GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT: FOURTH QUARTER AND ANNUAL 2010
(SECOND ESTIMATE)
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 2.8 percent in the fourth quarter of 2010,
(that is, from the third quarter to the fourth quarter), according to the "second" estimate released by the
Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the third quarter, real GDP increased 2.6 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 fourth quarter primarily reflected positive contributions from
personal consumption expenditures (PCE), exports, and nonresidential fixed investment that were partly
offset by negative contributions from private inventory investment and state and local government
spending. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, decreased.
The small fourth-quarter acceleration in real GDP primarily reflected a sharp downturn in
imports, an acceleration in PCE, an upturn in residential fixed investment, and an acceleration in exports
that were mostly offset by downturns in private inventory investment and in federal government
spending, a deceleration in nonresidential fixed investment, and a downturn in state and local
government spending.
Final sales of computers added 0.30 percentage point to the fourth-quarter change in real GDP
after adding 0.29 percentage point to the third-quarter change. Motor vehicle output subtracted 0.31
percentage point from the fourth-quarter change in real GDP after adding 0.49 percentage point to the
third-quarter 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.
This news release is available on BEA’s Web site along with the Technical Note and Highlights
related to this release.

domestic purchases increased 1.2 percent in the fourth quarter, compared with an increase of 0.4 percent
in the third.
Real personal consumption expenditures increased 4.1 percent in the fourth quarter, compared
with an increase of 2.4 percent in the third. Durable goods increased 21.0 percent, compared with an
increase of 7.6 percent. Nondurable goods increased 4.8 percent, compared with an increase of 2.5

decrease of 3.5 percent. Equipment and software increased 5.5 percent, compared with an increase of
15.4 percent. Real residential fixed investment increased 2.8 percent, in contrast to a decrease of 27.3
percent.
Real exports of goods and services increased 9.6 percent in the fourth quarter, compared with an
increase of 6.8 percent in the third. Real imports of goods and services decreased 12.4 percent, in

in the fourth quarter, in contrast to an increase of 8.8 percent in the third. National defense decreased
2.1 percent, in contrast to an increase of 8.5 percent. Nondefense increased 3.7 percent, compared with
an increase of 9.5 percent. Real state and local government consumption expenditures and gross
investment decreased 2.4 percent, in contrast to an increase of 0.7 percent.
The change in real private inventories subtracted 3.70 percentage points from the fourth-quarter
change in real GDP, after adding 1.61 percentage points to the third-quarter change. Private businesses
increased inventories $7.1 billion in the fourth quarter, following increases of $121.4 billion in the third
quarter and $68.8 billion in the second.
Real final sales of domestic product -- GDP less change in private inventories -- increased 6.7
percent in the fourth quarter, compared with an increase of 0.9 percent in the third.

Current-dollar GDP
Current-dollar GDP -- the market value of the nation's output of goods and services -- increased
3.2 percent, or $115.9 billion, in the fourth quarter to a level of $14,861.0 billion. In the third quarter,
current-dollar GDP increased 4.6 percent, or $166.4 billion.

Revisions
The downward revision to the percent change in real GDP primarily reflected an upward revision
to imports and downward revisions to state and local government spending and to personal consumption
expenditures (PCE) that were partly offset by an upward revision to exports.

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.
See “Explanatory Note” at the end of the tables.

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 services furnished without
payment) and the final consumption expenditures of nonprofit institutions serving households. Percentage changes for these series are included in the addenda to table 8 and appendix table A.

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.
