20 and 9.1-9.6—are presented in this issue.
The news release on gross domestic product (GDP) is available at the time of release, and the "Selected
NIPA Tables" are available later that day, on STAT-USA'S Economic Bulletin Board and Internet services; for
information, call STAT-USA on 202-482-1986. In addition, the GDP news release is available the afternoon of the
day of the release, and the "Selected NIPA Tables" a day or two later, on BEA'S Web site <www.bea.doc.gov>.
The "Selected NIPA Tables" are also available on printouts or diskettes from BEA. TO order NIPA subscription products using Visa or MasterCard, call the BEA Order Desk at 1-800-704-0415 (outside the United States,
202-606-9666).

NOTE.—Chained (1992) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 1992
current-dollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity
indexes uses weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive.
The residual line is the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines. Percent changes
from preceding period for selected items in this table are shown in table 8.1; contributions to the percent change
in real gross domestic product are shown in table 8.2.
Chain-type quantity indexes for the series in this table appear in table 7.1.

NOTE.—Chained (1992) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 1992
current-dollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity
indexes uses weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive.
The residual line is the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.
