COVID-19 Impact on November 2020 Personal Income and Outlays
The November estimate for personal income and outlays was impacted by the response to the
spread of COVID-19. Federal economic recovery payments slowed as pandemic-related assistance
programs continued to wind down. The full economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot
be quantified in the personal income and outlays estimate because the impacts are generally
embedded in source data and cannot be separately identified. For more information, see Effects
of Selected Federal Pandemic Response Programs on Personal Income.

The decrease in personal income in November primarily reflected decreases in proprietors’ income
(both nonfarm and farm) and government social benefits that were partly offset by an increase in
compensation (table 3).

•

Within nonfarm proprietors’ income, the decrease reflected a decline in Paycheck Protection
Program loans to businesses.

•

The decrease in farm proprietors’ income reflected a decrease in payments under the
Coronavirus Food Assistance Program related to supporting farmers and ranchers impacted by
COVID-19 as well as a decline in Paycheck Protection Program loans to businesses.

•

Within government social benefits, “other” social benefits decreased, which primarily reflected
a decrease in Lost Wages Supplemental Payments, a Federal Emergency Management Agency
program that provides wage assistance to individuals impacted by the pandemic.

•

Within compensation, the main contributor was an increase in wages and salaries in serviceproducing industries.

The $58.5 billion decrease in real PCE in November reflected decreases of $53.7 billion in spending for
goods and $12.1 billion in spending for services (table 7). Within goods, the leading contributors to the
decrease were spending for clothing and footwear as well as motor vehicles and parts (mainly new
motor vehicles). A notable offset was an increase in spending for food and beverages purchased for offpremises consumption. Within services, the decrease primarily reflected decreases in spending for food
services and accommodations as well as in household utilities (electricity and gas). Detailed information
on monthly real PCE spending can be found on Table 2.3.6U.
Personal outlays decreased $66.8 billion in November (table 3). Personal saving was $2.22 trillion in
November and the personal saving rate—personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal
income—was 12.9 percent (table 1).

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?” and “Why does BEA publish percent changes
in quarterly series at annual rates?”

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 2012).
Quantity and price indexes are calculated using a Fisherchained weighted formula that incorporates weights from
two adjacent periods (months for monthly data, quarters
for quarterly data and annuals for annual data). For details
on the calculation of quantity and price indexes, see
Chapter 4: Estimating Methods in the NIPA Handbook.

Disposable personal income is the income available to
persons for spending or saving. It is equal to personal
income less personal current taxes.

Chained-dollar values are calculated by multiplying the
quantity index by the current dollar value in the reference
year (2012) 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. Chained-dollar values are not additive
because the relative weights for a given period differ from
those of the reference year. In tables that display chaineddollar values, a "residual" line shows the difference
between the sum of detailed chained-dollar series and its
corresponding aggregate.

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.
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.”

1. Includes actual employer contributions and actuarially imputed employer contributions to reflect benefits accrued by defined benefit pension plan participants through service to employers in the current period.
2. Social security benefits include old-age, survivors, and disability insurance benefits that are distributed from the federal old-age and survivors insurance trust fund and the disability insurance trust fund.
3. Medicare benefits include hospital and supplementary medical insurance benefits that are distributed from the federal hospital insurance trust fund and the supplementary medical insurance trust fund.
4. Consists of nonmortgage interest paid by households. Note that mortgage interest paid by households is an expense item in the calculation of rental income of persons.
5. The current-dollar measure is deflated by the implicit price deflator for personal consumption expenditures.
6. Population is the total population of the United States, including the Armed Forces overseas and the institutionalized population. The monthly estimate is the average of estimates for the first of the month and the first of the following month; the
annual and quarterly estimates are averages of the monthly estimates.
