BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE
FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM







Preface
In 1943 the Board of Governors published
Banking and Monetary Statistics to make available in one place and on a uniform basis major
series relating to banking, monetary, and other
financial developments. The statistics usually
covered the period from 1914, when the Federal Reserve System was established, through
December 1941.
To bring together for the period since 1941
the most important series in that volume, to
revise the data previously published, and to
present new series, the Board is publishing a
series of pamphlets. Most of these pamphlets
correspond to sections in Banking and Monetary Statistics, but some may cover new subjects. Most of the data included in these
pamphlets have already been published in the

Federal Reserve Bulletin, and current figures
for most of the series are published in it each
month. In some instances, however, the type
of presentation may vary considerably from
that in the Bulletin.
This is one of the new pamphlets. As in
Banking and Monetary Statistics, there is a
brief description of the purpose and history of
the data, the sources of the figures and the
methods by which they were compiled, and
other facts to guide the reader in using the
figures. Much of the information that is customarily included in footnotes to tables has been
incorporated in the text. Footnotes have been
used for the most part to call the reader's attention to any lack of comparability of items over
the period covered.

16 (New). Consumer Credit

CONSUMER CREDIT has had an influence on
many aspects of economic activity during the
past 50 years. Much of its influence stems
from the use of instalment credit to finance
purchases of automobiles and other consumer
durable goods. This practice, which began
before World War I and developed rapidly
during the 1920's, has played an important
part in the development and maintenance of
a wide market for consumer durable goods.
In recent years there has been an increasing
tendency to use consumer credit also for purchases of nondurable goods and services.
Consumer credit, as the term is defined here,
includes only short- and intermediate-term
credit. It excludes real estate mortgage credit,
which is almost entirely long term.
By using consumer credit, many persons who
have not accumulated in advance the capital
to buy goods outright have been able to enjoy
them while meeting monthly payments convenient for their budgets. Others have been
able to finance their purchases in this way
without disturbing their capital investments
and their planned savings programs.
Consumer credit thus is an important means
of financing the flow of goods and services
into final consumption and is a factor influencing the level of economic activity. Over long
periods of generally rising activity the extension of credit to purchasers of consumer goods
has supplemented current purchasing power,
and this has tended to stimulate production
and employment. But substantial increases in
consumer purchasing power through the extension of credit in periods of high economic activity are appropriate only when the terms on
which the credit is extended are prudent, the
growth in such credit does not contribute ex-




cessively to monetary expansion, and when the
new purchasing power is matched by an increase in the supply of goods at relatively
stable prices.
To provide consumer credit, an elaborate
structure of financial and service organizations
has developed. Many of these organizations
require substantial amounts of private capital
and bank credit. Commercial banks not only
supply funds to other financial and retail organizations to carry consumer accounts receivable but also are active in lending directly to
consumers and in purchasing instalment paper
from retail outlets. An understanding of these
credit demands and of their effects on total
demand for credit requires adequate current
information on developments and changes in
consumer credit.
BACKGROUND OF SERIES

Groundwork for the Board's consumer credit
series was laid in the late 1930's when the
National Bureau of Economic Research and
the Russell Sage Foundation1 cooperated with
the U.S. Department of Commerce in developing a series of estimates. In 1940—with
the support and cooperation of retailers, financial institutions, and trade associations—the
Department of Commerce set up a system for
obtaining the information needed for preparing estimates of consumer credit outstanding
each month.
In August 1941 the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System was given the responsibility for regulating consumer credit, and
it issued its Regulation W entitled "Consumer
1

(Russell Sage Foundation, 1939).

Credit." To carry out this responsibility, it
began to collect information pertaining to various types of consumer credit. Shortly thereafter—in 1942—the responsibility for maintaining the official statistics on consumer credit was
transferred from the Department of Commerce
to the Federal Reserve System. This centralization of the collection of the statistics served
to make maximum use of the information that
was available within the Federal Reserve,
to eliminate duplication and inconsistency in
reporting, and to minimize for respondents the
burden of reporting. Since 1942 the Board
of Governors has been the primary source of
aggregative consumer credit statistics even
though authority for consumer credit regulation expired in 1952.
Like most economic statistics, the consumer
credit series are based largely on comprehensive benchmark data which become available
periodically. Current monthly estimates are
extrapolated from the latest benchmarks on
the basis of sample data. Such data are obtained through the voluntary cooperation of
lenders and other credit granters who submit
regular reports of their consumer credit operations. As new benchmark data become available, the monthly estimates are reviewed and
revised as necessary.
The estimates for the various segments of
consumer credit published each month are for
the nation as a whole, including Alaska from
January 1959 and Hawaii from August 1959.
Data are not compiled for individual States or
for metropolitan areas as a rule.
Where possible, the monthly estimates for
consumer credit begin with 1940. In addition,
estimates of credit outstanding at year-end are
available for the period 1919-39.
Tables showing current estimates of consumer credit outstanding, extended, and repaid, by both type and holder, are published
regularly in the monthly Federal Reserve Bulletin. Several statistical releases are issued each
month to provide additional detail, as indicated
later in this section.




DEFINITIONS AND CONCEPTS

The Federal Reserve series, "consumer
credit," includes all short- and intermediateterm credit that is extended through regular
business channels to finance the purchase of
commodities and services for personal consumption, or to refinance debts incurred for
such purposes. In this sense, consumer credit
may refer either to an advance of funds
for the purchase of goods or services or to an
advance of goods or services in exchange for
a promise to pay at a later date. No minimum
period for repayment is set by this definition,
except that there must be some lapse of time
between the transfer of the goods or services
and the payment for them.
Personal consumption is considered an end
in itself, as distinguished from the process of
using up or "consuming" goods and services
as a stage in production. Thus the concept of
consumer credit excludes credit extended to
businesses or to individuals exclusively for
business purposes. Credit extended to governmental agencies or to nonprofit or charitable
organizations is also excluded.
Some of the basic data available do not
embody these conceptual distinctions and thus
require adjustments to eliminate the nonconsumer elements. These adjustments will be
described in later sections on estimating methods. Nevertheless, it has not been possible to
make certain other adjustments that in principle
ought to be effected, because there is no
statistical basis on which to make the adjustments or because the conceptual distinctions
themselves are not clear in practice. For example, the System's commercial bank call report data on loans to farmers do not segregate
credit for consumption from that for production purposes. As the bulk of the total is for
production purposes, the practice has been to
exclude these loans entirely from the consumer credit figures.
A similar problem arises with credit used
to purchase multipurpose durable goods such

as automobiles. These goods may serve both
consumption and business purposes, but no
data are available for apportioning the credit
involved between consumer and nonconsumer
uses. In practice, therefore, credit obtained by
individuals for the purchase of passenger cars
is included as consumer credit, whereas any
credit obtained by individuals for the purchase
of commercial vehicles and other commodities
and equipment used primarily for business is
not included.
The consumer credit series also excludes
policy loans of life insurance companies even
though these loans have some of the characteristics of loans against shares in savings
and loan associations, which are included.
There are two bases for this exclusion. One is
the customary absence of a definite repayment
schedule for policy loans, the majority of
which are not repaid. The other is the lack of
a statistical basis for segregating the large proportion of such credit known to be for business
purposes. Inasmuch as the amount of policy
loans is large, this lack of adequate data could
lead to sizable errors in the consumer credit
estimates.
The Federal Reserve series also excludes two
other types of consumer credit because of lack
of adequate statistical information. These are
loans by one individual to another for consumption purposes, and similar loans made by
businesses to their employees.
The practical difficulties of measurement
noted above cause the published consumer
credit series to depart somewhat from the basic
concepts and, on balance, to understate the
amount of short- and intermediate-term consumer credit outstanding. However, the movements shown in the series are believed to reflect reasonably well both the current and the
longer-term trends in consumer credit.
MAJOR TYPES OF CONSUMER CREDIT

Consumer credit is divided into two major
types, instalment and noninstalment, which in




turn are subdivided according to both the type
of credit and the kind of institution to which
the obligation is owed. The accompanying
chart shows the components of the consumer
credit series and estimates of the amounts outstanding held by the different types of retail
and financial institutions on December 31,
1963.
Instalment credit. Instalment credit represents all consumer credit that is scheduled to
be repaid in two or more payments. Revolving credit, budget, and coupon accounts are
treated as instalment credit rather than as
charge accounts because they provide for
scheduled repayment on a periodic basis. Published estimates of the amount of instalment
credit outstanding generally include the financing charges on such credit and the cost of
insurance or other fees included in the credit
contract.
The four principal classes of instalment
credit are automobile paper, other consumer
goods paper, home repair and modernization
loans, and personal loans.
Automobile paper represents credit extended for the purchase of new or used automobiles, whether or not the credit is specifically secured by the automobile purchased.
Similarly, "other consumer goods paper" represents credit extended for the purchase of such
nonautomotive consumer goods as home appliances and furniture, jewelry, mobile homes,
and boats.
Automobile credit and other consumer
goods credit often are extended to the consumer by a retailer; sometimes the retailer will
hold the paper for his own account, but in
many instances he will sell it to a sales
finance company, a commercial bank, or some
other financial institution. In other instances
instalment paper represents loans made directly
by lending institutions to consumers for the
purchase of goods and services.
Repair and modernization loans include both

and noninsured credit extended to consumers

to finance the maintenance and improvement
of their homes. Such credit may be used for
the purchase and installation of equipment,
such as heating and air-conditioning systems, hot water heaters, storm windows, and
kitchen equipment, as well as for major alterations and additions.
Personal loans include all instalment loans
not covered in the previous categories that are
made by financial institutions to individuals for
consumer purposes. Many of these loans are
obtained for the consolidation of consumer
debts, for the payment of medical, educational,
or travel expenses, and for the payment of
taxes or insurance premiums. Some loans used
for the purchase of automobiles or other consumer goods may be classified as personal
loans because the lender cannot identify them
with purchases of specific goods.
Each of these types of instalment credit is
subdivided according to the type of retail outlet or financial institution holding the credit.
This method of classification does not necessarily indicate the originator of the credit.
Credit held by financial institutions thus is
classified according to its current holder,
whether the institution made the loans directly
to consumers or purchased the paper from
the retail outlet that originated the credit.
Only the paper retained by retail outlets is
attributed to them in the breakdown of consumer instalment credit by holder.
Noninstalment credit. Noninstalment credit
consists of those forms of consumer credit that
are scheduled to be repaid in a lump sum.
There are three major components: single-payment loans, charge accounts, and service credit.
Single-payment loans are noninstalment
loans made directly to individuals for consumer
purposes. Some credit of this type is used for
the purchase of goods, but most is for meeting
short-term needs such as for the payment of
personal taxes or life insurance premiums.
Charge accounts represent noninstalment
balances owed to retail outlets for purchases
made by consumers. These are open accounts




ordinarily payable in full within 30 days of
billing. The charge-account segment also includes the amounts consumers owe on accounts
at gasoline service stations or on miscellaneous
credit-card accounts and on home-heating-oil
accounts. Such indebtedness differs from other
charge-account credit in that it does not take
the form of outstanding balances on the books
of retail outlets.
Service credit consists of the amounts owed
by consumers to professional practitioners and
service establishments. The largest element in
service credit is the amount owed to doctors,
hospitals, and other suppliers of medical services. Amounts owed to public utilities, less
deposits and prepayments, are also substantial. The remainder of service credit represents amounts owed for a wide variety of
services, including education, recreation, and
such personal services as laundry, cleaning,
and dyeing.
INSTALMENT CREDIT EXTENSIONS AND
REPAYMENTS

Estimates of instalment credit extended, repaid, and outstanding represent summaries of
accounting records. Conceptually, the amount
of credit extended covers substantially all debit
entries to the instalment receivable accounts
of financial institutions and retail outlets for
any given period and credit repaid covers substantially all of the credit entries. The amount
of outstanding credit represents the sum of the
balances in the accounts. Thus the difference
between credit extended and credit repaid
during any given period is equal to the change
in the outstanding balance during the period,
after allowance is made for losses and chargeoffs.2
2
In principle, charge-offs of bad debts should be excluded
from repayments, and sale or transfer of existing paper among
creditors excluded both from repayments and from extensions.
In practice these rules cannot be fully implemented. In particular, information is not available to make separate estimates
of the amount of charge-offs. Since the amounts involved
under most circumstances are relatively small, charge-offs are

The amount of credit outstanding is constantly being altered as new credit is extended
and as payments are made to retire credit previously extended. It is through this continuous
process that economic events are reflected in
the outstanding amount of credit. Credit extensions are much more dynamic and volatile
than repayments, and they reflect more directly
the impact of changing market conditions. The
volume of each type of instalment credit extended is related in one way or another to the
general level of income and consumption expenditures. It also reflects certain types of
seasonal outlays—for example, tax payments
on purchases of such seasonal equipment as air
conditioners or home heating units. Repayments are governed by the amount and terms
of past contracts and are affected by current
economic developments only to the extent
that these result in delinquencies or prepayments.
In addition to their usefulness in the
analysis of instalment credit developments,
data on extensions and repayments are valuable in interpreting other economic events.
Because of the importance of instalment credit
in consumer purchases of automobiles and
other consumer durable items, information on
the amount of instalment credit extended is
often fundamental to the interpretation
of developments in the markets for these products. And because of the contractual nature of
repayments, information on their volume provides an indication of the current and prospective burden of instalment credit on consumers and may provide some insight into
future expenditures by consumers.
Instalment credit may serve as an alteraaincluded as repayments in most of the components of the
Federal Reserve series. In that segment of the total where
estimates of repayments are developed from data on collections, the effect of not knowing the volume of charge-offs is to
reduce moderately the derived estimates of credit extended.
For a mathematical description of the relationship of credit
extended and outstanding credit, see Appendix B by Paul A.
Samuelson in Gottfried Haberler, Consumer Instalment Credit
and Economic Fluctuations (National Bureau of Economic
Research, New York, 1942).




tive to the use of accumulated savings, or it
may provide the only way in which the consumer can finance his purchases. The amount
of such credit that is used reflects to some extent the demand for the goods involved, the
willingness of individual buyers to commit their
future incomes, and the availability of credit
on acceptable terms.
The terms on which credit is available vary
somewhat from one type of credit to another.
Downpayments may range from zero in the
case of clothing or small items to one-third
or more for automobiles. Maturities may
range from a few months for some nondurable
and small durable items to more than 3 years
for repair and modernization loans and mobile
homes. Contract terms are an important factor in the ability and willingness of consumers
to use instalment credit to facilitate current
purchases. Large downpayment requirements
or large monthly instalments may make it impossible for some potential buyers to make
purchases, particularly of the larger and more
expensive items.
The relationship of repayments to the outstanding amount of credit differs for each type
of credit because of differences in the rate of
credit extension and variations in contract
terms. Personal loans and "other consumer
goods paper" normally have the shortest
maturities, and the volume of repayments on
such loans during any period of time is correspondingly large compared with the outstanding amount. Maturities on automobile
paper are somewhat longer, with the result
that repayments are not so large relative to
amounts outstanding. In the case of repair
and modernization loans, where contracts for
5 years or more are common, repayments are
comparatively small in relation to the amount
of credit outstanding.
Between credit extensions and repayments
there is a direct relationship that stems from
the nature of the instalment contract. Each
instalment contract sets forth th° schedule of
repayments to be followed. Ri
"nts are

to be made over a given number of months,
and the payment in each month is to be only
a fraction of the amount originally extended.
Each month repayments originating from contracts written in the previous month add to
the volume of repayments. At the same time,
payments on earlier contracts that have expired drop out of theflowof repayments.3 The
relationship between extensions and repayments results in the varying lag that is observable in repayments as credit extensions expand
or contract. The length of this lag depends
upon the maturities of the contracts involved
and varies with changes in maturities.
Wholesale transactions can affect the usual
relationship of extensions to repayments for
particular lender groups without affecting
total consumer credit outstanding. When
one type of lender sells consumer paper on
its books to another lending institution, the
transaction is customarily recorded in the
Federal Reserve series as a rise in repayments
to the seller and a decline in his consumer
accounts receivable, and as a corresponding
increase in the extensions and outstandings of
the purchasing institution.
Generally, however, adjustments are called
for if such shifts in ownership of consumer
paper are sizable. These adjustments are
most frequent in nonautomotive consumer
goods paper, and most of them involve a transfer between the retail parent and its finance
subsidiary. Such transactions, although necessarily reflected in the outstanding balances of
both seller and purchaser, often have little or
no economic significance, and they have no
effect on the debt position of consumers. Therefore, an effort is made to exclude such shifts
from the estimates of extensions and repayments
for both holder groups. This procedure also
tends to prevent distortion of seasonal behavior
3
This pattern is interrupted only when delinquencies or
prepayments occur. Some prepayments are the result of refinancing, when a new loan is made for the purpose of
retiring an existing loan. In such cases, the transaction takes
the form of equal increases in both extensions and repayments
during the period.




in the extensions and repayments series. It
should be noted, however, that when such adjustments are made, the net balance of extensions over repayments for each of these two
holder groups differs from the change in their
holdings during that month.
The ratio of repayments to the amount of
instalment credit outstanding at the beginning
of the month is sometimes used to estimate
the average duration of such indebtedness.
Letting R equal the ratio of repayments to
the outstanding amount at the beginning of
the period, the average maturity in months is

*-•••
This formula assumes that the level of
credit extensions is stable, whereas in practice
credit extensions are rarely stable over periods
of more than a few months. The formula thus
tends to understate or overstate the average
maturity according to whether the volume of
extensions is expanding or contracting.
This formula sometimes is used to measure
the average maturity of contracts currently
being written. But in this use the limitations
of the formula are even greater, because repayments on contracts currently being written are
such a small proportion of each month's total
repayments.
RELATION TO OTHER STATISTICS

Several features of the extensions and repayments data need to be borne in mind. Like
the estimates of the amount outstanding, estimates of instalment credit extended include
any financing and insurance charges that are
part of the instalment contract. Similarly, instalment credit repayments include the payments on these charges. The inclusion of
financing charges is general for most types of
instalment contracts, because these charges
4
For a more detailed description of this formula, see Milan
V. Ayres, Instalment Mathematics Handbook (Ronald Press,
1946), pp. 100-03.

are usually written into the contract on a discount or add-on basis. The inclusion of insurance charges is already of importance in the
case of automobile instalment credit and is
becoming more significant for other types of
credit.
In addition, the figures on instalment credit
extended and repaid include loans to refinance
or consolidate other instalment obligations or
to renew existing loans. These items simultaneously add to credit extended and credit
repaid, without having any effect on the
amount outstanding, apart from small differences in total financing charges. The exact
amount of such refinancing is not known, but
it is large enough to affect comparison of
extensions and of repayments with such other
aggregates as disposable personal income or
consumer purchases of goods and services.
Renewals and refinancing occur most frequently in the personal instalment loan
category, and they often provide the occasion
for extension of new credit as well. They are
perhaps somewhat less common in the case of
automobile loans, although no longer ago than
1955 one-fifth of all credit buyers of new cars
still owed money on the cars that they were
trading in.5
The inclusion of these various items in the
estimates of instalment credit extended and
repaid probably causes no serious difficulty for
many analytical purposes. Most of the time

the broad movements of credit extended and
repaid would not appear significantly different
if financing and insurance charges and loan
renewals were excluded.
Comparisons with certain other economic
measures are complicated, however, by such
characteristics of the data. For example, for
the purpose of measuring the role of instalment credit extensions in financing the purchase of automobiles, adjustments would be
required to eliminate renewals and refinancing
from the series for extensions. Adjustments
also would be required in the estimates of consumption expenditures for automobiles, as published by the Department of Commerce in the
annual gross national product accounts. These
estimates are intended to measure only current
production and to exclude transfers of existing goods. Consequently, sales of used cars
are not included, but the dealers' margins on
such sales are included. Furthermore, in the
Commerce series the estimates for automobile
expenditures exclude some of the accessories
purchased with new cars. Expenditures for
these items are included instead in a separate
series for expenditures on automobile parts
and accessories. Finally, the adjustment that is
made to eliminate business credit from the estimates of instalment credit extended differs
from the adjustment made by the Department
of Commerce to eliminate business purchases
from the consumption expenditure estimates.

ESTIMATES OF INSTALMENT CREDIT
The estimates for instalment credit center
around a set of national figures on the amounts
of such credit outstanding, extended, and repaid. For noninstalment credit, on the other
hand, the only estimates are those for outstanding balances.
5
Consumer Instalment Credit, Part IV, "Financing New Car
Purchases" (Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, 1957).




Estimates for instalment credit are made by
type of credit for each major holder group—
commercial banks, sales finance companies,
other financial institutions, and retail outlets.
Inasmuch as the series are built up from the
parts to the whole, and there are differences
among the holder groups in the sources of
data and the methods of estimation, the various holder groups will be considered in turn.

FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS

Financial institutions hold nearly 90 per cent of
all consumer instalment credit outstanding and
retail outlets the remainder. Among financial
institutions, commercial banks are the major
holders. Currently they account for more than
two-fifths of all holdings by such institutions.
Sales finance companies are next, with nearly
one-third of the total for the financial group.
Commercial banks. Commercial banks include all Federal Reserve member banks and
all nonmember commercial banks in the United
States, exclusive of banks in territories or
possessions. Almost all of these banks engage
in consumer credit activities—by direct lending to consumers, by buying retail instalment
contracts, or both.
Benchmarks and adjustments. The first official benchmarks for consumer paper held by
commercial banks are those for 1942 shown
in call reports of condition submitted by insured banks to supervisory authorities. The
figures for earlier years are based on year-end
estimates by the Russell Sage Foundation, the
National Bureau of Economic Research, and
the Federal Reserve Board.
Schedule A, added to the call report with
the 1942 revision, provided for insured banks
to report instalment loans to individuals separately, by type of loan, on June and December
dates. It was not until June 1961 that data by
loan type became available for noninsured
banks in the reports of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation. Noninsured banks hold
less than 1 per cent of all consumer credit
held by commercial banks. The distribution
of loans held by noninsured banks for the
period before 1961 is estimated from the loan
distribution of country member banks.
Call reports provide for reporting of instalment loans to individuals in four classifications: automobile, other consumer goods, repair and modernization, and personal. In
some cases, however, these totals do not give
an accurate picture of consumer liability for




such credit. Therefore, it is necessary to make
two types of adjustments in the totals.
In connection with some loans to individuals, borrowers accumulate deposits that
are assigned or pledged to assure payment of
their loans at maturity. The amounts of such
deposits are shown in total in the call reports.
This total is distributed by type of loan on the
basis of data reported in 1958 by a sample of
commercial banks. The estimate for each type
is then subtracted from the book value of
instalment loans of that type as reported by
banks.
Then too, some loans to individuals are not
strictly "consumer" types. Estimates of the
portions considered to be nonconsumer are
based primarily on a special survey of about
8,200 personal instalment loans made in June
1952, which obtained information on the purpose of "cash instalment loans to individuals."
According to information in that survey, about
15 per cent of the total amount of personal
instalment loans outstanding was for nonconsumer purposes. After the call report instructions relating to this item were modified for
use in the December 1955 call, the estimated
nonconsumer portion of personal instalment
loans was revised to 10 per cent.
In the June 1952 survey, banks were also
asked whether the category "retail automobile
instalment paper" included loans for the purchase of commercial vehicles, taxis, trucks, or
farm equipment and, if so, to indicate the
proportion of such loans to their total automobile paper. According to the replies, about
5 per cent of the amount of automobile paper
held by all commercial banks was nonconsumer. The automobile instalment total is
reduced by that amount.
Repair and modernization loans reported
by commercial banks are also adjusted to
eliminate nonconsumer loans. This adjustment is based on data available each year
from the Federal Housing Administration. In
recent years about 15 per cent of these loans
have been found to be on multifamily. dwell-

ings, farm dwellings, or business property
which, by definition, are nonconsumer; in
earlier years this proportion was somewhat
higher. An annual adjustment is made to
eliminate the nonconsumer portion of both insured and noninsured repair and modernization loans at commercial banks.
The accompanying table shows total "instalment loans to individuals" as reported by
all commercial banks in the United States for

and of credit for nonconsumer purposes.

for each type of loan, that is, purchased automobile paper, direct automobile loans, other
consumer goods paper, repair and modernization loans, and personal loans.
Banks in the reporting sample in each Federal Reserve district are divided into three
size classes on the basis of the amount of
consumer instalment credit outstanding on
each bank's books.6 Because the composition
of the sample may vary slightly from one
month to the next, owing to nonresponse or to
mergers among banks, data representing identical samples are summarized by size class each
month for the current and preceding months.
Collections for each type of loan at banks in
each size class are calculated by adding extensions of credit during the current month to
credit outstanding at the preceding month-end
and subtracting current month-end outstandings. Within each Federal Reserve district and
each size-of-bank class, two relationships are
then calculated for each type of credit: the
percentage change in credit outstanding, and
the ratio of collections during the month to
outstanding balances at the previous monthend.
For each type of loan within each Federal
Reserve district, weighted percentage changes
are computed using weights based on the distribution by size class of each type of paper
held by all banks in the district. The weighted
percentage changes in sample outstandings are
then applied to the credit outstanding at the
preceding month-end to obtain outstandings
at the close of the current month for all banks
in each district.
Collection ratios are weighted similarly by
type of credit and then are multiplied by the
corresponding outstanding balances at the preceding month-end to obtain an estimate of
repayments for each Federal Reserve district,
by type, for the current month. The month's
extensions of credit for each loan type are then

In 1953 certain changes were made in procedures and concepts. At that time instalment
credit totals for commercial banks were revised
to include data for institutions that had formerly been classified as industrial banks. It was
found to be impractical to continue that segregation because these banks were broadening
their activities and satisfactory criteria for
separate classification were not available.
Similarly, the series was revised to include
all holdings of home repair and modernization paper by commercial banks. Earlier
estimates had included only that portion insured under FHA Title I.
Current estimates. The monthly estimates
of consumer credit held by commercial banks
are based on sample data collected by the
Federal Reserve Banks. As of December 1963
the sample included 609 banks, accounting
for approximately one-half of the total consumer instalment credit held by all commercial
banks. Banks in the sample report their outstanding balances as of the month-end as well
as the volume of loans made during the month

Classification of sample data by size class within each
district was started in 1955 and is updated periodically.

derived by subtracting from outstanding credit
at the end of the current month the amount
outstanding at the previous month-end and
then adding estimated repayments during the
month.
These steps lead to monthly estimates of
instalment credit outstanding, extended, and
repaid—by type of credit—for each of the
12 Federal Reserve districts. The district
totals are then summed to produce national
estimates for all commercial banks.
Monthly estimates for the current period are
obtained by extrapolating from the previous
benchmark forward, using the procedure described above. Such estimates are later revised
to benchmark data, by district and type of
credit, using the straight-line method of adjustment described on pages 30-32.
Estimates of instalment credit at commercial
banks appear monthly in the Board of Governors' statistical release, G.19, "Consumer
Credit." A breakdown of these totals by Federal Reserve district appears in the G.I8 release, "Consumer Instalment Credit at Commercial Banks."
Monthly estimates for early years. For dates
prior to June 1943 the monthly estimates were
based on various sources of information. In
1940 and 1941, they were based on data for
a sample of banks that reported to the Consumer Credit Division of the American Bankers Association, and beginning in 1942 on a
sample collected by the Federal Reserve. Percentage changes shown by these sample data
were applied to the June 1943 benchmark.
Sales finance companies. Sales finance companies are engaged principally in purchasing
instalment paper that arises from retail sales
of passenger automobiles or other consumer
goods or from outlays for repair and modernization of residential properties. Many of these
companies have subsidiaries that engage in
direct lending to consumers, and some others
may be subsidiaries of large retailing or manufacturing corporations.
Some of the larger companies also are




heavily engaged in the financing or factoring
of business accounts receivable or in financing
sales of commercial, industrial, and farm
equipment. In general, companies are classified in the Federal Reserve series as sales
finance companies if more than half of their
outstanding loans are in the form of purchased
retail instalment contracts.
Benchmark data and estimates for early
years. In recent years, benchmark data for
the sales finance company series have been
obtained from periodic surveys of all finance
companies. The latest of the surveys was conducted as of June 1960, when reports were
obtained from about 4,500 companies accounting for an estimated 96 per cent of the aggregate outstanding consumer instalment credit
held by all finance companies.7 A similar survey was made in 1955, and another is scheduled for 1965.
Estimates of consumer loans by sales finance
companies for earlier years were derived from
three major sources of detailed information:
the 1939 Census of Sales Finance Companies;
the 1947 Survey of Sales Finance Companies
conducted by the Board of Governors; and
the 1950 Regulation W registration statement.
As may be seen from the tabulation on page
12, the 1947 Survey was the principal benchmark of these three. One reason was that
it provided greater detail; another was that the
reporting was on a consolidated basis. The
1939 Census and 1950 registration statement
were used only to adjust the levels of items for
which they provided information.
Breakdowns of the amount of paper purchased similar to the breakdowns of consumer
instalment paper outstanding were reported in
the 1939 Census and the 1947 Survey, but no
such information was called for in the 1950
registration statement.
Estimates of instalment credit outstanding
before 1939 were derived from sample data

Finance Companies, Mid-1960," Federal Reserve Bulletin
(October 1961), pp. 1140-60.

about 75 per cent of the other consumer goods
paper, and more than 80 per cent of the personal loans held by all sales finance companies. They also hold about 40 per cent of
the consumer repair and modernization loans
on the books of sales finance companies.
Estimates are based on the consolidated
operations of these companies, and no attempt
is made to separate the operations of small
loan and industrial loan subsidiaries. In many
cases such legal distinctions are not operating
distinctions, and the loan subsidiaries and discount subsidiaries operate as a single company
and often out of the same offices, where not
prohibited by State laws.
There is one major exception to the use of
company reports on a consolidated basis. In
the case of large retailing organizations that
operate sales finance subsidiaries, an attempt
is made to separate the retail credit operations
from the sales finance credit operations inasmuch as both parts of the organization may
hold consumer receivables and accept repayments. Paper held by such finance subsidiaries
is included in consumer instalment credit estimates for sales finance companies, while paper
retained by the parent retail organization is
classified as retail credit.
Reporting sales finance companies provide
monthly figures on amounts of consumer instalment credit outstanding and amounts of such
paper acquired during the month, by type of
credit, and also on the number of motor
vehicles financed during the month. In addition, the monthly reports cover certain categories of business credit services offered by
sales finance companies: retail financing of
commercial vehicles; wholesale automotive
financing ("floor planning"); financing of nonautomotive consumer goods at wholesale; and
business loans.
Figures for credit outstanding, extended, and
repaid are estimated separately for each major
type of credit and then combined to get totals
for the sales finance group. Monthly estimates
of credit outstanding are extrapolated from the

collected by the Russell Sage Foundation, the

covered retail automobile paper and other retail instalment paper. The amount of repair
and modernization loans and personal loans
held by sales finance companies in the 1920's
and early 1930's was negligible. All segments
were adjusted to findings of the 1939 Census,
and estimates of repair and modernization loans
were adjusted to information from the Federal
Housing Administration.
Current estimates. The current estimates of
consumer instalment credit at sales finance
companies are developed from reports received
each month from a sample of about 125 companies, including the major independent sales
finance companies and the principal subsidiaries of large retailing or manufacturing
corporations. Reporting companies account
for about 85 per cent of the automobile credit,

latest benchmarks on the basis of changes in
holdings of companies in the sample. The reporting companies are classified into four size
groups, with weights assigned to each group
on the basis of the relationship of the holdings
of reporting companies in each group to those
of all sales finance companies of similar size
on the most recent benchmark date. Repayments are calculated as follows: outstandings
at the end of the preceding month, plus extensions during the month, less outstandings at the
end of the current month, equal repayments
during the month.
Two adjustments are made to exclude nonconsumer loans. The first is applied to the
respondents' figures for retail automobile credit
outstanding. It is necessary because most of
these companies are not able to break down
total credit outstanding on motor vehicles so as
to distinguish outstandings on passenger vehicles from outstandings on other (commercial)
vehicles. These same companies, however, do
prepare such a breakdown of new paper acquired, and these data, combined with estimates
for the average original maturity of retail automotive paper on commercial vehicles, provide
a basis for estimating the nonconsumer component of the total.
The second adjustment eliminates the nonconsumer part of repair and modernization
loans made by sales finance companies. This
is essentially the same as the corresponding
adjustment for commercial banks, which was
described in an earlier section.
When new benchmark data for sales finance
companies become available, monthly estimates
for each type of credit are adjusted to the new
levels by use of the straight-line method described on pages 30-32.
Estimates of instalment credit at sales
finance companies appear monthly in the
Board's statistical release G.20, "Sales Finance
Companies," as well as in the Federal Reserve
Bulletin.
Supplementary information. The Board's
monthly release for sales finance companies




also includes three other types of information
that are derived from the reporting sample data
but that are not published in the Bulletin.
First, there are the estimates of business
credit outstanding at, and extended by, all
sales finance companies.
Second, there are estimates of the number
of motor vehicles financed by sales finance
companies, with a breakdown showing passenger and commercial vehicles separately,
both new and used. These series are constructed as follows: Inasmuch as companies
in the monthly sample report both volume of
automotive paper acquired and the number of
vehicles represented by this financing, it is
possible to derive the average amount of each
contract. This figure is then divided into the
estimated total amount of automotive credit
extended by sales finance companies during
the month, to yield the total number of units
financed by all sales finance companies.
The third series is credit sales of new
passenger cars as a per cent of total number
sold at retail. This series is developed in a
manner similar to the second series, described
above, except that the estimate of total number financed is made for passenger cars only,
and it covers all lender groups. This figure is
then divided by total unit sales of new cars
(including imports and fleets), as reported by
auto makers, to arrive at the percentage of
these sales financed through the use of consumer instalment credit.
Back data for each of these series are available beginning with 1947.
Other financial institutions.

"Other financial

institutions" are classified into five major categories: credit unions; consumer finance companies; mutual savings banks; savings and loan
associations; and all other financial firms engaged in the consumer loan business but not
included elsewhere in the series. Industrial
loan companies are included in the last named
category. At the end of 1963 the instalment
credit outstanding at institutions in these five
categories was as follows:

Savings and loan associations
All other financial institutions
(including industrial loan
companies)

(Millions of dollars)
5,622
4,590

943

Separate figures are published regularly for
consumer receivables held by credit unions and
consumer finance companies, but the figures
for the other three lender groups are shown as
a single total under the caption "other financial
institutions."
Credit unions. Current estimates of consumer credit held by credit unions are based
on monthly reports from the Bureau of Federal
Credit Unions in the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare. Prior to November
1964 these data were collected by the Federal
Reserve Banks from a sample of nearly 1,300
credit unions, about half of them Federallychartered and half State-chartered. The sample
accounted for more than 20 per cent of the consumer instalment credit held by these organizations.
The credit unions in the monthly sample report total outstanding loan balances and total
repayments; they do not report information
on loans classified by type. Estimates of total
outstandings for all credit unions are carried
forward each month on the basis of percentage
changes in credit outstanding as reported by
the sample. The ratio of repayments to receivables for the sample is then used to calculate
total repayments, and extensions are derived
as the residual. This method involves weighting of sample reports by Federal Reserve
district.
Figures for total outstandings are adjusted
to benchmark levels periodically, using the
straight-line method described on pages 30-32.
Benchmark data for both State- and Federally
chartered credit unions are collected by the
Bureau of Federal Credit Unions.
Before such revisions are undertaken, benchmark data are adjusted to the consumer credit




14

concept by excluding real estate mortgage
loans made by State-chartered credit unions. The
amounts excluded are based mainly on an
annual compilation made by the Bureau of
Federal Credit Unions, which requests data
from supervisory authorities in States that
permit credit unions to make such loans. An
additional allowance is made to cover these
loans in a few States that permit them but do
not report them separately. For the period
1939 through 1947, this adjustment for real
estate mortgage loans was based on information obtained from a questionnaire sent in
1948 to State banking authorities.
Estimates of total consumer instalment
credit held by credit unions are shown monthly
in the Federal Reserve Bulletin and on the
"Consumer Credit" statistical release (G.19).
Estimates of their holdings by type of credit
are not published separately but are included
with those for "other financial institutions."
Similarly, estimates of credit union extensions
and repayments are included in the category
"other financial institutions."
According to the 1950 Regulation W registration statement, about 63 per cent of all
loans outstanding at credit unions were personal loans, 26 per cent aiitomobile loans, 6
per cent other retail loans, and 5 per cent
repair and modernization loans. Later benchmark data, based on a 1956 survey made by
the Bureau of Federal Credit Unions, indicated
that the relative importance of automobile
loans made in 1956 was substantially higher
than in 1950, while personal loans had declined to about one-half of the total. Information from these two sources provided the
benchmarks needed for developing estimates
of outstandings by type of loan.
For dates prior to 1950, estimates of the
amounts of consumer instalment loans outstanding by type of loan were made on the
assumption that changes in the portfolios of
credit unions were proportionate to changes in
the portfolios of banks. In the 1940's the estimates were based on the distribution of con-

At the same time a somewhat broader definition of consumer finance companies was
adopted. This definition incorporated in the
series some companies formerly classified as
industrial loan companies and other lending
agencies. In the figures presented here, these
groups have been combined prior to 1950 in
order to avoid inconsistencies in classification.
Current estimates of credit outstanding, extended, and repaid for consumer finance
companies are based on reports from a
sample of 340 companies, which account for
about 60 per cent of the total instalment credit
held by such concerns. The sample companies
furnish reports on outstanding balances and
extensions during the month, by type of credit.
As in the commercial bank series, these sample
data provide the basis for estimating amounts
outstanding and collection ratios for all companies. When the collection ratios are applied
to the preceding month's outstandings, they
yield an estimate of current repayments. Total
extensions of credit are then calculated as a
residual. Estimates of amounts outstanding and
of extensions by type of credit are shown in the
Board's monthly statistical release G.22, "Consumer Credit at Consumer Finance Companies."
When new benchmarks become available,
the monthly figures are revised to the new
benchmark levels by use of the straight-line
method. The most recent benchmark data for
consumer finance companies are those provided by the 1955 and 1960 Surveys of
Finance Companies. The reported benchmark
data for repair and modernization loans included some nonconsumer loans. The data
have been adjusted to exclude these loans by
use of the ratios reported for commercial
banks.
The Regulation W registration statement
provided benchmark information for 1950 for
the total amount of credit outstanding at consumer finance companies by type of loan. Yearend estimates for the period 1939-50 were
extrapolated on the basis of percentage changes

sumer loans at country member banks on call
dates. Even though this procedure has limitations, these estimates were used to complete
the "type" breakdown of the consumer credit
series as a whole, since the amounts involved
were small relative to the total credit outstanding.
The repair and modernization component
is adjusted to exclude nonconsumer loans on
the same basis as previously described for
commercial banks. The amount of nonconsumer paper in other components is negligible.
Estimates of credit union holdings of consumer instalment credit during the 1920's and
1930's from the Russell Sage Foundation (Rolf
Nugent), the National Bureau of Economic
Research, and the Department of Commerce
were comparable with these later estimates
except for the adjustment to exclude real estate
loans. Throughout most of the period virtually
all loans were personal instalment loans, with
a small amount of lending for automobile purchases and for home repair and modernization
beginning in the mid-1930's.
Estimates of monthly repayments on instalment loans by type of loan are derived through
the use of collection ratios at commercial
banks.
Consumer finance companies. Estimates for
consumer finance companies cover the consolidated consumer lending operations of companies that have one-half or more of their
consumer receivables in loans made under
effective State small loan laws. Consequently,
the bulk of the credit they extend is in the
form of direct personal loans to consumers.
Information in the 1950 Regulation W registration statement indicated the need for some
revision in the series as constructed at that
time. The statements revealed that a number
of institutions had classified themselves as small
loan companies although more than one-half
of their receivables were purchased paper on
automobiles or other consumer goods. Hence,
it was necessary to reclassify them as sales
finance companies.




15

standing at a sample of mutual savings banks
have been collected and published by the
National Association of Mutual Savings Banks.
This item consists largely of loans to individuals, and percentage changes in it were applied to the June and December figures for
consumer loans, described above, to obtain
monthly estimates.
Prior to June 1947 no monthly information
was available, and consumer loans outstanding
at mutual savings banks were estimated for
the months between June and December dates
on the basis of the changes in consumer loans
at commercial banks, with the monthly estimates adjusted to benchmarks by the straightline method.
The estimates of total credit outstanding are
distributed by type of credit on the basis of
benchmark information from periodic call report data (since June 1961) and from the
1950 registration statement. Proportions for
earlier dates were extrapolated, employing
commercial bank data in the same way as described earlier for credit unions. The singlepayment loan category and the repair and
modernization component are adjusted to exclude nonconsumer loans, using the same percentages that are used for commercial banks.
Estimates of monthly repayments of instalment loans assume that the collection ratios
for each type of credit are the same for mutual
savings banks as for commercial banks. The
commercial bank ratios are applied to balances
at mutual savings banks at the end of the preceding month. Extensions are then calculated
as the residual.
Savings and loan associations. In addition
to their primary activity, which is to make real
estate mortgage loans, savings and loan associations make two types of loans that fall in
the consumer credit category: (1) repair and
modernization loans and (2) loans to stockholders against their share accounts in the
association. Repair and modernization loans
are a part of the instalment loan category.
Share loans, however, are included in the

in loans by type as shown by the State supervisory reports for States having small loan laws.
Monthly estimates for each year of the decade ending September 1950 were obtained
by applying to the preceding year-end estimate
(as adjusted to the 1950 benchmark) the
month-to-month percentage changes for the
particular year as indicated by the reporting
sample of consumer finance companies. The
monthly estimates were then adjusted to the
year-end estimate by the straight-line method.
Changes in the types of loans held by consumer finance companies were assumed to be
similar to those reported by commercial banks
in the 1940-45 period and to those for industrial loan companies in 1946-50.
Year-end estimates of personal instalment
loans outstanding at consumer finance companies for the period before 1939 are those
prepared by Rolf Nugent. These estimates
account for virtually all of the consumer credit
held by State-regulated companies. These companies also engaged in a small amount of
lending for the purchase of automobiles and
major household durable goods and for home
repair in the years immediately before World
War II.
Mutual savings banks. Benchmark information on consumer credit outstanding at mutual
savings banks became available from regular
reports of condition made twice each year to
bank supervisory agencies effective with data
for June 1957. Before that, the item "other
loans to individuals" outstanding at such institutions was available from the all-bank series
for June and December dates beginning with
1947 and for June dates 1943-46. Data for
loans other than mortgage loans were reported
for insured mutual savings banks for June and
December back to 1939, and these were used
with all-bank data in estimating consumer loans
at all mutual savings banks for December dates
in 1943-46 and for June and December dates
back to December 1939.
Beginning with June 1947, monthly data on
total loans other than mortgage loans out-




16

single-payment loan category of noninstalment
credit under "other financial institutions."
The Federal Home Loan Bank Board has
made available for year-end dates back to 1939
information on (1) the total amount of loans
not secured by first mortgages held by all savings and loan associations and (2) the amount
held by associations that are members of the
Federal Home Loan Bank System (that is,
Federally chartered associations). The latter
total is broken down between secured (share)
and unsecured (repair and modernization)
loans.
To obtain totals for repair and modernization loans for all associations, it is necessary
to estimate the amounts of these loans held
by nonmember associations. The distribution
of total loans at member savings and loan
associations according to secured or unsecured
types is used to estimate the breakdown for
nonmember associations. The totals for repair and modernization loans are then adjusted to exclude nonconsumer loans by
applying the same percentages used to adjust
such loans held by commercial banks.
Monthly figures for repair and modernization loans at all savings and loan associations
between benchmarks are estimated on the basis
of the relationship to such loans at commercial
banks on the most recent benchmark date.
These monthly estimates subsequently are adjusted to the end-of-year benchmarks by
straight-line interpolation.
Monthly repayments of repair and modernization loans are estimated by using the collection ratio for such loans at commercial banks,
and extensions are calculated as a residual.
Monthly estimates subsequently are adjusted
to end-of-year data on outstanding credit by
the straight-line method.
The benchmark estimates for repair and
modernization loans are subtracted from total
nonmortgage loans in order to derive benchmark estimates for share loans outstanding.
Monthly estimates of share loans at savings
and loan associations are extrapolated from




these benchmarks on the basis of their relationship to single-payment loans at commercial
banks. The estimates are adjusted to end-ofyear benchmarks by the straight-line method.
Industrial loan companies and other lending
agencies. Monthly estimates of instalment
credit outstanding at industrial loan companies
and other lending agencies are based on reports from a sample of about 60 companies
accounting for approximately 10 per cent of
the total credit held by these companies. They
report their outstanding balances and extensions during the month, by type of loan.
As in the preparation of estimates for most
other types of lenders, the percentage change
during a month in sample outstandings is applied to the preceding month-end balance to
obtain an estimate of outstanding credit by
type for the current month-end. Collection
ratios for the sample group are applied to universe outstandings to estimate repayments, and
extensions are calculated as the residual. The
method used involves weighting of sample reports by Federal Reserve district. When new
benchmarks become available, the monthly
figures are adjusted to the new levels. All
estimates for repair and modernization loans
are adjusted to exclude the nonconsumer portion in the same manner as for commercial
banks.
Benchmark data for this category of lenders for recent years were obtained in the
Surveys of Finance Companies for 1955
and 1960. In the 1960 Survey, reports were
returned by approximately 1,600 industrial
loan companies, cooperative credit associations, and loan funds operated by churches,
fraternal orders, or others. The Regulation W
registration statement for the end of September 1950 provided the most complete benchmark for these institutions in earlier years.
For the period December 1939 through
September 1950, separate monthly estimates
were made for industrial loan companies and
for all other lenders. These monthly estimates,
described below, were then combined and the

17

totals were adjusted to the 1950 registration
statement figures by the straight-line method.
For industrial loan companies the monthly estimates for the December 1939-September 1950
period were made by applying the monthly
percentage changes shown by the reporting
sample to an estimate for the end of 1944 derived from a special Federal Reserve survey.
Year-end estimates before 1939 were derived
from the Nugent (Russell Sage Foundation)
estimates for industrial banking companies and
from information for States in which industrial
loan companies operated. The other component of Nugent's series, industrial banks, is included in the commercial bank estimates for
those years.
For the other lenders monthly estimates for
the period December 1939 through September
1950 were benchmarked on an estimate for
the end of 1939 prepared by the Russell Sage
Foundation. These monthly estimates were
obtained by applying to the end-of-1939 figure
one-half of the percentage change shown by
the sample of consumer finance companies,
since over that period the amount of credit
held by such companies had increased about
twice as rapidly as for the group of miscellaneous lenders. Year-end estimates prepared
by the Russell Sage Foundation were used also
for the period prior to 1939.
Distributions by type of loan for industrial
loan and consumer finance companies were
based on data from the 1950 registration statement and carried through the period 1944-51,
using changes for each type of loan reported
by the industrial loan company sample. Prior
to 1944, the distributions were based on data
for commercial banks.

arising from sales of automobiles and other
major durable goods to consumers. Only that
part of the instalment paper that retailers own
and carry on their books as customer accounts
is included in the estimates for retail outlets.
The remainder is included in estimates for the
banks, sales finance companies, or other institutions that purchase the paper. Noninstalment (charge-account) credit arising from retail sales is nearly always carried on the retailers' books.
General estimating methods.

RETAIL OUTLETS

Retail outlets hold nearly one-eighth of consumers' instalment receivables. In addition,
they originate and then sell to financial institutions a large part of the instalment paper




Estimates

of

consumer instalment credit held by retail outlets are based largely on data from monthly
reporting samples. Those reporting currently
to the Federal Reserve System—department
stores, furniture stores, household appliance
stores, and four large mail-order companies—
hold around two-thirds of all consumer instalment credit outstanding at retail establishments.
Estimates for these kinds of business are customarily adjusted to year-end benchmarks for
instalment accounts receivable as compiled by
the Bureau of the Census in its Retail Trade
Survey.
Outstanding credit at the remaining kinds
of business, for which the Federal Reserve
System does not collect monthly sample data,
are estimated by kind of business between
benchmark dates and extrapolated from the
latest year-end benchmark by using ratios of
receivables to weighted sales derived from the
Bureau of the Census Survey data. These estimates, published monthly in the Federal Reserve Bulletin and in the "Consumer Credit"
release (G.19), are shown for department
stores and mail-order companies combined,
and separately for furniture stores, household
appliance stores, automobile dealers, and "all
other" retailers.
It is necessary to make two adjustments in
the figures that the Bureau of the Census reports for retail receivables so that they will conform to the consumer credit concept. The first
is to add an estimate for the amount of consumer credit arising from retail sales made at

18

wholesale outlets. The second is to deduct nonconsumer credit owed to retail outlets. Both are
percentage adjustments derived from detailed
data for credit sales and for accounts receivable
which were collected in the Census of Business
in 1939 and 1948. In addition, the second
adjustment utilized the proportion of retail commodity sales made to consumers, as estimated
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in its inputoutput studies.
Wholesale adjustment.
The estimated
amounts added to the series to cover consumer
credit extended by wholesalers have been adjusted to Census benchmarks for both 1939
and 1948. In the 1948 Census of Business for
Wholesale Trade, data were collected for
wholesale sales by line of trade and by class
of customer, with separate totals for a category defined as "sales to household consumers,
individual users, and to farmers." Sales in
this category were concentrated in a relatively
few wholesale firms that did a large retail
business and used credit practices similar to
those of competitive retailers. Two types of
wholesale outlets—"merchant wholesalers" and
"manufacturers' sales branches (with stocks)"
—included lines in which a substantial proportion of total sales were to consumers.
The estimates of credit sales and credit receivables of the household consumer group in
each of those trade lines were made as follows:
1. The distribution of sales by type of transaction (credit or cash) was made on the basis
of the distribution in comparable retail trade
lines as indicated by the Census of Retail
Trade.
2. Year-end estimates of instalment and
charge accounts receivable were estimated by
applying to the estimates of instalment sales
and charge sales, respectively, the ratios of instalment receivables to sales and of charge
receivables to sales, at retail stores in comparable trade lines.
Available information indicated that virtually all of the wholesale credit to consumers




was on a charge-account basis, and this was
the assumption used for the purpose of adjusting estimates to data from the 1939 Census.
Nonconsumer
adjustment. The nonconsumer adjustment in the 1939 Retail Census
data eliminated from both the charge and the
instalment sectors those kinds of business that
were predominantly nonconsumer: lumber and
building material dealers; plumbing, paint, and
electrical supply stores; farm equipment dealers; feed, farm, and garden supply stores; and
office and store machinery and equipment
dealers. This adjustment assumed that the
amount of consumer receivables held by the
kinds of business excluded were roughly equal
to the nonconsumer receivables of those trade
lines that were retained.
The adjustment in the 1948 Retail Census
data, on the other hand, eliminated the nonconsumer portion of the credit held by each
kind of business; for this purpose, ratios derived in an input-output study of the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, mentioned earlier, were used.
Estimates of nonconsumer instalment and
charge-account receivables for each trade line
were derived from nonconsumer sales (estimated as mentioned earlier) by using ratios
of receivables to sales based on the Census
for Wholesale Trade and the Census for Retail
Trade. Available sources indicated that in most
cases the retail ratio was not representative of
the relationship between nonconsumer receivables and nonconsumer sales. Hence it was
necessary to use the wholesale ratio. The particular wholesale ratio to be used was selected
on the basis of the distribution of nonconsumer
sales by commodities. If the nonconsumer sales
of a given kind of retail business were largely
in one commodity line, a single appropriate
wholesale ratio for that line was used. But if
these sales were distributed among several commodities, a weighted average of the several
appropriate wholesale ratios was employed.
In a few kinds of retail business nearly all
of the sales were to nonconsumers, with the
result that the retail ratio of receivables to

19

sales was heavily weighted by the nonconsumer transactions. Wholesale ratios for these
lines of business appeared to differ from the
retail relationships so much as to be inappropriate for use with the reported retail receivables. In such cases retail relationships were
used. This was true of the adjustments for
lumber dealers, business machine dealers, and
gasoline stations.
Through a spot check it was found that,
except at automotive and farm machinery
dealers, nonconsumer credit sales were on a
charge-account rather than an instalment basis.
Therefore, it was not necessary to make nonconsumer adjustments for most of the instalment components.
Retail instalment credit by holder. For estimating purposes, instalment credit held by
retailers is divided into five categories: department stores, mail-order companies, furniture
stores, household appliance stores, and "all
other" retail stores.
Department stores. For nearly three decades
department store accounts receivable have been
reported to the Federal Reserve System by a
comprehensive sample of stores. The current
monthly estimates of consumer credit outstanding are based on reports from about 500 stores.
These stores are representative of all 12 Federal Reserve districts. Approximately 400
stores report both charge and instalment outstandings and collections, while the remainder
report these figures only for charge accounts.
The sample represents more than two-thirds of
the national total for each type of credit outstanding. Department store outlets of the large
mail-order companies are not included in this
sample, but are incorporated regularly in consolidated reports from such companies.
Each Federal Reserve district reports
monthly totals for instalment and charge accounts receivable and collections of respondent
stores. These data are combined into national
totals weighted by Federal Reserve district.
From the totals for the nation as a whole,
these two figures are calculated: (1) the per-




centage change for the month in accounts
receivable and (2) the ratio of collections
during the month to receivables at the end of
the preceding month. (Weights based on 1948
Census data are up-dated regularly to reflect
changes in the relative importance of each
Federal Reserve district in the total. ) The
percentage change so derived each month is
applied to the estimate for the preceding month
to obtain the estimate of accounts receivable
at the end of the current month. Weighted
collection ratios are applied to the amount outstanding for the preceding month to give an
estimate of repayments. Extensions for the
current month are then derived by subtracting
from outstanding credit at the end of the current month the total outstanding at the end of
the preceding month and then adding current
repayments.
Estimates have been adjusted to Census
findings for 1939 and 1948 and in the later
years compared with the results of the Census
annual survey. Since the beginning of the
Census survey program, which the Board
helped to initiate in the early 1950's, the Federal Reserve estimates of accounts receivable
and those from the Census surveys have corresponded so closely that no adjustment has
seemed necessary.
For the 193O's and 1940's the department
store data are adjusted to findings of the
annual Retail Credit Survey conducted by the
Department of Commerce until 1941 and then
by the Federal Reserve through 1951. For the
earlier years of this period as well as for most
of the 1920's, total accounts receivable at
department stores were available from Rolf
Nugent's estimates, which were based on
returns from a national sample of department stores. Since the Nugent estimates
covered all general merchandise stores, they
were considerably higher than the combined
charge-account and instalment estimates for
department stores in years when the series
overlapped, but the year-to-year movements
in the two corresponded closely. Therefore,

20

percentage changes in the Nugent series were
used to carry estimates of total department
store receivables back to 1923. Percentage
changes were used also to develop figures for
total receivables in the 1919-22 period, but
these were based on a more limited coverage.
The instalment portion of accounts receivable at department stores had been estimated
for the years 1925-40 by Duncan Holthausen
using data from the Federal Reserve together
with information from the Department of
Commerce, the National Bureau of Economic
Research, and retail trade associations. During 1928 and 1929, the earliest years for
which separate figures for both charge and
instalment accounts receivable were available,
charge accounts constituted the bulk of the
total. The proportion of total credit transacted on an instalment basis was extremely
small at that time, but it was increasing. The
estimated division of receivables by type for
the period up to 1928 took into account both
the upward trend in instalment credit and the
effects of changing economic conditions on
the use of each type of credit.
After the division of accounts receivable between charge and instalment had been made,
the year-to-year changes in estimated charge
accounts receivable were compared with
changes in early Federal Reserve estimates of
department store sales. A high degree of
correlation existed between the two. Comparison with fragmentary information for that
period indicates that the estimating error is
probably small.
Mall-order companies Although charge accounts receivable at mail-order companies are
reported separately only for benchmark dates,
the instalment balances and collections on these
balances have been reported monthly since
1929 by the four large companies. These
instalment balances account for virtually all
of the mail-order company receivables.
Currently totals for amounts outstanding and
collected are reported separately by these companies for each type of holder; that is, separate




21

figures are shown for the amount held by the
parent company, that sold to banks, and that
transferred to sales finance companies, including subsidiaries. These data are not shown
separately in the materials published by the
Board but are combined with corresponding
estimates for department stores, banks, and
finance companies, respectively. Extensions for
each type of holder are derived by adding current repayments to the change in outstandings
recorded during the current month.
Historically figures for instalment credit outstanding at mail-order companies are available from several sources. Rolf Nugent published year-end figures for the years 1923-37
together with percentage changes for earlier
years. Instalment receivables also have been included in Moody's Industrial Manual; however, these figures are less meaningful because
for several years in the early 1920's they included such items as real estate mortgage loans
and employee loans in reported totals for
customer accounts receivable.
Furniture stores. Current monthly estimates
of accounts receivable at furniture stores are
based on reports of nearly 450 stores throughout the United States, which provide figures
on both instalment and charge accounts outstanding and collected. Reporting stores account for approximately one-eighth of all instalment accounts receivable held by stores
of this type.
Instalment credit outstanding at all furniture
stores is estimated as follows: percentage
changes in the sample data by Federal Reserve
districts are combined into a weighted percentage change for the United States. The weights
used were derived from a special Census tabulation by Federal Reserve districts as of the
end of 1948. The percentage change is applied to the preceding figure for instalment
credit. Then for sample stores, district ratios
of collections during the month to accounts
receivable at the end of the preceding month
are combined similarly to obtain a weighted
total ratio for collections. An estimate of re-

payments is obtained by applying this weighted
collection ratio to the estimated total outstanding at the preceding month-end. Extensions
for the current month are then derived by subtracting from outstanding credit at the end of
the current month the preceding month's outstanding credit and then adding repayments
for the current month.
Estimates of instalment credit outstanding
are adjusted regularly to end-of-year figures
from the Census Survey of Retail Trade. Other
benchmark data for the monthly furniture store
series were provided by the 1939 Census and
by the Retail Credit Survey through 1951.8
The Survey respondents held about one-fourth
of the instalment receivables of all furniture
stores.
A small adjustment is made in the benchmark for consumer credit arising from instalment sales to consumers by wholesalers. Nonconsumer transactions on instalment credit at
retail furniture stores are too small to require
adjustment.
The series as constructed goes back to
December 1939 on a monthly basis. The yearend estimates for 1919-38 are extrapolations
based on Rolf Nugent's aggregates for 1923-38
and his estimates of annual percentage changes
for prior years.
The instalment component of total credit at
furniture stores was estimated for 1926-38
using Retail Credit Survey data as adjusted
(and extended back from 1928 to 1926)
jointly by the Department of Commerce
and the National Bureau of Economic Research.9 These estimates include paper sold as
well as that retained by the dealer, but this
seems of little consequence since data from
the Retail Credit Survey and from the Census,
as well as information from sales finance company reports covering a long period, indicate

that furniture stores sold little paper to financial institutions.
For 1919-25 instalment credit was estimated
as a percentage of total credit, the trend in
this percentage being extrapolated back from
1926-38 with the aid of Seligman's separate
figures for instalment and charge credit at furniture stores in 192310 and Ayres' 1923 and 1925
totals for the instalment component.11
Charge-account credit was then estimated
as a residual for this 1919-38 period, the results being checked against the movement
shown by Raymond Goldsmith's estimates of
expenditures of nonfarm individuals for household goods.12
Household appliance stores. Estimates of
instalment accounts receivable and collections
of household appliance stores are based on
monthly reports of some 50 stores representing about 10 per cent of all instalment accounts receivable in this category. Benchmark
data for this series, as for furniture stores, are
derived from Census data and from Retail
Credit Surveys. In most of the Survey years
some 2,000 household appliance stores reported, providing instalment receivables coverage of about 25 per cent of the national total.
Current monthly estimates are derived by
applying to the preceding month-end estimate
for credit outstanding a weighted percentage
change figure. As in the furniture stores series,
percentage changes in the sample data by Federal Reserve district are weighted to obtain a
national figure. Monthly collection ratios (instalment collections as a percentage of the
end of preceding month's instalment receivables) for the sample are applied to estimated
total instalment accounts receivable to obtain
monthly aggregates for collections. Estimates
of credit extended are derived by subtracting

stores; automobile tire and accessory stores;
gasoline service stations; general merchandise
stores; and all other retailers. Estimates of
the amount outstanding for these two groupings (with no breakdown for the components
of "other retail outlets") are published monthly
in the Federal Reserve Bulletin and on the
"Consumer Credit" release (G.19). Estimates
for credit held by automobile dealers are based
on end-of-month estimates of the Bureau of
the Census for dealer-held receivables. For
the most recent months, estimates are based
on the changes in automobile paper outstanding at financial institutions; later they are adjusted to the Census data. For the period before 1961 a ratio-to-weighted-sales method was
used for estimating outstandings between
benchmark dates; this method is described
below.
Credit extended by automobile dealers is
estimated by reference to the amounts of
credit they hold, using the month-to-month
relationships of automobile credit extended to
that held by banks, finance companies, and
other nonretail groups. Repayments are computed by subtracting outstanding credit at the
end of the current month from the amount
outstanding at the preceding month-end and
then adding current extensions. For the 1930's
and 1940's the annual Retail Credit Survey
provided benchmark information for automobile dealers.
Current benchmark data for each of the remaining major types of retail instalment credit,
which make up the "other retail outlet" group,
are derived from year-end Census figures for
instalment accounts receivable. These have
been interpolated and extrapolated by indicator series based on lagged sales. The sales data
used are those reported by the Census Bureau
each month. The lag patterns are of the
form :
iSo , ( n - 1)S,

from outstanding credit at the end of the current month the preceding month's outstanding
credit and then adding repayments for the
current month. The current monthly series for
appliance stores is adjusted by the straight-line
method to Census data for year-end instalment
accounts receivable.
The estimates of instalment accounts receivable for years prior to 1940 were derived in
part from data in the Retail Credit Survey and
in part from Nugent's series for utility-operated and other household equipment stores.
This distinction by type of store was not made
in estimates from 1939 forward, or in estimates
for earlier years made by Ayres, Seligman, and
the National Bureau of Economic Research,
or in any of the Retail Credit Survey data. The
method of estimation for the period before
1940 was the same as that described for furniture stores.
In estimating consumer instalment credit
for the 1930's and 1940's, the National Bureau
of Economic Research and the Department of
Commerce included in the estimated holdings
of appliance dealers both the amounts held by
dealers and the amounts sold to financial
institutions. Household appliance stores generally sell a larger proportion of their paper to
financial institutions than do other kinds of
nonautomotive retailers. The Retail Credit
Survey for several years and, for some overlapping and earlier years, Nugent's estimates
of intermediary financing provided data for
allocating to financial institutions that portion
of the paper that appliance stores had originated and then sold.
All other retail stores. The Federal Reserve
does not collect monthly data for instalment
credit held by the remaining kinds of retail
stores. However, it does prepare monthly estimates for automobile dealers, even though they
customarily hold only a small fraction of the
instalment paper they originate, and for "other
retail outlets," a group that represents seven

successively 5,4,3,2, and 1, beginning with the
most recent month.
The values of n used for each line of business are those found empirically to minimize
the error in movement of the indicator series
from one benchmark to the next.
Sources for benchmark data prior to 1940
are the same as those for household appliance
stores.
Extensions and repayments for these retailers
have not been reported monthly to either the
Bureau of the Census or the Federal Reserve.
Census data for 1939 and 1948 permitted
derivation of an average collection ratio for
each component. A relationship of these ratios
to the collection pattern shown by the Federal
Reserve sample of department stores was
established for each of the seven groups. These
relationships, adjusted from time to time for
differences in certain credit patterns, have been
used with the currently reported department
store data to estimate repayments relative to
outstandings and to derive instalment extensions of the "all other retail" group.

Where
Reco is the indicator of receivables at the end
of the given month,
n is the average number of full months given
buyers to pay for credit purchases in the particular line of business, and
S is sales during the month.
A more concise expression of this formula is:
Reco = / (-i
where S_i is sales in ith month preceding period.
For example, if a dealer's instalment contracts averaged 5 months to maturity (assumed
to be paid exactly on schedule), his receivables
for any particular month would be composed
of all of the most recent month's instalment
credit granted, four-fifths of the amount for
the previous month, three-fifths for the second
previous month, and so forth. This suggests
that, in this case, the most reasonable relationship between receivables and sales would be
one that made the receivables of any given
month a function of the previous 5 months'
sales (the number of months equal to average

ESTIMATES OF NONINSTALMENT CREDIT
collected by the Federal Reserve Banks. As
of June 1963 the sample included about 375
banks, accounting for approximately onefourth of all single-payment loans held by
commercial banks.
Monthly estimates of single-payment loans
are adjusted to benchmark totals by the
straight-line method. These benchmarks—like
those for bank-held instalment credit—are obtained from the regular reports of condition
made to supervisory agencies by all commercial banks.
According to a 1952 survey covering about
8,700 such loans in 180 commercial banks,
about one-half of the volume of all singlepayment loans made by commercial banks to
individuals are for nonconsumer purposes.

Consumer noninstalment credit represents
obligations of consumers scheduled to be retired in a single payment. This ordinarily takes
the form of open-account transactions, with
payment due upon billing.
Noninstalment credit is divided into three
classes: single-payment loans, charge accounts,
and service credit. Single-payment loans are
held primarily by commercial banks, while
charge accounts and service credit are owed
to a variety of establishments and professional
practitioners.
SINGLE-PAYMENT LOANS

Monthly estimates of single-payment loans at
commercial banks are based on sample data




24

Hence, in order to develop benchmark data
for consumer single-payment loans, total holdings of such loans as reported semiannually by
commercial banks are reduced by that percentage.
Single-payment loans also are held by
mutual savings banks, savings and loan associations (share loans), and pawnbrokers. In
the noninstalment credit series their holdings
are grouped under the label, "other financial
institutions." Sources of data and estimating
methods for single-payment loans at mutual
savings banks and savings and loan associations are described earlier in the sections dealing with instalment credit at those institutions.
For pawnbrokers, monthly values are
straight-line interpolations between year-end
figures, based on original estimates made by
Rolf Nugent for the years 1923 through
1937.1 { These estimates cover all of the credit
extended by pawnbrokers, but do not include
forfeited pledges. The Nugent estimates are
brought forward on the basis of annual information available from supervisory authorities of four States (Indiana, New Jersey, Oregon, and Pennsylvania) and published reports
of some large companies in other States. Currently, these sources cover about 25 per cent
of the estimated total credit outstanding at
pawnshops included in the single-payment loan
series.

nationwide sample of about 500 stores accounting for nearly 90 per cent of all such credit.
Month-end estimates are prepared from
weighted Federal Reserve district totals in the
same manner as the estimates of instalment
accounts receivable at these stores.
Bureau of the Census data indicate that the
small amount of charge-account credit outstanding at mail-order companies moves in
about the same way as such credit at department stores. Since separate figures for charge
accounts of mail-order companies are not
available monthly, the totals for department
stores and mail-order companies combined are
interpolated between benchmark dates by use
of the monthly reports of charge accounts receivable at department stores. Sources are the
same as those described in the discussion of
instalment accounts receivable at department
stores.
Estimates of charge accounts receivable were
adjusted by the straight-line method to Bureau
of the Census findings by Federal Reserve district for 1939 and 1948. Estimated national
totals for later years have been compared with
year-end figures from the Census Surveys of
Retail Trade, but no adjustment has been
necessary. For earlier years benchmark data
were provided by Rolf Nugent's estimates and
by Retail Credit Surveys.
Other retail outlets. For estimating charge
accounts outstanding, retail outlets other than
department stores and mail-order houses are
divided into eleven groups: other general merchandise stores; furniture stores; household appliance stores; jewelry stores; the hardwarelumber group; the apparel group; the food
group; drug and proprietary stores; automobile tire and accessory stores; gasoline service
stations; and all other retail stores.
Furniture stores. Charge accounts of furniture stores are reported monthly to the various
Federal Reserve Banks. The district figures
are combined into a weighted U. S. total. These
data have been adjusted to Census findings for
1939 and 1948 and, insofar as necessary, to

eludes estimates for the amount outstanding on
general credit cards, that is, those covering
travel, dining, and miscellaneous expenses.
Estimates of gasoline and fuel oil credit in
this sector exclude any amounts outstanding at
establishments classified as retail trade. The
amounts included in the credit-card estimates
cover only the consumer portion, which for
most of the components accounts for one-fifth
or less of the total amount owed by all holders
of these cards.
Consumer use of credit cards has grown
rapidly since World War II. Benchmark data
based on a 1958 survey of all companies extending credit of this type provided a basis for
carrying the series back to 1948. Although
gasoline credit cards were in limited use before the war, the amount of such credit outstanding was negligible, and no attempt has
been made to prepare estimates for those years.
Currently, the series is based on monthly
reports of receivables from a sample of oil
companies selected by size of 1958 customer
receivables to be representative of gasoline
credit card and fuel oil credit used by consumers. Month-to-month percentage changes
derived from sample data are weighted in
three size groups to give a monthly percentage
change, which is then applied to the estimated
total outstanding balance at the end of the
preceding month to obtain an estimated total
of outstandings at the end of the current month.
Monthly or quarterly reports from the major
companies in the general credit-card field provide a basis for estimating that portion of the
total.
Nonconsumer adjustments for all credit-card
components are based on percentages of the
total outstanding balances. These percentages
are derived from estimates provided by the
individual respondents.

year-end estimates by the Bureau of the
Census. Retail Credit Surveys provided benchmark data for the 1930's and a basis for estimating a split in the Nugent figures for earlier
years. (See section describing estimates of instalment receivables at furniture stores.)
Other. Data on charge accounts receivable
have not been collected by the Federal Reserve
for the remaining kinds of business during most
of the period covered by the consumer credit
series. For the years 1953-58, the Bureau of
the Census made only year-end estimates, but
since then it has made month-end estimates for
major kinds of business; however, these have
not been available in time for use in the current consumer credit aggregates.
The Bureau's year-end estimates, adjusted to
include consumer credit extended by wholesalers and to exclude nonconsumer credit extended by retailers, are used as benchmark
data. Monthly estimates between benchmarks
are interpolations based on weighted sales.14
Errors accumulated during a 12-month period
through use of this method generally have been
extremely small.
Prior to 1953 the series has been adjusted
to the benchmark estimates provided in the
Censuses of 1939 and 1948, the Retail Credit
Surveys made by the Department of Commerce
or by the Federal Reserve in the 1930's and
1940's, and Rolf Nugent's estimates of total
retail receivables in the 1920's and early 1930's
when all or nearly all credit transactions at
most kinds of business were on a charge-account basis.
Credit cards. The credit-card category consists primarily of oil-company receivables,
arising from consumers' use of gasoline credit
cards and purchases of fuel oil. It also in14
Tests made on series for which both sales and charge
accounts receivable were available monthly showed that the
smallest average difference between reported receivables and
the movement described by a weighted sales series occurred
with a 3-month weighting system. This is in general agreement with information available on the average period of
time elapsing between purchases on and payment of charge
accounts. Differences by kind of business appeared to be
small; consequently, the 3-month weighting pattern was adopted
for all remaining retail groups.




SERVICE CREDIT
Service credit is the amount owed by individuals to professional practitioners and service
establishments. Estimates are made for all

26

service areas in which any appreciable amount
of consumer credit is known to exist. The
quality of some of the component estimates is
below the standards maintained in other segments of the series, but these estimates are included in order to give the most complete
coverage possible for total consumer credit.
It appears that the estimates understate the
amount of credit in the service area.
The largest component of this type of credit
is the amount owed to hospitals, doctors, and
other medical practitioners.15 Another substantial component of service credit is that
owed to public utilities, which is measured after
deduction of deposits and prepayments. The
remainder represents amounts owed for a
variety of personal services such as cleaning
and dyeing, education, and recreation.
Services performed by retailers and financial
institutions are covered in other segments of
the consumer credit series and are excluded
from estimates of service credit. Even though
various other categories of service, such as that
provided by rental housing, account for a
large part of all consumption expenditures,
they too are excluded, either because the components fall outside the consumer credit concept or because the amount of credit involved
is negligible.
Medical care. Monthly estimates of service
credit owed by consumers to doctors, dentists,
and hospitals between benchmark dates are
trend projections based on data for absenteeism in industry as estimated over several years
by the Public Health Service.
For the period from 1952 through 1959,
annual estimates for medical debt as of the
end of January were provided by the Survey
of Consumer Finances, which was made for
the Federal Reserve by the Survey Research
Center of the University of Michigan. Figures
for subsequent years are based on the relationship of these estimates to the Department of

Commerce annual totals of consumption expenditures for medical care. The projected
ratio is applied to each year's expenditure estimate as it becomes available.
Estimates for the 1940's were extrapolated
on the basis of the relationship that existed in
the 1952-59 period. These estimates were
linked to Rolf Nugent's year-end estimates of
credit outstanding for services of private practitioners and hospitals to yield estimates for
the two decades prior to World War II.
Public utilities. The public utility segment
includes consumer credit outstanding for gas,
electricity, water, and residential telephones.
Monthly estimates for the period beginning
with 1950 are based on the following types of
reported data. (1) End-of-month figures for
indebtedness on Bell System residential telephones, net of advance billings and customers'
deposits, are supplied by the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. The series includes amounts owed on business toll calls
charged to residential telephones, but excludes
personal toll calls charged to business telephones. Data are not available to permit adjustment for these factors. (2) Semiannual
estimates of amounts outstanding for electric
and gas utilities are supplied by the Edison
Electric Institute and the American Gas Association. These estimates are net of deposits;
and they are adjusted to exclude prepayments
on budget fuel accounts, since the prepayments
involve no consumer credit. Monthly data between benchmark dates are interpolated
through use of seasonal patterns as shown in
studies made by the American Gas Association.
For the decade of the 1940's, year-end
figures were extrapolated by use of the Department of Commerce estimates of consumer service expenditures for gas and electricity.
Monthly interpolations between year-end points
were based on the percentage changes in
monthly data on employment and earnings in
gas and electric utilities published by the
Department of Labor. Estimates for each yearend in the 1920's and 1930's were based on

If consumers owe such credit to financial institutions, it is
classified as loan credit—either single-payment or personal instalment—rather than as service credit.

Private education. The only educational institutions carrying any appreciable amount of
consumer credit are the colleges and universities.16 Correspondence schools generally operate on a pay-as-you-go basis, and the final
payment usually precedes or is coincident with
completion of a course. Most commercial
business and trade schools operate on a similar basis.
Benchmark data on the amount outstanding
on student loan funds at colleges and universities are from the Office of Education of the
Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. That Office conducts the Biennial Survey
of Education in the United States, which shows
credit arising from student loan funds and held
by institutions of higher learning. Amounts
outstanding on student loans from Federal
funds are not included in the biennial survey
totals, but the figures are available from the
Office of Education. Since the Federal loan
program was established in 1958, these figures
have been included annually in the benchmarks for service credit outstanding on higher
education. Straight-line interpolations are
used between benchmark dates. Monthly data
are extrapolated from the latest benchmark
date on the basis of the trend in the ratio of
student debt to Department of Commerce data
on expenditures for higher education.
Between 1936 and 1948, the Survey of
Education did not include an item for student
loan funds outstanding. Year-end estimates for
intervening years were based on the relationship of student debt to consumption expenditures for higher education as indicated in the
1936 and 1948 Surveys, with allowances being
made for the decline and subsequent rise in
student debt relative to expenditures during the
war and early postwar years. Prior to 1936
lt;
Loans for higher education made by financial institutions
are not included in the service credit sector of the consumer
credit estimates but in personal instalment loans of the institution holding the credit.




28

estimates for these loans outstanding were
made only in combination with credit for
recreation and other services. The totals were
small relative to the service total and were used
with the major service credit components.
Recreation. Consumer credit for recreation
arises principally from fees charged by golf
and other types of social clubs. Benchmark
data were obtained from the 1950 Survey of
Consumer Expenditures by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, which reported both expenditures and amounts owed for recreation and
education combined. The estimate for recreation credit outstanding at the end of 1950 was
obtained by subtracting the amount outstanding on student loan funds from the estimated
total for recreation and education. Year-end
receivables have been estimated for later
years by applying to the annual consumption figures for recreation the 1950 relationship of the recreation credit estimate
to the Department of Commerce estimate
of consumption expenditures for recreation.
Monthly data are interpolated by the straightline method between year-end points. The
same method was used for making estimates
for years from the mid-1930's to 1950. As
mentioned above, separate estimates of recreation credit were not made for earlier years.
Funeral and legal expenses. Year-end estimates of credit outstanding for funeral and
legal services are extrapolated from a 1950
benchmark of such expenditures provided by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Survey of Consumer Expenditures, using relationships of
credit at the year-end to annual consumption
expenditure data provided by the Department
of Commerce. Monthly data are derived by
straight-line interpolation between year-end
points.
For receivables of one segment, funeral
directors and embalmers, secondary benchmarks based on the Business Census for 1933
and for 1935 were interpolated and extrapolated to 1950 by a corresponding series prepared by Rolf Nugent.

Cleaning, dyeing, pressing, and repair of
garments. Trade association data indicate that
cleaning and dyeing establishments transact on
a charge-account basis a substantial proportion
of their business—perhaps as much as onefifth of the total. Year-end estimates for credit
outstanding were derived from these data and
from the annual estimates of consumption expenditures for cleaning and dyeing from the
Department of Commerce. Monthly estimates
between year-end points are based on changes
in the Department of Labor's monthly data on
employment and earnings in cleaning and dyeing establishments.
Automobile repair services. Service credit for
automobile repairs includes only the amount
outstanding at service garages. Credit for
automobile repairs that is carried on the books
of automobile dealers and other retailers is
included in the consumer credit series either
in instalment credit on other consumer goods
or in charge accounts outstanding.
In making estimates for this sector, it was
assumed that the relationship of year-end re-

ceivables to consumer expenditures in service
garages (derived from the Department of Commerce data) would be the same as that shown
by charge accounts at automobile tire and accessory stores. Interpolation between year-end
benchmarks and extrapolation from the latest
year-end figures make use of the seasonal pattern for charge accounts of automobile tire
and accessory stores in deriving end-of-month
estimates.
Other services. Remaining services involving some consumer credit but for which no
benchmark or monthly credit data are available include radio, television, and other household repair services; accessory and jewelry
repair; and dressmaking (not in shops). Credit
for these services, which account for no more
than 1 per cent of all service credit, is estimated by assuming that one-tenth of the Department of Commerce figures for annual expenditures are made on a 30-day credit basis.
The straight-line method of interpolation is
used between year-end points.

SPECIAL ADJUSTMENTS
tended also tend to rise and fall twice during
the year. This is particularly true of nonautomotive consumer goods paper, which
shows wider seasonal variations than other
segments. This type of credit has its first seasonal peak late in the spring. From this point
it usually declines somewhat in the summer
months and then gradually increases during
the remainder of the year. It reaches its highest point with the Christmas peak in retail
sales.
Extensions of personal loans tend to expand
from a comparatively low level in January and
February to a high point around the middle
of the year. The increase during this period
is accelerated temporarily in the spring by an
expansion in loans to pay income taxes. Ex-

SEASONAL AND RELATED ADJUSTMENTS

The monthly amounts of instalment credit extended and repaid reflect various seasonal influences, for the most part closely related to
the expenditure patterns for the commodities
associated with each type of credit.
Automobile instalment credit extended, for
example, tends to increase during the spring,
with the seasonal expansion in automobile
sales. After some decline during the summer,
it tends to rise again in the fall when most new
models are introduced. Seasonal variations in
automobile credit extended have been somewhat less in recent years than before World
War II.
Two other types of instalment credit ex-




29

tensions of personal loans then decline gradually until about November, but increase sharply
thereafter to another seasonal peak in December.
Repair and modernization loan volume, on
the other hand, increases from a seasonal low
in January and February to a high during the
warm months, then drops off sharply near the
end of the year.
Because repayments on the typical instalment contract are distributed evenly over a
number of months, data on repayments show
much less variation than data on extensions.
The seasonal movements in repayments that
do occur are related to some extent to the
seasonal movements in extensions. The relationship between the two is a complex one because of the wide variety of contract maturities. In the case of personal loans, seasonal
variations in credit repaid tend to accompany,
in a dampened form, the seasonal fluctuations
in credit extended. This reflects to a considerable extent the importance of renewals, which
are reported both as repayments on old loans
and as extensions of new credit.
Seasonal adjustments for both the instalment credit extended and the credit repaid
series are calculated by using a variation of
the Census Method II for electronic computers.
This basic method was described in an article
by Julius Shiskin and Harry Eisenpress.17
Preliminary to the preparation of seasonal
factors, the automobile credit series is adjusted
for changes in the dates of new-model introductions, and all estimates are adjusted for
year-to-year differences in the number of trading days in each month.
In making trading day adjustments, unadjusted totals of credit extended and repaid in
a given month are multiplied by the ratio of
the average number of trading days per month
in that year to the actual number in the month.
The actual number in each month and year
17

1957, pp. 415-49.

is calculated for retail credit as the number of calendar days in the month or year
minus Sundays and principal holidays (New
Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day,
Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas
Day). For credit held by financial institutions,
the count used for retail credit is modified by
deducting one-half of a trading day from a
given month and adding it to the following
month, whenever the last day of the month in
question falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday. The number of trading days and the
seasonal factors used in making the adjusted
estimates for 1963 are shown in the accompanying table.
There are no series for extensions and repayments of noninstalment credit, but outstanding balances are adjusted for seasonal
variation and for the changing date of Easter
by using computer techniques similar to those
used for instalment credit. Monthly changes
in noninstalment credit, seasonally adjusted,
represent the differences between seasonally
adjusted outstandings.
Seasonal factors are reviewed for accuracy
annually at the time new benchmark data are
incorporated. Any revisions in the seasonally
adjusted figures that may result from this
review are published in the Federal Reserve
Bulletin.
STRAIGHT-LINE ADJUSTMENT TO
BENCHMARKS

In almost every segment of the consumer credit
statistics, preliminary estimates are adjusted
periodically to more complete annual or survey
data, much of it from the Bureau of the Census.
Since no information is available as to when
the difference between the preliminary estimates and the benchmark figures arises or at
what rate it has accumulated, it is assumed
that the observed error at the end of the period
has accumulated gradually over the entire
period, with the minimum error occurring at
the beginning of the period and the maximum

The table on page 32 illustrates how the

According to data obtained in the Survey
for June 30, 1960, personal instalment loans
outstanding at sales finance companies totaled
$988,985,000 as shown in Column 4. The
estimate that had been made for that date,
based on sample data, was $970,835,000, as
shown in Column 2. The factors required to
correct the sample-based series—the ratios of

1.00000 for the June 1955 benchmark to
