The increase in personal income in August primarily reflected increases in compensation of employees,
personal income receipts on assets, and government social benefits to persons (table 3).
The decrease in real PCE in August primarily reflected a decrease in spending for durable goods that was
partially offset by an increase in spending for services (table 7).
Personal outlays increased $6.1 billion in August (table 3). Personal saving was $807.6 billion in August
and the personal saving rate, personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income, was 5.7
percent (table 1).

Revisions
Estimates have been revised for April through July. The percent change from the preceding month for
current-dollar personal income, and for current-dollar and chained (2009) dollar DPI and PCE -- revised

Statistical conventions
Annual rates. Monthly and quarterly values are expressed
at seasonally-adjusted annual rates (SAAR). Dollar changes
are calculated as the difference between these SAAR
values. For detail, see the FAQ “Why does BEA publish
estimates at annual rates?”
Month-to-month percent changes are calculated from
unrounded data and are not annualized.
Quarter-to-quarter percent changes are calculated from
unrounded data and are displayed at annual rates. For
detail, see the FAQ “How is average annual growth
calculated?”

Definitions
Personal income is the income received by, or on behalf
of, all persons from all sources: from participation as
laborers in production, from owning a home or business,
from the ownership of financial assets, and from
government and business in the form of transfers. It
includes income from domestic sources as well as the rest
of world. It does not include realized or unrealized capital
gains or losses.

Quantities and prices. Quantities, or “real” volume
measures, and prices are expressed as index numbers with
a specified reference year equal to 100 (currently 2009).
Quantity and price indexes are calculated using a Fisherchained weighted formula that incorporates weights from
two adjacent periods (quarters for quarterly data and
annuals for annual data). “Real” dollar series are
calculated by multiplying the published quantity index by
the current dollar value in the reference year (2009) and
then dividing by 100. Percent changes calculated from real
quantity indexes and chained-dollar levels are
conceptually the same; any differences are due to
rounding.

Disposable personal income is the income available to
persons for spending or saving. It is equal to personal
income less personal current taxes.
Personal consumption expenditures (PCE) is the value of
the goods and services purchased by, or on the behalf of,
“persons” who reside in the United States.

Chained-dollar values are not additive because the
relative weights for a given period differ from those of the
reference year.

Personal outlays is the sum of PCE, personal interest
payments, and personal current transfer payments.
Personal saving is personal income less personal outlays
and personal current taxes.
The personal saving rate is personal saving as a
percentage of disposable personal income.
Current-dollar estimates are valued in the prices of the
period when the transactions occurred—that is, at
“market value.” Also referred to as “nominal estimates” or
as “current-price estimates.”
