Selected Not Seasonally Adjusted Goods Details

Services exports increased $0.2 billion from July to
August. Increases in other transportation (which includes
freight and port services) and other private services (which
includes items such as business, professional, and technical
services, insurance services, and financial services) were
partly offset by a decrease in travel. Changes in other
categories of services exports were small.

The August figures showed surpluses, in billions of
dollars, with Australia $0.9 ($0.7 for July), Hong Kong $0.7
($0.7), Singapore $0.4 ($0.1), Egypt $0.2 ($0.1), and
Argentina $0.1 ($0.1). Deficits were recorded, in billions of
dollars, with China $22.0 ($19.6), Europe $13.7 ($15.6),

Japan $7.5 ($7.6), Mexico $6.2 ($5.1), Canada $6.1 ($5.9),
Taiwan $1.7 ($1.4), Korea $1.1 ($1.3), and Brazil $1.0 ($0.9).

Services imports decreased $0.1 billion from July to
August. Decreases in travel and royalties and license fees
were partly offset by an increase in other private services.
Changes in other categories of services imports were small.
From August 2005 to August 2006, services exports
increased $2.7 billion. The largest increases were in other
private services ($1.6 billion), other transportation ($0.7

billion).

on page 27 of this release, or at www.census.gov/ft900 or www.bea.gov/bea/di/home/trade.htm.
NOTE: The three-month moving averages shown in this exhibit are computed by summing the subject month, the two prior months, dividing
by three and showing the average at the end month of the period. A moving average is useful in smoothing the volatile trade data
so that trends can better be discerned.

INFORMATION ON GOODS AND SERVICES
GOODS
CENSUS BASIS
The Census basis goods data are compiled from the documents
collected by the U.S. Customs Border and Protection and reflect
the movement of goods between foreign countries and the 50
states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, and U.S. Foreign Trade Zones. They include
government and non-government shipments of goods, and
exclude shipments between the United States and its territories
and possessions, transactions with U.S. military, diplomatic and
consular installations abroad, U.S. goods returned to the United
States by its Armed Forces, personal and household effects of
travelers, and in-transit shipments. The General Imports value
reflects the total arrival of merchandise from foreign countries
that immediately enters consumption channels, warehouses, or
Foreign Trade Zones.
For imports, the value reported is the U.S. Customs Border and
Protection appraised value of merchandise; generally, the price
paid for merchandise for export to the United States. Import
duties, freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in bringing
merchandise to the United States are excluded.
Exports are valued at the f.a.s. - free alongside ship - value of
merchandise at the U.S. port of export, based on the transaction
price including inland freight, insurance, and other charges
incurred in placing the merchandise alongside the carrier at the
U.S. port of exportation.
Monthly data include actual month's transactions as well as a
small number of transactions for previous months. Each month
we revise the aggregate seasonally adjusted (current and chainweighted dollar) and unadjusted export, import and trade balance
figures, as well as the end-use totals for the prior month. SITC
and country detail data are not revised monthly. The timing
adjustment shown in Exhibit 14 is the difference between
monthly data as originally reported and as recompiled. Quarterly
revisions are made to the chain-weighted dollar series. In the last
month of each quarter, the current and previous quarter are
revised to incorporate the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ monthly
revisions and align Census and the U.S. Bureau of Economic
Analysis’ quarterly data. Annual revisions for the months are
made in June to reflect corrections received subsequent to the
monthly revision. These revisions are reflected in totals, end-use,
SITC and country summary data. The monthly end-use,
commodity, and country and area data presented in this release
are on a Census basis. This refers to Exhibits 6 - 18.

U.S./CANADA DATA EXCHANGE
AND SUBSTITUTION
The data for U.S. exports to Canada are derived from import data
compiled by Canada. The use of Canada's import data to produce
U.S. export data requires several alignments in order to compare
the two series.
1. Coverage -- Canadian imports are based on country of origin.
U.S. goods shipped from a third country are included. U.S.
exports exclude these foreign shipments. For August 2006,
these shipments totaled $140.6 million. U.S. export coverage
also excludes certain Canadian postal shipments. For August
2006, these shipments totaled $20.4 million.
U.S. import coverage includes shipments of railcars and
locomotives from Canada. Effective with January 2004
statistics, Canada excludes these shipments from its goods
exports to the United States, therefore creating coverage
differences between the two countries for these goods.
2. Valuation -- Canadian imports are valued at the point of
origin in the United States. However, U.S. exports are valued
at the port of exit in the United States and include inland
freight charges, making the U.S. export value slightly larger.
Canada requires inland freight to be reported. Inland freight
charges for August 2006 accounted for 2.1 percent of the
value of U.S. exports to Canada.
3. Reexports -- U.S. exports include reexports of foreign goods.
Again, the aggregate U.S. export figure is slightly larger.
For August 2006, reexports to Canada were $2,721 million.
4. Exchange Rate -- Average monthly exchange rates are applied
to convert the published data to U.S. currency. For August
2006, the average exchange rate was 1.1182 Canadian dollars
per U.S. dollar.
5. Other -- There are other minor differences which are
statistically insignificant, such as rounding error.

28
Canadian Estimates

AREA GROUPINGS (See Exhibits 14 and 14A)

Effective with January 2001 statistics, the current month data for
exports to Canada contain an estimate for late arrivals and
corrections. The following month, this estimate is replaced, in
the press release tables only, with the actual value of late receipts
and corrections. This estimate improves the current month data
for exports to Canada and treats late receipts for exports to
Canada in a manner more consistent with the treatment of late
receipts for exports to other countries.

North America - Canada, Mexico

Nonsampling errors
The goods data are a complete enumeration of documents
collected by the U.S. Customs Border and Protection and are not
subject to sampling errors; but they are subject to several types
of nonsampling errors. Quality assurance procedures are
performed at every stage of collection, processing and
tabulation; however the data are still subject to several types of
nonsampling errors. The most significant of these include
reporting errors, undocumented shipments, timeliness, data
capture errors, and errors in the estimation of low-valued
transactions.
Reporting Errors: Reporting errors are mistakes or omissions
made by importers, exporters or their agents in their import or
export declarations. Most errors involve missing or invalid
commodity classification codes and missing or incorrect
quantities or shipping weights. They have a negligible effect on
import, export and balance of trade statistics. However, they can
affect the detailed commodity statistics.
Undocumented Shipments: Federal regulations require
importers, exporters or their agents to report all merchandise
shipments above established exemption levels. The U.S. Census
Bureau has determined that not all required documents are filed,
particularly for exports.
Timeliness and Data Capture Errors: The U.S. Census
Bureau captures import and export information from
administrative documents and through various automated
collection programs. Documents may be lost, and data may be
incorrectly keyed, coded or recorded. Transactions may be
included in a subsequent month’s statistics if received late.
Low-valued Transactions: The total values of transactions
valued as much as or below $2,500 for exports and $2,000 ($250
for certain quota items) for imports are estimated for each
country, using factors based on the ratios of low-valued
shipments to individual country totals for past periods.
The U.S. Census Bureau recommends that data users incorporate
this information into their analyses, as nonsampling errors could
impact the conclusion drawn from the results. For a detailed
discussion of errors affecting the goods data, see “U.S.
Merchandise Trade Statistics: A Quality Profile” available on the
INTERNET at www.census.gov/foreigntrade/aip/index.html#infopapers or from the Foreign Trade
Division, U.S. Census Bureau.

Adjustments for Seasonal and Working-Day Variations

Advanced Technology Products (ATP)

Goods are initially classified under the Harmonized System (HS)
which describes and measures the characteristics of goods
traded. Combining trade into approximately 140 export and 140
import end-use categories makes it possible to examine goods
according to their principal uses (See Exhibits 7 and 8). These
categories are used as the basis for computing the seasonal and
working-day adjusted data. These adjusted data are then
summed to the six end-use aggregates for publication (Exhibit
6). These data are provided to the U.S. Bureau of Economic
Analysis, from the U.S. Census Bureau, for use in the Balance
of Payments and the National Income and Product Accounts.

About 500 of some 22,000 commodity classification codes used
in reporting U.S. merchandise trade are identified as "advanced
technology" codes and they meet the following criteria:
1. The code contains products whose technology is from a
recognized high technology field (e.g., biotechnology).
2. These products represent leading edge technology in that
field.
3. Such products constitute a significant part of all items covered
in the selected classification code.

The seasonal adjustment procedure is based on a model that
estimates the monthly movements as percentages above or below
the general level of each end-use commodity series (unlike other
methods that redistribute the actual series values over the
calendar year). Because of the extremely variable movements of
the data series for aircraft, users studying data trends may wish
to analyze aircraft separately from other trade.

The aggregation of the goods results in a measure of advanced
technology trade which appears in Exhibit 16 and 16A. This
product and commodity-based measure of advanced technology
differs from broader NAICS industry-based measures which
include all goods produced by a particular industry group,
regardless of the level of technology embodied in the goods.

Adjustments for Price Change

BALANCE OF PAYMENTS (BOP) BASIS

Data adjusted for seasonal variation on a chained-dollar basis
(2000 base year) are presented in Exhibits 10 and 11. This
adjustment for price change is done using the Fisher chainweighted methodology. The deflators are primarily based upon
the monthly price indexes published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics using techniques developed for the National Income
and Product Accounts by the U.S. Bureau of Economic
Analysis.

Goods on a Census basis are adjusted by the U.S. Bureau of
Economic Analysis to goods on a BOP basis to bring the data in
line with the concepts and definitions used to prepare the
international and national accounts. Broadly, the adjustments
include changes in ownership that occur without goods passing
into or out of the customs territory of the United States. These
adjustments are necessary to supplement coverage of the Census
basis data, to eliminate duplication of transactions recorded
elsewhere in the international accounts, and to value transactions
according to a standard definition.

SITC Data
Goods data appearing in Exhibit 15 are classified in terms of the
Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) Revision 3.
Agricultural goods consist of non-marine food products and
other products of agriculture which have not passed through
complex processes of manufacture, such as raw hides and skins,
fats and oils, and wine. A few goods such as essential oils,
starches, casein, and albumin, considered to be agricultural by
the U.S. Department of Agriculture, have been excluded from
agricultural goods and are included in manufactured goods
where they are classified in the SITC.
Manufactured goods conform to the SITC sections that include
chemicals and related products; manufactured goods classified
chiefly by material; machinery and transport equipment;
miscellaneous manufactured articles; and goods and transactions
not classified elsewhere.
Reexports are foreign merchandise entering the country as
imports, and at the time of exportation are in substantially the
same condition as when imported. Reexports, included in
overall export totals, appear as separate line items in Exhibit 15.

The export adjustments include:
U.S. military sales contracts - This deduction of U.S.
military sales contracts is made because the U.S. Census
Bureau has included these contracts in the goods data, but
BEA includes them in the service category "Transfers Under
U.S. Military Sales Contracts." BEA's source material for
these contracts is more comprehensive, but has no distinction
between goods and services.
Private gift parcels - This addition is made for parcels mailed
to foreigners by individuals through the U.S. Postal Service.
(Only commercial shipments are covered in Census goods
exports.)
Gold exports, nonmonetary - This addition is made for gold
that is purchased by foreign official agencies from private
dealers in the United States and held at the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York. The Census data only include gold that
leaves the customs territory.

30
Some smaller adjustments are also made to exports:
Deductions for repairs of goods, developed motion picture
film, and military grant-aid. Additions for sales of fish in
U.S. territorial waters, exports of electricity to Mexico, and
vessels and oil rigs that change ownership for which no
export document is filed.
The import adjustments include:
Inland freight in Canada - An addition is made for inland
freight in Canada. Imports of goods from all countries are
valued at the foreign port of export, including inland freight
charges (“customs value”). In the case of Canada, this should
be the cost of the goods at the U.S. border. However, the
customs value for imports for certain Canadian goods is the
point of origin in Canada. The BEA makes an addition for
the inland freight charges of transporting these Canadian
goods to the U.S. border to make the value comparable to the
customs value as reported by all other countries. Insurance
and freight charges for transporting goods to the United
States from all other countries to the U.S. border are included
in services by the BEA. (The same procedure is used for
Mexico as an Other Adjustment, but is much smaller.)
Gold imports, nonmonetary - This addition is made for gold
sold by foreign official agencies to private purchasers out of
stock held at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The
Census data only include gold that enters the customs
territory.
Imports by U.S. military agencies - This deduction of U.S.
military sales contracts is made because the U.S. Census
Bureau has included these contracts in the goods data, but
BEA includes them in the service category "Direct Defense
Expenditures."
BEA's source material is more
comprehensive, but has no distinction between goods and
services.
Some smaller adjustments are also made to imports:
Deductions for repairs of goods and developed motion
picture film. Additions for imported electricity from Mexico,
conversion of vessels for commercial use, repairs to U.S.
vessels abroad, and valuation of prepackaged software
imports at market value.
SERVICES
The statistics are estimates of services transactions between
foreign countries and the 50 states, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other U.S. territories
and possessions. Transactions with U.S. military, diplomatic,
and consular installations abroad are excluded because they are
considered to be part of the U.S. economy.
Services are shown in seven broad categories. Types of services
for imports and exports are the same for six of the seven
categories. For the seventh, exports is "Transfers Under U.S.

Military Sales Contracts" while for imports the category
is "Direct Defense Expenditures." The following is a brief
description of the types of services included in each category:
Travel - Purchases of services and goods by U.S. travelers abroad
and by foreign visitors to the United States. A traveler is defined
as a person who stays for a period of less than 1 year in a country
of which the person is not a resident. Includes expenditures for
food, lodging, recreation, gifts, and other items incidental to a
foreign visit.
Passenger Fares - Fares paid by residents of one country to
residents of other countries. Receipts consist of fares received by
U.S. carriers from foreign residents for travel between the United
States and foreign countries and between two foreign points.
Payments consist of fares paid by U.S. residents to foreign
carriers for travel between the United States and foreign
countries.
Other Transportation - Charges for the transportation of goods
by ocean, air, waterway, pipeline, and rail carriers to and from the
United States. Includes freight charges, operating expenses that
transportation companies incur in foreign ports, and payments for
vessel charter and aircraft rentals with crew.
Royalties and License Fees - Transactions with foreign residents
involving intangible assets and proprietary rights, such as the use
of patents, techniques, processes, formulas, designs, know-how,
trademarks, copyrights, franchises, and manufacturing rights.
The term "royalties" generally refers to payments for the
utilization of copyrights or trademarks, and the term "license
fees" generally refers to payments for the use of patents or
industrial processes.
Other Private Services - Transactions with affiliated foreigners,
for which no identification by type is available, and transactions
with unaffiliated foreigners. (The term “affiliated” refers to a
direct investment relationship, which exists when a U.S. person
has ownership or control, directly or indirectly, of 10 percent or
more of a foreign business enterprise’s voting securities or the
equivalent, or when a foreign person has a similar interest in a
U.S. enterprise.) Transactions with unaffiliated foreigners consist
of education services; financial services (includes commissions
and other transactions fees associated with the purchase and sale
of securities and noninterest income of banks, and excludes
investment income); insurance services; telecommunications
services (includes transmission services and value-added
services); and business, professional, and technical services.
Included in the last group are advertising services; computer and
data processing services; database and other information services;
research, development, and testing services; management,
consulting, and public relations services; legal services;
construction, engineering, architectural, and mining services;
industrial engineering services; installation, maintenance, and
repair of equipment; and other services, including medical
services and film and tape rentals.

31
Transfers Under U.S. Military Sales Contracts (Exports
only) - Exports of goods and services in which U.S.
Government military agencies participate. Includes both
goods, such as equipment, and services, such as repair
services and training, that cannot be separately identified.
Direct Defense Expenditures (Imports only) - Expenditures
incurred by U.S. military agencies abroad, including
expenditures by U.S. personnel, payments of wages to
foreign residents, construction expenditures, payments for
foreign contractual services, and procurement of foreign
goods. Includes both goods and services that cannot be
separately identified.
U.S. Government Miscellaneous Services - Transactions
of U.S. Government nonmilitary agencies with foreign
residents. Most of these transactions involve the provision
of services to, or purchases of services from, foreigners;
transfers of some goods are also included.
Services estimates are based on quarterly, annual, and
benchmark surveys and partial information generated from
monthly reports. Service transactions are estimated at market
prices. Estimates are seasonally adjusted when statistically
significant seasonal patterns are present. No country or area
detail is available due to the lack of adequate source data upon
which to base estimates.
The revision policy is as follows: Each month, a preliminary
estimate for the current month and a revised estimate for the
immediately preceding month are released. After a revised
month is released, no further changes are made to that month
until more complete source data become available in March,
June, September, and December. The releases in March, June,
September, and December contain revised data for the previous
six months. The release in March also contains revisions for all
months of the previous year in order to align the seasonally
adjusted monthly data with annual totals. The release in June
contains annual revisions, which reflect updated source data and
changes in estimating methodologies.

Quarterly and annual
estimates of services are
included as part of the U.S.
international transactions
accounts, published in the
April, July, October, and
January issues of the Survey
of Current Business. The
next release of the U.S.
international transactions
accounts is scheduled for
December 18, 2006. The
Survey is available from the
Superintendent of
Documents,
U.S.
Government Printing Office,
Washington, D.C. 20402.
