GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT: FIRST QUARTER 2010 (SECOND ESTIMATE)
CORPORATE PROFITS: FIRST QUARTER 2010 (PRELIMINARY)
Real gross domestic product -- the output of goods and services produced by labor and property
located in the United States -- increased at an annual rate of 3.0 percent in the first quarter of 2010, (that
is, from the fourth quarter to the first quarter), according to the "second" estimate released by the Bureau
of Economic Analysis. In the fourth quarter, real GDP had increased 5.6 percent.
The GDP estimates released today are based on more complete source data than were available for
the "advance" estimate issued last month. In the advance estimate, the increase in real GDP was 3.2
percent (see "Revisions" on page 3).
The increase in real GDP in the first quarter primarily reflected positive contributions from
personal consumption expenditures (PCE), private inventory investment, exports, and nonresidential
fixed investment that were partly offset by negative contributions from state and local government
spending and residential fixed investment. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP,
increased.
The deceleration in real GDP in the first quarter primarily reflected decelerations in private
inventory investment and in exports, a downturn in residential fixed investment, a larger decrease in
state and local government spending, and a deceleration in nonresidential fixed investment that were
partly offset by an acceleration in PCE and a deceleration in imports.
Motor vehicle output added 0.49 percentage point to the first-quarter change in real GDP after
adding 0.45 percentage point to the fourth-quarter change. Final sales of computers added 0.18
percentage point to the first-quarter change in real GDP after adding 0.01 percentage point to the fourthquarter change.
NOTE.--Quarterly estimates are expressed at seasonally adjusted annual rates, unless otherwise
specified. Quarter-to-quarter dollar changes are differences between these published estimates. Percent
changes are calculated from unrounded data and are annualized. “Real” estimates are in chained (2005)
dollars. Price indexes are chain-type measures.

related to this release.

The price index for gross domestic purchases, which measures prices paid by U.S. residents,
increased 1.7 percent in the first quarter, the same increase as in the advance estimate; this index
increased 2.0 percent in the fourth quarter. Excluding food and energy prices, the price index for gross
domestic purchases increased 1.1 percent in the first quarter, compared with an increase of 1.5 percent in
the fourth. The federal pay raise for civilian and military personnel added 0.2 percentage point to the
first-quarter increase in the gross domestic purchases price index.
Real personal consumption expenditures increased 3.5 percent in the first quarter, compared with
an increase of 1.6 percent in the fourth. Real nonresidential fixed investment increased 3.1 percent,
compared with an increase of 5.3 percent. Nonresidential structures decreased 15.3 percent, compared
with a decrease of 18.0 percent. Equipment and software increased 12.7 percent, compared with an
increase of 19.0 percent. Real residential fixed investment decreased 10.7 percent, in contrast to an
increase of 3.8 percent.
Real exports of goods and services increased 7.2 percent in the first quarter, compared with an
increase of 22.8 percent in the fourth. Real imports of goods and services increased 10.4 percent,
compared with an increase of 15.8 percent.
Real federal government consumption expenditures and gross investment increased 1.2 percent in
the first quarter, compared with no change in the fourth. National defense increased 1.1 percent, in
contrast to a decrease of 3.6 percent. Nondefense increased 1.5 percent, compared with an increase of
8.3 percent. Real state and local government consumption expenditures and gross investment decreased
3.9 percent, compared with a decrease of 2.2 percent.
The change in real private inventories added 1.65 percentage points to the first-quarter change in
real GDP, after adding 3.79 percentage points to the fourth-quarter change. Private businesses increased
inventories $33.9 billion in the first quarter, following decreases of $19.7 billion in the fourth quarter
and $139.2 billion in the third.
Real final sales of domestic product -- GDP less change in private inventories -- increased 1.4
percent in the first quarter, compared with an increase of 1.7 percent in the fourth.

Gross domestic purchases
Real gross domestic purchases -- purchases by U.S. residents of goods and services wherever
produced -- increased 3.6 percent in the first quarter, compared with an increase of 5.2 percent in the
fourth.

Gross national product
Real gross national product -- the goods and services produced by the labor and property supplied
by U.S. residents -- increased 3.9 percent in the first quarter, compared with an increase of 5.0 percent in
the fourth. GNP includes, and GDP excludes, net receipts of income from the rest of the world, which
increased $27.7 billion in the first quarter after decreasing $14.5 billion in the fourth; in the first quarter,
receipts increased $22.7 billion, and payments decreased 5.0 billion.

Current-dollar GDP
Current-dollar GDP -- the market value of the nation's output of goods and services -- increased
4.1 percent, or $147.6 billion, in the first quarter to a level of $14,601.4 billion. In the fourth quarter,
current-dollar GDP increased 6.1 percent, or $211.7 billion.

Revisions
The “second” estimate of the first-quarter increase in real GDP is 0.2 percentage point, or $6.5
billion, lower than the advance estimate issued last month, primarily reflecting an upward revision to
imports and a downward revision to personal consumption expenditures that were partly offset by an
upward revision to exports.

Corporate Profits
Profits from current production (corporate profits with inventory valuation and capital
consumption adjustments) increased $81.4 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of
$108.7 billion in the fourth quarter. Current-production cash flow (net cash flow with inventory
valuation adjustment) -- the internal funds available to corporations for investment -- increased $30.8
billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of $69.1 billion in the fourth.
Taxes on corporate income increased $57.7 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase
of $40.9 billion in the fourth quarter. Profits after tax with inventory valuation and capital consumption
adjustments increased $23.7 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of $67.8 billion in the
fourth. Dividends decreased $26.2 billion, in contrast to an increase of $29.1 billion; current-production
undistributed profits increased $49.9 billion, compared with an increase of $38.7 billion.

Domestic profits of financial corporations increased $7.4 billion in the first quarter, compared
with an increase of $65.0 billion in the fourth quarter. Domestic profits of nonfinancial corporations
increased $44.5 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of $59.8 billion in the fourth. In
the first quarter, real gross value added of nonfinancial corporations increased, and profits per unit of
real value added increased. The increase in unit profits reflected decreases in both the unit labor and
nonlabor costs corporations incurred that more than offset a decrease in unit prices.
The rest-of-the-world component of profits increased $29.5 billion in the first quarter, in contrast
to a decrease of $16.1 billion in the fourth quarter. This measure is calculated as (1) receipts by U.S.
residents of earnings from their foreign affiliates plus dividends received by U.S. residents from
unaffiliated foreign corporations minus (2) payments by U.S. affiliates of earnings to their foreign
parents plus dividends paid by U.S. corporations to unaffiliated foreign residents. The first-quarter
increase was accounted for by an increase in receipts and a slight decrease in payments.
Profits before tax increased $180.9 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of
$137.0 billion in the fourth quarter. The before-tax measure of profits does not reflect, as does profits
from current production, the capital consumption and inventory valuation adjustments. These
adjustments convert depreciation of fixed assets and inventory withdrawals reported on a tax-return,
historical-cost basis to the current-cost measures used in the national income and product accounts. The
capital consumption adjustment decreased $107.2 billion in the first quarter (from -$118.8 billion to
-$226.0 billion), in contrast to an increase of $0.1 billion in the fourth. The inventory valuation
adjustment increased $7.7 billion (from -$45.6 billion to -$37.9 billion), in contrast to a decrease of
$28.5 billion.

NOTE. Users are cautioned that particularly for components that exhibit rapid change in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar estimates should not be used to measure the component’s
relative importance or its contribution to the growth rate of more aggregate series. For accurate estimates of the contributions to percent changes in real gross domestic product, use table 2.

1. Food excludes personal consumption expenditures for purchased meals and beverages, which are classified in food services.
2. This index is a supplemental measure that is based on household expenditures for which there are observable price measures. It excludes most implicit prices (for example, financial

r Revised. Revisions include changes to series affected by the incorporation of revised wage and salary estimates for the fourth quarter of 2009.
1. The current-dollar gross value added is deflated using the gross value added chain-type price index for nonfinancial industries from the GDP-by-industry accounts. For periods when
this price index is not available, the chain-type price index for GDP goods and structures is used.
2. Chained-dollar consumption of fixed capital of nonfinancial corporate business is calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2005 current-dollar value of the
corresponding series, divided by 100.
3. Chained-dollar net value added of nonfinancial corporate business is the difference between the gross value added and the consumption of fixed capital.
4. The deflator for gross value added of nonfinancial corporate business divided by 100.

1. For some components of final sales of computers, includes computer parts.
2. Farm output less intermediate goods and services purchased.
3. Consists of GDP less gross value added of farm, of households and institutions, and of general government.
4. Food excludes personal consumption expenditures for purchased meals and beverages, which are classified in food services.
5. This index is a supplemental measure that is based on household expenditures for which there are observable price measures. It excludes most implicit prices (for example, financial services furnished without
payment) and the final consumption expenditures of nonprofit institutions serving households.

Explanatory Note: NIPA Measures of Quantities and Prices
Current-dollar GDP is a measure of the market value of goods, services, and structures produced
in the economy in a particular period. Changes in current-dollar GDP can be decomposed into quantity
and price components. Quantities, or “real” measures, and prices are expressed as index numbers with the
reference year -- at present, the year 2005 -- equal to 100.
Annual changes in quantities and prices are calculated using a Fisher formula that incorporates
weights from two adjacent years. (Quarterly changes in quantities and prices are calculated using a Fisher
formula that incorporates weights from two adjacent quarters; quarterly indexes are adjusted for
consistency to the annual indexes before percent changes are calculated.) For example, the 2007-08
annual percent change in real GDP uses prices for 2007 and 2008 as weights, and the 2007-08 annual
percent change in GDP prices uses quantities for 2007 and 2008 as weights. These annual changes are
“chained” (multiplied) together to form time series of quantity and price indexes. Percent changes in
Fisher indexes are not affected by the choice of reference year. (BEA also publishes a measure of the
price level known as the implicit price deflator (IPD), which is calculated as the ratio of the current-dollar
value to the corresponding chained-dollar value, multiplied by 100. The values of the IPD are very close
to the values of the corresponding "chain-type" price index.)
Index numbers of quantity and price indexes for GDP and its major components are presented in
this release in tables 5 and 6. Percent changes from the preceding period are presented in tables 1, 4, 7, 8,
and appendix table A. Contributions by major components to the percent change in real GDP are
presented in table 2.
Measures of real GDP and its major components are also presented in dollar-denominated form,
designated "chained (2005) dollar estimates." For most series, these estimates, which are presented in
table 3, are computed by multiplying the current-dollar value in 2005 by a corresponding quantity index
number and then dividing by 100. For example, if a current-dollar GDP component equaled $100 in 2005
and if real output for this component increased 10 percent in 2006, then the chained (2005) dollar value of
this component in 2006 would be $110 (= $100 x 110 / 100). Percent changes calculated from
chained-dollar estimates and from chain-type quantity indexes are the same; any differences will be small
and due to rounding.
Chained-dollar values for the detailed GDP components will not necessarily sum to the chained-dollar
estimate of GDP (or to any intermediate aggregate). This is because the relative prices used as weights
for any period other than the reference year differ from those of the reference year. A measure of the
extent of such differences is provided by a “residual” line, which indicates the difference between GDP
(or other major aggregate) and the sum of the most detailed components in the table. For periods close to
the reference year, when there usually has not been much change in the relative prices that are used as
weights, the residuals tend to be small, and the chained-dollar estimates can be used to approximate the
contributions to growth and to aggregate the detailed estimates. For periods further from the reference
year, the residuals tend to be larger, and the chained-dollar estimates are less useful for analyses of
contributions to growth. Thus, the contributions to percent change shown in table 2 provide a better
measure of the composition of GDP growth. In particular, for components for which relative prices are
changing rapidly, calculation of contributions using chained-dollar estimates may be misleading even just
a few years from the reference year.
