This news release presents revised estimates of wages and salaries, personal taxes, and
contributions for government social insurance for January through March 2007 (first quarter). These
estimates reflect newly available first-quarter wage and salary tabulations from the quarterly census
of employment and wages from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

NOTE.--Monthly estimates are expressed at seasonally adjusted annual rates, unless otherwise specified. Monthto-month dollar changes are differences between these published estimates. Month-to-month percent changes are
calculated from unrounded data and are not annualized. “Real” estimates are in chained (2000) dollars.

Personal outlays and personal saving
Personal outlays -- PCE, personal interest payments, and personal current transfer payments
increased $37.1 billion in July, compared with an increase of $26.0 billion in June. PCE increased

July, compared with 0.5 percent in June. Saving from current income may be near zero or negative
when outlays are financed by borrowing (including borrowing financed through credit cards or home
equity loans), by selling investments or other assets, or by using savings from previous periods. For
more information, see the FAQs on “Personal Saving” on BEA’s Web site. For a comparison of
personal saving in BEA’s national income and product accounts with personal saving in the Federal
Reserve Board’s flow of funds accounts and data on changes in net worth (which helped finance
negative saving), go to http://www.bea.gov/bea/dn/nipaweb/Nipa-Frb.asp.

in contrast to a decrease of 1.8 percent. Purchases of nondurable goods increased 0.4 percent,

Revisions
Estimates for personal income and DPI have been revised for January through June;
estimates for PCE have been revised for April through June. Changes in personal income, currentdollar and chained (2000) dollar DPI, and current-dollar and chained (2000) dollar PCE for May and
June -- revised and as published in last month's release -- are shown below.
For January through June, the revisions to wages and salaries reflect the incorporation of the
most recently available BLS tabulations of first-quarter private wages and salaries from the quarterly
census of employment and wages. Revisions to personal current taxes and to contributions for
government social insurance reflect the revisions to wages and salaries.
