the BUSINESS SITUATION

JtLcONOMIC activity and prices increased moderately in the fourth
quarter, according to the "flash" GNP
estimates. A 3-percent annual rate increase in real GNP, in combination
with a IVa-percent increase in the
third quarter, indicates a marked
slowing in the second half of 1984
from a much larger increase in the
first half. The GNP fixed-weighted
price index increased at an annual
rate of 3V2 percent in the fourth quarter, continuing the gradual slowing of
inflation throughout 1984 (table I).1
The third- and fourth-quarter increases in real GNP were not markedly different; table 1 shows that the
fourth-quarter increase was larger by
only 1.2 percentage points, or about
$5 billion. However, it should be
noted that large swings in two GNP
components tended to offset each
other. Further, the two components—
change in business inventories and
1. Quarterly estimates in the national income and
product accounts are expressed at seasonally adjusted
annual rates, and quarterly changes in them are differences between these rates. Quarter-to-quarter percent changes are compounded to annual rates. Real,
or constant-dollar, estimates are expressed in 1972 dollars.
The procedures used to prepare the "flash" estimates—that is, estimates prepared 15 days before the
end of the quarter—are the same as those used to prepare the estimates released after the end of the quarter. However, the source data that are available are
limited to only 1 or 2 months of the quarter and, in
most cases, are preliminary. The major source data
that are available are: For personal consumption expenditures (PCE), October and November retail sales,
unit sales of new autos through the first 10 days of
December, and sales of new trucks for October and
November; for nonresidential fixed investment, the
same data for autos and trucks as for PCE, October
construction put in place, and October manufacturers'
shipments of equipment; for residential investment,
October construction put in place, and October housing starts; for change in business inventories, October
book values for manufacturing and trade, and unit
auto inventories for October and November; for net exports of goods and services, October merchandise
trade; for government purchases of goods and services,
Federal unified budget outlays for October, State and
local construction put in place for October, and State
and local employment for October and November; and
for GNP prices, the Consumer Price Index for October,
and ihe Producer Price Index for October and November.

net exports—are particularly difficult
to estimate for the flash GNP estimate. Only 1 month of source data for
these components is available, and
the data show substantial month-tomonth volatility, which masks any
trend that would be a guide to projecting the missing months of source
data. The flash GNP estimate in the
fourth quarter includes a slowing in
inventory investment that subtracted
about as much from the change in
GNP as the $10% billion pickup had
added in the third quarter. The flash
estimate also includes a substantial
increase in net exports after a $15%
billion decline—from a negative $11%
billion to a negative $27 billion—in
the third quarter. Both the fourthquarter increase in net exports and
the third-quarter decline were largely
accounted for by imports.
Other components of GNP are, in
general, less difficult to estimate for
the flash estimate: Even if only 1
month of source data is available, the
data show less volatility, and for some

components—notably personal consumption expenditures (PCE)—more
than 1 month of data is available. The
measure that is the sum of these components—final sales to domestic purchasers—probably increased about as
much in the fourth quarter as the 3percent increase in the third. Earlier
in 1984, this measure, which represents domestic demand, had been
much stronger, registering increases
of 6x/2 percent and 11 percent in the
first and second quarters, respectively. Within this measure, PCE increased somewhat more in the fourth
quarter than in the third, fixed investment increased less than in the
third, and government purchases increased about the same in both quarters.
Fourth-quarter developments in the
components of real GNP, in GNP
prices, and in personal income are
sketched below on the basis of data
available as of mid-December.
• PCE increased moderately after a
pause—an increase of only l/2 percent—in the third quarter. Most of
the pickup was in durable goods,
where purchases of furniture and
equipment increased
substantially
more than in the third quarter. In addition, purchases of motor vehicles declined less than in the third quarter;
autos declined, as they had in the
third quarter, but trucks strengthened. Purchases of nondurables declined again, about as much as the 1percent decline registered in the third
quarter. Several categories—food, in
particular—declined
and
others
changed little. Services increased
about as much as the 4-percent increase in the third quarter.
• Nonresidential fixed investment
continued to increase, but at only
about one-half the third-quarter increase of 13V2 percent. In producers'
durable equipment (PDE), the slowing
was in both motor vehicles and other

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
PDE. In the former, as in PCE on
motor vehicles, the weakness was in
the auto component, which declined
after a third-quarter increase. In
terms of unit auto sales to all final
purchasers, the drop was to about 9.9
million (seasonally adjusted annual
rate) from 10.3 million in the third
quarter. In contrast, unit sales of
trucks increased to about 4.4 million
(seasonally adjusted annual rate) in
the fourth quarter from 4.1 million in
the third, continuing a strong rebound to record or near-record levels
in several categories. In other PDE,
the slowing was in computers and
communications equipment. Structures strengthened after little change
in the third quarter, when the increase in commercial structures had
slowed. As discussed in the article
that reports on BEA's October-November plant and equipment expenditure survey, which now includes plans
for the full year ahead, business plans
to increase capital spending in 1985
roughly one-half as much as in 1984.
The smaller fourth-quarter increase
in nonresidential fixed investment included in the flash GNP estimate appears consistent with these plans.
• Residential investment was down
again, about as much as the 4x/2 percent registered in the third quarter.
Construction of single-family structures declined in both the third and
fourth quarters, reflecting a one-third
falloff in housing starts from their
recent peak in February. A decline in
mortgage interest rates since July has
yet to work its way through to encourage construction. Construction of
multifamily units increased about as
much as in the third quarter, and the
"other" component (largely additions
and alterations, mobile homes, and
commissions on house sales) changed
little.
• Business inventories accumulated at a substantial rate, but less than
the $30V2 billion accumulation in the
third quarter. An increase in motor
vehicle inventories—the only part of
inventories for which more than 1
month of source data is available for
the fourth quarter—reflected automakers' rebuilding of inventories
after extensive plant closings in the
United States and strikes in both the
United States and Canada. Only fragmentary information is available
about farm inventories; it appears
that accumulation was roughly the




same as the $4 billion in the third
quarter. Nonfarm inventories other
than motor vehicles appear to have
increased, but less than the $26 billion in the third quarter. Reflecting
the substantial additions to inventories in the earlier quarters of 1984
and the variability of the increases in
final sales, inventory-sales ratios had
turned up in the first quarter,
dropped back in the second, and increased in the third. In the fourth
quarter, it appears that the ratios
held at about the third-quarter level.
• Net exports, as mentioned earlier, appear to have increased substantially. The increase, the first in 3
years, reflected a decline in imports
after a huge—$18 billion—increase in
the third quarter. In merchandise imports, where the decline was concentrated, declines were widely spread
across end-use commodity categories,
as the increase had been in the third
quarter. The average change for the
third and fourth quarters, appears to
have been a substantial increase, indicating that imports continue to reflect
the effects of cumulative dollar appreciation. Investment income payments
also appear to have declined, partly
reflecting lower interest rates on portfolio investment. In exports, both agricultural and nonagricultural merchandise exports increased, but the
increases were more than offset by a
decline in investment income receipts.
• Government purchases increased
about as much as in the third quarter, when the Federal and the State
and local components had contributed
about equally to a SVk-percent increase. In Federal purchases, defense
purchases increased after a slight decline. Commodity Credit Corporation
(CCC) activities continued to dominate
quarterly changes in nondefense purchases. A higher rate of increase in
CCC inventories added to purchases
in the fourth quarter, but not as
much as the $2 billion addition in the
third. In State and local purchases, a
smaller increase than in the third
quarter was largely in structures.
• The GNP fixed-weighted price
index increased Sl/2 percent, down
from 4 percent in the third quarter.
The fourth-quarter increase in PCE
prices as measured by the fixedweighted price index was slightly
larger than the 4 percent registered
in the third quarter; food prices increased slightly more than in the

December 1984

third quarter, and energy prices increased after a small decline. Prices
of structures—both residential and
nonresidential—showed little change
after third-quarter increases in the
range of 1V2-4 percent, and prices of
PDE slowed from a 3-percent increase.
• Personal income increased about
$50 billion, compared with $62 V2 billion in the third quarter. Most of the
slowing was in personal interest
income, which was up only about onehalf as much as the $23% billion increase in the third quarter. The
smaller increase largely reflected the
widespread decline in interest rates.
Other components of personal income
increased about as much as they had
in the third quarter: wage and salary
disbursements and farm proprietors'
income slightly less, and nonfarm proprietors' income slightly more.
The smaller increase in personal
income in the fourth quarter than in
the third was augmented in its effect
on disposable personal income by a
slightly larger increase in personal
taxes than in the third quarter. Although prices of PCE as measured by
the implicit price deflator increased
less than in the third quarter, the increase in real disposable income
slowed further—down about 2 percentage points from the 4-percent increase in the third quarter. Earlier in
1984, the increases in real disposable
income had been
substantially
larger—8l/2 percent and 6 1 /2 percent
in the first and second quarters, respectively. The fourth-quarter increase in personal outlays—in which
PCE predominates—was about the
same as that in disposable personal
income, so personal saving changed
little. The saving rate held at about
the third quarter's rate of 6.3 percent.
Throughout 1984, the saving rate
varied only slightly around 6 percent,
as the slowing in disposable income
was accompanied by a similar slowing
in outlays.

Corporate Profits
Revised third-quarter
estimates
show that profits from current production—profits with inventory valuation adjustment and capital consumption adjustment—declined $8 billion, to $283 billion, following a $13 V2
billion increase in the second. The
preliminary estimates, presented in

December 1984

November, had shown a decline of
$9% billion.
The revisions generally reinforce
the picture of widespread declines in
domestic profits described in the November "Business Situation/' The revisions show sharper declines in profits of manufacturers and financial
corporations, but show trade profits,
which had been down in the preliminary estimates, as unchanged. (A discussion of manufacturers' gross profits shares follows.)
The revised estimates show a picture for rest-of-the-world profits
sharply different from that presented
in November. Revised profits from the
rest of the world increased $3 billion
in the third quarter, to $24 Vk billion,
following at $4x/2 billion decline in the
second. (Preliminary estimates of restof-the-world profits had been down
$V2 billion.) Both receipts on U.S.
assets abroad and payments on foreign assets in the United States were
up, but receipts were up more. (See
the article "U.S. International Transactions, Third Quarter 1984" in this
issue and table 1 on page 11, which
reconciles the balance on goods and
services in the balance of payment accounts with net exports in the national income and product accounts.)
Manufacturers9gross profits share
Manufacturers' economic performance has been debated in recent
years, some alleging that performance
has been deteriorating and others disputing this allegation.2 The debate is
important because proponents of certain policy meausures—for example,
industrial development banks and tax
incentives for investment—cite the alleged deterioration to support their
recommendations. Others, who dispute the idea of general deterioration,
take the position that sustained economic growth will automatically
create jobs and investment in manufacturing. The following discussion
suggests gross profits as a share of
gross product as a rough measure of
industry performance, and uses it to
evaluate the record in manufacturing
since 1947.
Gross profits as a share of gross
product—Industry gross product is
defined as sales or receipts plus
2. For a summary of this debate, see Robert Z. Lawrence, Can America Compete? (Washington, DC: The
Brookings Institution, 1984).




SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
change in inventories less intermediate goods and services purchased.
(The last item is also called current
account purchases; in the context of
industry meaures, it is the output
other than plant and equipment purchased for its own use by one industry
from other industries.) Industry gross
product is also defined as the costs of
production—that is, the compensation
of employees, net interest, depreciation and other capital consumption allowances, and indirect business
taxes—and business profits, of which
corporate profits are the largest category. The national income and product account (NIPA) estimates of industry gross product are prepared by
implementing the second definition. It
is in the framework of these estimates
that gross profits as a percentage of
gross product—hereafter called the
gross profits share—is calculated.3
Gross profits is defined for this discussion as corporate profits with inventory valuation adjustment plus
two components of the costs of production—net interest and corporate
capital consumption allowances. It
would be desirable to use a measure
net of capital consumption allowances
with the capital consumption adjustment—that is, a measure of capital
consumption that has been adjusted
to reflect uniform service lives and
depreciation formulas and valued at
replacement cost; however, such an
adjusted measure of capital consumption allowances is not available by industry. A measure gross of corporate
capital consumption allowances does
maintain the desirable characteristic
of being unaffected by changes in tax
law that affect depreciation; for example, it is unaffected by the introduction in 1981 of the accelerated cost recovery system. The inclusion of net
interest in gross profits provider a
measure that reflects returns to both
debt and equity capital, and is thus
unaffected by changes over time in
their proportion.
In one respect, the coverage of the
gross profits share as calculated for
this discussion is not fully consistent.
Net interest covers both corporate
3. Annual estimates of gross product by industry are
in NIPA table 6.1. That table shows the gross product
total for major industries, including manufacturing,
durable goods manufacturing, and nondurable goods
manufacturing. Estimates for gross product and its 14
components at the 2-digit SIC industry level are available from BEA.

and noncorporate establishments, but
the other components of gross profits
cover only corporate establishments.
Gross product also covers both corporate and noncorporate establishments.
(Corporate gross product is available
for some, but not all, of the 1947-83
period.) For a measure of the corportate gross profits share, the lack of
full consistency does not affect the results appreciably, because the noncorporate shares of net interest and
gross product are very small.
Gross product and the components
of gross profits, except net interest,
are on an establishment basis rather
than a company basis.4 Net interest is
on a company basis because information for allocating it to an establishment basis is not available. Establishment-based measures are appropriate
indicators of industry performance because, unlike company-based measures, they allocate to each industry
only the results of activities in that
industry. The difference between the
two bases can be illustrated with reference to an integrated company that
maintains petroleum extraction operations, a pipeline, and a refinery. In
establisment-based estimates,
the
gross product and gross profits from
the three kinds of establishments
would appear in mining, public utilities, and manufacturing, respectively.
In company-based estimates, all the
company's operation would appear in
the industry that constitute the company's primary activity.5
The rough measure of industry performance that the gross profits share
provides does not indicate performance in the sense of ability to maintain past levels of output or market
share. For example, a shrinking industry that maintains its gross profits
by closing plants could record a constant share. The gross profits share
does, however, indicate performance
in the sense of ability of an industry
to remain profitable under changing
circumstances.
4. Company-based corporate profits with inventory
valuation adjustment, corporate capital consumption
allowances, and net interest are in NIPA tables 6.20,
6.26, and 6.19, respectively.
5. For corporate profits before tax with inventory
valuation adjustment and corporate capital consumption allowances, the two classification bases yield divergent estimates for some industries. In manufacturing industries in 1983, for example, the establishmentbased sum of these components as a percentage of the
company-based sum ranged from 13 percent for petroleum and coal products to 111 percent for fabricated
metal products.

Manufacturers9 performance, 194783.—The gross profits share for all
manufacturing, durable goods and
nondurable goods manufacturing, and
selected manufacturing industries for
1947-83 are shown in charts 1 and 2.
Although the shares show pronounced
cyclical fluctuations, in most cases
some underlying trend is discernible.
For all manufacturing, the share appears to have been relatively stable,
lending little support to the hypothesis of declining performance in manufacturing. Nondurables manufacturing shows a relatively stable share

The following discussion highlights
the industries where the growth in
employment and hours was the
strongest and weakest in the 2 years
following the 1981-82 recession. It
also compares growth during that
period, 1982-84, with growth in the 2
years, 1975-77, following the 1973-75
recession. The period following the
trough in real GNP in the first quarter of 1975 is used for comparison because it followed a recession similar
to the 1981-82 recession in depth and
duration. In addition, quarterly employment growth in 1975-77 was the
median of the seven (post-World War

Employment by industry
Nonfarm employment as measured
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics establishment survey increased 5.3 million, or 3 percent at an annual rate,

percentage point larger than that
over the 2 years following the 1973-75

periods nonfarm employment regained prerecession peaks in most

the same period appeared in the "Business Situation"
in the October 1984 SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS.
In this discussion, peaks and troughs hi real GNP

public and private, but did not regain
prerecession peaks in most goods-producing industries (table 2).
Despite an initial decline, total nonfarm employment regained the prerecession peak by the fourth quarter of

1983 and expanded in the first three
quarters of 1984. More than threefourths of the 2-year increase in employment occurred in the second
year—a larger proportion than in any
other post-World War II recovery. In

1975-77, slightly more than one-half
of the increase had occurred in the
second year.
The increase in nonfarm employment was broadly based; employment
increased in every major industry
group—albeit slowly in some—except
mining (table 3).
Private service-producing industries.—A little over one-half of nonfarm employment is in private service-producing industries, which accounted for 3.5 million, or about twothirds, of the total 2-year increase.
Relatively higher growth rates during
the 1982-84 postrecession period—an
annual rate of 3l/2 percent—continued
a long-term shift towards these jobs.
The 1982-84 growth rate matched
that in 1975-77 for these industries.
Of the four private service-producing
industry groups, employment in
two—transportation and public utilities and wholesale and retail trade—
more than regained prerecession
peaks over the 2-year period. Employment in financfe, insurance, and real
estate and in services had increased
over the recession and increased more
rapidly in the recovery.
Goods-producing industries.—A little over one-quarter of nonfarm em-

1981:111 and 1982:111 for the 1981-82 recession.

ployment is in goods-producing industries, which increased 1.5 million and
accounted for about one-third of the
overall increase. Manufacturing employment grew at an annual rate of 3
percent, a slightly higher rate than
that following the 1973-75 recession.
Durables employment grew at twice
the 1975-77 rate, and nondurables at
about two-thirds the 1975-77 rate. All
of the growth in durables and most of
the growth in nondurables occurred
in the second year.
Employment in both durable and
nondurable manufacturing did not
regain prerecession peaks in 1982-84,
just as it had not in 1975-77. In durables, notable exceptions were electronics, motor vehicles, lumber and
lumber products, and furniture; these
industries
regained
prerecession
peaks in 1982-84, but had not in
1975-77. Growth in the electronics industry—a "high technology" industry—reflected strong sales of microcomputers and telecommunications
equipment. A rebound in sales of
automobiles and trucks accounted for
much of the employment growth in
motor vehicles, and a rebound in sales
of new homes accounted for much of
the employment growth in lumber

and lumber products and in furniture.
In nondurables, the printing and publishing industry and the rubber and
miscellaneous plastics products industry both regained prerecession peaks
in 1982-84; in 1975-77, the former
had regained the prerecession peak,
the latter had not.
Construction employment grew
sharply—0.5 million, or 6 percent at
an annual rate—in 1982-84 and exceeded the prerecession peak. In contrast, construction employment had
been unchanged in 1975-77. The
strong 1982-84 growth, which was
centered in special trades (e.g., carpenters, masons, plumbers, and electricians) and in residential construction, reflected the sharp recovery in
new home building.
In mining, employment declined 0.1
million, or 3% percent at an annual
rate—in sharp contrast to the 4 Ms-percent rate of increase following the
1973-75 recession. Mining employment had increased over the 1973-75
recession and had continued to increase in 1975-77. Much of the contrast in growth in the postrecession
periods is tied to energy marketscoal, natural gas, and crude oil.
Government.—Employment increases in government were sluggish in
comparison with both private serviceproducing and goods-producing industries; it increased only 0.2 million, or
l
/2 percent at an annual rate, over the
2 years. Government accounted for
about one-sixth of total nonfarm employment, but only 4 percent of the 2year increase—reflecting efforts to

hold down employment levels. Employment did regain the prerecession
peak as it had in 1975-77. In contrast
to that period, 1982-84 growth was
slow in both the Federal and the
State and local components; in 197577, Federal Government employment
had declined, and State and local government employment had increased
more rapidly.
Average weekly hours by industry
Despite an initial decline in the
fourth quarter of 1982, average
weekly hours for private nonfarm
production and nonsupervisory workers increased 0.5 hours in the 2 years
following the third-quarter
trough in
real GNP (chart 4).8 The increase was
strong in comparison with the 0.1hour increase in 1975-77. As with employment, private nonfarm hours regained the prerecession peak—35.2
hours—in the fourth quarter of 1983;
hours reached 0.1 hours above that
level in the first three quarters of
1984. Three-fifths of the increase following the 1981-82 recession occurred
in the first year; increases in the first
year following the 1973-75 recession
had more than accounted for the
1975-77 increase.
The increase in average weekly
hours was broadly based; hours increased over the postrecession period
in all but one major industry group;
8. As an input to production, each 0.1-hour increase
in hours for private nonfarm production workers was
equivalent to an increase in employment of about 170180 thousand.

hours in services were unchanged.
The largest increases were in goodsproducing industries, which had suffered the largest drops in the recession. In 1975-77, no industry group
had regained its prerecession peak; in
1982-84, however, most regained their
prerecession peaks.
Private service-producing industries.—Average weekly hours increased slightly, on average, in service-producing industries in 1982-84;
hours had declined in 1975-77 (table
4). Hours regained prerecession peaks
in transportation and public utilities.
Hours in finance, insurance, and real
estate and in services had increased
over the recession. Hours in the
former continued to increase in 198284, while those in the latter were unchanged. Hours did not regain prerecession peaks in wholesale and retail
trade. None of the groups had regained prerecession peaks in 1975-77;
in fact, hours declined in all but
transportation and public utilities.
Goods-producing industries.—Average weekly hours increased even
more strongly in manufacturing, construction, and mining in 1982-84 than
they had in 1975-77. Prerecession
peaks were regained in manufacturing (including that for overtime) and
in construction. In manufacturing,
almost all of the increase occurred in




the first year, and probably reflected
employers' use of increased hours
rather than recalls or new hires to
boost production early in the recovery. The increase in construction continued an increase over the preceding
recession. In mining, where the prerecession peak was not regained, most
of the increase in hours occurred in
the second year. Hours had not regained the prerecession peak in any
goods-producing group in 1975-77.
Comparison of the overall (net) increase in construction hours in 198284 with that in 1975-77 conceals
sharp fluctuations in hours within
each period; early in the 1975-77
period, hours had regained the prerecession peak,
Summary
The recovery and expansion in employment and hours for the nonfarm
sector was strong in the 2 years following the 1982 trough in real GNP,
but not among the strongest of the
post-World War II recoveries. The
1982-84 increase in total labor input
to production was more concentrated
in the second year. Most of the increase in hours occurred in the first
year, but most of the increase in employment occurred in the second. In
1975-77, the increase in total labor
input had been more concentrated in
the first year due to a strong increase
in hours.
The recovery and expansion in employment was about the same as that
following the 1973-75 recession, which
was the median for the post-war

period. Employment levels that had
existed prior to the 1981-82 recession
were, in general, regained in serviceproducing industries but not in goodsproducing industries—about the same
performance as in 1975-77. The
strongest increases were registered in
construction and services; employment declined in mining and increased only slowly in transportation
and public utilities.
The recovery and expansion in average weekly hours was stronger than
that in 1975-77. Prerecession hours
levels, which had not been regained
in the 1975-77 recovery, were regained in most industries in 1982-84.
The strongest increases were registered in the three goods-producing industries—manufacturing,
construction, and mining. Hours remained unchanged in services, after increasing
over the recession, and increased only
slightly in wholesale and retail trade.

Federal Fiscal Developments:
The Tax Reform Proposal
In late November, the Department
of the Treasury released the proposal
for tax reform requested in the President's State of the Union message last
January.9 The proposal is designed to
make the tax system more equitable,
simpler, and more conducive to economic growth. If enacted, it would be

over work, or consumption over
saving and investment.
• Equity. Reform would not place
significantly different tax burden^ on taxpayers in similar economic circumstances.
• Lower tax rates. Reform would
keep tax rates as low as possible,
given other objectives.
• An unchanged distribution of tax
burdens across income classes.
Reform would not significantly
change tax burdens across income
classes, but would alter the distribution of tax burdens within
income classes.
• Fairness for families. Reform
would assure that families with
incomes below the poverty level
would pay little or no tax.

a significant revision of the tax
system, including a substantial modification of the progressivity of the
rate structure.
Before formulating the proposal,
the Treasury completed a study of
four options: a pure flat tax, a modified flat tax, a tax on income consumed, and a general sales tax, including a value-added tax and a Federal retail sales tax. The study laid
out the following major objectives:
• Revenue neutrality.
Reform
would leave revenues essentially
unchanged from what they would
be under current law.
• Economic neutrality. Reform
would not unnecessarily distort
choices about how income is
earned or how it is spent. It

December 1984

• An inflation-proof
tax law.
Reform would provide inflation
adjustments—indexation—in the
measurement of taxable income.
The proposal—for which the modified flat tax is the basis—is essentially revenue neutral (see table 5), it
does provide lower tax rates, and, according to the Treasury, it does not
significantly change tax burdens
apross income classes. However, in designing a tax system that is simpler,
the proposal may have been only
partly successful. Some aspects of the
proposal—such as the reduction in
the number of tax rates and brackets
and the repeal of many deductions—
worked toward simplification, but
other aspects—such as the indexation
of capital gains, interest, inventories,
and depreciation allowances—may
have worked toward complication.
According to the Treasury, the proposal is an integrated package;
changes are mutually dependent; and
must occur together to avoid inequities, distortions, complex administrative rules, and increased compliance
costs. Any change in the package
means that either the proposed rate
structure or another proposal must be
redesigned in order to meet the objectives mentioned above.
The proposal would reduce the average individual's income taxes by 8x/2
percent while raising corporation
income taxes by 37 percent. Under
the proposal, 78 percent of individual
taxpayers would experience no tax
change or a tax decrease, and 22 percent would experience higher taxes.
Of individuals with higher taxes,
more than one-half would have an increase of less than 1 percent of
income. The gainers under the Treasury proposal are likely to be lowincome families and middle-income
individuals who have few deductions
or credits. Losers are those who have
many deductions and credits, or who
live in States with high income taxes.
Among corporations, gainers are
likely to be in service and hightechnology industries, while those in
capital-intensive industries, petroleum companies, and banks would be
losers.
Effective dates and transition rules
The Treasury proposal recognizes
the difficulties in implementing such
a sweeping revision to the tax system.

case of the two largest fringe benefits—employer-provided health care
and life insurance—the new rules will
be fully effective January 1, 1990. In
addition, for those cases where taxsheltered income is brought into the
tax base, it is recommended that the
increase in income tax be spread

NOTE.—For the third quarter of 1984, the following revised or additional major source data became available: For personal
consumption expenditures, revised retail sales for September, consumer share of new car purchases for September, and
consumption of electricity for September; for nonresidential fixed investment, revised manufacturers' shipments of equipment for
September, revised construction put in place for September, and business share of new car purchases for September; for
residential investment, revised construction put in place for September, and residential alterations and repairs for the quarter; for
change in business inventories, revised book values for manufacturing and trade for September; for net exports of goods and
services, revised merchandise trade and revised service receipts for the quarter; for government purchases of goods and services,
revised construction put in place for September; for wages and salaries, revised employment, average hourly earnings, and
average weekly hours for September; for net interest, financial assets held by households for September, and revised net interest
received from abroad for the quarter; for corporate profits, revised domestic book profits for the quarter, and revised profits from
the rest of the world for the quarter; and for GNP prices, revised residential housing prices for the quarter.

and the earned income tax credit accounts for $19.2 billion of the reductions. The proposal to index interest
introduces some complications into
the tax code. Mortgage interest on an
individual's primary residence is fully
deductible. Other interest expense is
then netted against interest income to
derive net interest income (or exIndividual income taxes
pense). If the taxpayer has net interIndividual income taxes are re- est income, a portion—the fractional

limit on interest deductions, and
elimination of the business deductions

meal and travel costs in excess of a
limit.
4. Delayed implementation. For various reasons, the Treasury recommends delayed implementation for
many of the changes in the taxation
of estates, certain military cash compensation, and unemployment and
workers' compensation (January 1,
1987); interest indexing (January 1,
1988); indexing capital gains on nondepreciable assets (January 1, 1989);
and repeal of the individual and corporate minimum taxes (January 1,
1990).
The remainder of this article will
discuss the major features of the
Treasury proposals (see tables 6 and
7). The effect for the year 1990 is referred to in order to encompass the
full implementation of the proposals.

to reflect the relationship between
the current rate of inflation—measured by the percentage increase in
the Consumer Price Index over the
previous 12 months—and the longrun
real interest rate. The desired relationship is approximated by dividing
the inflation rate by the nominal interest rate. For example, assuming an
inflation rate of 4 percent and a
nominal interest of 10 percent, the exclusion rate would be 40 percent.
Thus, 40 percent of nominal net interest income will not be taxed.
The repeal and limiting of deductions account for the largest share—
$50.3 billion—of the proposed increases and include: (1) repeal of the
deduction for State and local government taxes, and (2) limiting the deduction for charitable contributions to
those above 2 percent of AGI. The
repeal and limiting of exclusions account for $20.2 billion of the increases
and include taxing: (1) employer-paid
health insurance premiums in excess

of $70 per month for a single person
and $175 per month for a family, and
(2) workers' compensation, but with a
special credit for the elderly and disabled. The proposal to repeal the accelerated cost recovery system (ACRS)
for depreciation and replace it with
an indexed economic depreciation—
the real cost recovery system—increases taxes $12.9 billion.
The proposal to provide relief from
double taxation of dividends by allowing a 50-percent dividend-paid deduction to corporations increases individual income taxes $7.4 billion (based
on the assumption that more dividends will be paid by corporations).

Corporation income taxes
Corporation income taxes are increased $44.7 billion in 1990 by the
Treasury proposal, the net result of
$109.5 billion in tax reductions and
$154.4 billion in tax increases. Changing the rate structure from a graduated tax rate, up to 46 percent, to a flat
rate of 33 percent accounts for the
bulk of the reductions. The major increase occurs from repeal of ACRS
and replacing it with indexed economic depreciation. Repeal of the investment tax credit and applying uniform
rules for multiperiod construction increase taxes $31.7 billion and $13.9
billion, respectively.

Other taxes
Estate and gift taxes are reduced
slightly by a proposal to unify the
estate and gift tax structure by conforming the computation of the gift
tax base to that of the estate tax.
Excise taxes are reduced $3.1 billion
in 1990 by the proposal to accelerate
the phase-out of the windfall profit
tax.

Summary of BEA Staff Paper
Cyclical Adjustment of the Federal Budget and Federal Debt: Detailed Methodology and
Estimates
By Thomas M. Holloway
This paper describes the models
that BEA uses to estimate the cyclically adjusted Federal budget and inflation-induced changes in the cyclically adjusted budget. The quarterly
data for the variables in the models
and the regression equations underlying the coefficients in the models are
presented. The paper also discusses
the cyclical adjustment of Federal
debt and shows some results. Finally,

the paper presents some simplified estimation procedures that approximate
the results of the complete models,
but have much more limited data requirements.
This paper, which is No. 40 in the
BEA Staff Paper series, may be ordered from the Superintendent of
Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402.
The telephone number is (202) 783-

3238. The stock number is 003-01000126-7; price, $7.50. A supplement to
the staff paper provides revisions and
updates of the quarterly data from
the first quarter of 1981 to the second
quarter of 1984. The supplement is
available upon request from the Government Division (BE-57), Bureau of
Economic Analysis, U.S. Department
of Commerce, Washington, DC 20230.

Table 5.10-5.11:
1. Inventories are as of the end of the quarter. The quarter-to-quarter change in inventories
calculated from current-dollar inventories in this table is not the current-dollar change in business inventories (CBI) component of GNP. The former is the difference between two inventory
stocks, each valued at their respective end-of-quarter prices. The latter is the change in the physical volume of inventories valued at average prices of the quarter. In addition, changes calculated
from this table are at quarter rates, whereas CBI is stated at annual rates. Quarter-to-quarter
changes calculated from the constant-dollar inventories shown in this table are at quarterly
rates, whereas the constant-dollar change in business inventories component of GNP is stated at
annual rates.
2. Quarterly totals at monthly rates. Business final sales equals final sales less gross product of
households and institutions, government, and rest-of-the-world and includes a small amount of
final sales by farms.

Table 5.8-5.9:
1. The IVA shown in this table differs from that which adjusts business income. The IVA in
this table reflects the mix of methods (first-in-first-out, last-in-first-out, etc.) underlying book
value inventories derived primarily from Census Bureau Statistics. The mix differs from that underlying business income derived primarily from Internal Revenue Service statistics.

NOTE.—The implicit price deflator for GNP is a weighted average of the detailed price indexes
used in the deflation of GNP. In each period, the weights are based on the composition of
constant-dollar output in that period. In other words, the price index for each item (1972=100)
is weighted by the ratio of the quantity of the item valued in 1972 prices to the total output in
1972 prices. Changes in the implicit price deflator reflect both changes in prices and changes in

the composition of output. The chain price index uses as weights the composition of output in
the prior period, and therefore reflects only the change in prices between the two periods.
However, comparisons of percent changes in the chain index also reflect changes in the
composition of output. The fixed-weighted price index uses as weights the composition of output
in 1972. Accordingly, comparisons over any time span reflect only changes in prices.

Plant and Equipment Expenditures:
• Quarters of 1984
• First and Second Quarters of 1985
• Year 1985

Bi

BUSINESS plans to spend $333.4
billion for new plant and equipment
in 1985, 8.4 percent more than in
1984, according to the survey conducted in late October and November
(tables 1 and 2, and chart 5).1 The
latest estimate for 1984 spending is
$307.6 billion, 14.3 percent more than
in 1983, and is essentially unchanged
from that reported in September for
the survey conducted in late July and
August.2
Real spending—capital spending adjusted to remove price changes—is estimated to increase 6.8 percent in
1985. The latest estimate of real
spending for 1984 indicates an increase of 13.3 percent from 1983; real

1. The series consists of business expenditures for
new plant and equipment (P&E)—both for replacement and expansion—by U.S. companies for their domestic operations, including most costs that are
chargeable to fixed asset accounts and for which depreciation or amortization accounts are ordinarily
maintained. The series excludes expenditures for land
and mineral rights; maintenance and repair; used
plant and equipment, including that purchased or acquired through mergers or acquisitions; assets located
in foreign countries; residential structures; and a few
other minor items.
The coverage of the series and the pattern of estimates differ from those of the nonresidential fixed investment (NRFI) component of GNP. The major differences in coverage are the inclusion in the GNP component of investment by the farm sector, real estate,
professional and medical services, and certain other
nonmanufacturing industries; certain outlays charged
as current expenses by business; reimbursable expenditures for new motor vehicles purchased by employees
for business use; and certain transactions in used
plant and equipment. The pattern of estimates may
also differ due to timing; the NRFI series reflects construction put in place and shipments of equipment,
whereas the P&E series reflects expenditures.
2. Spending plans have been adjusted for systematic
reporting biases. Quarterly estimates were adjusted
for each industry, for each quarter of the year, based
on the median ratios of planned to actual spending for
that quarter in the preceding 8 years. Annual estimates for 1985 were adjusted for each industry when
planned spending deviated from actual spending in
the same direction in at least 5 of the last 7 years.
When this criterion was met, an adjustment was made
by taking the median deviation between planned and
actual spending for the preceding 5 years. Before adjustment, 1984 planned spending was $132.12 billion
in manufacturing and $175.07 billion in nonmanufacturing, and 1985 planned spending was $149.36 billion
in manufacturing and $183.70 billion in nonmanufacturing.




spending declined 3.6 percent in 1983
(tables 2 and 3). Estimates of real
spending are computed from the
survey data on current-dollar spending plans and from estimated capital
goods price deflators prepared by
BEA.3 The latest deflators developed
by BEA indicate that capital goods
prices will increase 1.5 percent in
1985, following a 0.8-percent increase
in 1984; capital goods prices declined
1.3 percent in 1983.

Revised estimates of plant and equipment expenditures, 1947-83, will be published in the February 1985 issue of the
SURVEY OP CURRENT BUSINESS. Estimates
for the fourth quarter of 1984 and revised estimates for the first three quarters of 1984 will appear in the April 1985
SURVEY.

Current-dollar spending in the third
quarter of 1984 increased 3.4 percent,
to an annual rate of $313.1 billion, following a 3.3-percent increase in the
second quarter; third-quarter spending was 1.0 percent lower than
planned spending reported 3 months
ago. Plans reported in the latest
survey indicate a 2.6-percent increase
in the fourth quarter, and increases of
5.1 percent and 2.1 percent in the

3. Specifically, the current-dollar figures reported by
survey respondents are adjusted using implicit price
deflators, for each industry group, based on unpublished data in the national income and product accounts. To estimate planned real spending, the implicit price deflators for each industry are extrapolated
using the average rate of change during the latest
four quarters for which they are available.

1. Estimates are based on planned capital expenditures reported by business in late October
and November 1984. The planned expenditures are adjusted for systematic biases in reporting.
The adjustment procedures are described in the October 1980 SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS.
Before bias adjustment, current-dollar plans for 1984 were $307.18 billion for all industries,
$132.12 billion for manufacturing, and $175.07 billion for nonmanufacturing surveyed quarterly,
and current-dollar plans for 1985 were $333.06 billion for all industries, $149.36 billion for manufacturing, and $183.70 billion for nonmanufacturing surveyed quarterly.
2. Surveyed quarterly.

March 1984 SURVEY. The current-dollar plans for 1984 were $343.57 billion for total nonfarm
business, $213.86 billion for total nonmanufacturing, and $36.77 billion for nonmanufacturing surveyed annually.
8. "All industries" plus the part of nonmanufacturing that is surveyed annually.
9. Consists of forestry, fisheries, and agricultural services; medical services; professional services; social services and membership organizations; and real estate.
10. Procedures for preparing constant-dollar estimates are described in the September 1981
SURVEY. Estimates for the second quarter of 1984 have been revised to reflect new price deflators
based on revisions in the national income and product account data. To estimate real spending
plans, BEA adjusts the survey results for assumed price changes.

U.S. Affiliates of Foreign Companies:
Operations in 1982
(jTROWTH of U.S. affiliates slowed
significantly in 1982.x Affiliates' employment, one of the broadest measures of their activity, increased 1 percent, to 2,435,000, compared with a
19-percent increase in 1981 (table 1).
Total assets of affiliates, another
broad measure, increased 16 percent,
to $473.0 billion, compared with a 39percent increase in 1981 (table 2). The
slowdown was mainly a result of the
U.S. recession.
The 1981 and 1982 estimates of the
U.S.
affiliates' employment, total
assets, and other items presented in
this article were obtained by expanding to universe totals sample data collected in BEA's annual survey of foreign direct investment in the United
States. The previously published estimates for 1981 have been revised (see
the technical note); the estimates for
1982 are preliminary and will be revised next year.2
Because changes in employment are
not directly affected by inflation, they
tend to correspond more closely than
changes in total assets to growth in
real economic activity. For this

reason, the remainder of this article
will focus on changes in affiliate employment.
As a result of the U.S. recession,
many U.S. affiliates laid off employees in 1982. The all-affiliate total increased slightly because the employment added due to acquisitions of
U.S. companies by foreign direct investors more than offset the decreases
due to layoffs. A large portion of the
added employment was in retail
trade.
Employment of U.S. affiliates in
mining, petroleum, manufacturing,
and real estate declined. Except in
real estate, the declines occurred
mainly because layoffs were widespread and the employment added
due to acquisitions was small. In real
estate, the decline occurred mainly

Employment

1. A U.S. affiliate is a U.S. business enterprise in
which there is foreign direct investment—that is, in
which a single foreign person owns or controls, directly or indirectly, 10 percent or more of the voting securities if an incorporated business enterprise or an
equivalent interest if an unincorporated business enterprise. The estimates presented in this article cover
nonbank U.S. affiliates; selected data for bank affiliates are published by the Federal Reserve System in
the Federal Reserve Bulletin.

because a Canadian company sold its
minority interest in a major U.S. real
estate brokerage firm.
The largest decline in affiliate employment was in manufacturing
(61,000). Within manufacturing, employment declined in every major subindustry. Declines were particularly
large in chemicals (24,000), mainly industrial chemicals, and in machinery
(15,000), mainly construction machinery, industrial machinery, and electronic components.
Affiliate employment increased in
wholesale trade, retail trade, finance,
and "other" industries. The largest increase was in retail trade (46,000); it
mainly reflected the acquisition by
foreign investors of several sizable
U.S. retailers, including national jewelry store and fast food restaurant

manufacturing, and sales or closures
of supermarkets by a large grocery
store chain contributed significantly
to the decrease in that State. The
largest increase in affiliate employment was in Illinois (17,100). Acquisitions of an office equipment manufacturer and of a Chicago-based department store chain more than accounted for the increase.

Technical Note
The 1981 and 1982 universe estimates presented in this article were
derived from sample data reported in
BEA's annual survey of foreign direct
investment in the United States (the
BE-15). In the BE-15 survey, reports
were required from nonbank U.S. affiliates that had assets, sales, or net
income greater than $5 million or
that owned more than 1,000 acres of
U.S. land. The universe estimates
cover nonbank U.S. affiliates that had
assets, sales, or net income of $1 million or more or that owned 200 or
more acres of U.S. land; these were
the size criteria used to determine
which affiliates had to file complete
reports in the 1980 benchmark

28
survey, which is the basis for expanding the sample data reported in the
BE-15 survey to universe estimates.5
Data for nonsample affiliates—
those in the universe but not in the
current-year sample—were estimated.
The nonsample affiliates consisted of
affiliates (1) that were below the exemption levels for reporting in the
BE-15 survey; (2) that were required
to report but for some reason, did not;
or (3) that filed reports that could not
be processed in time to meet BEA's
publication schedule.
For the preliminary 1981 universe
estimates published a year ago, a simplified procedure was used to derive
estimates of data for nonsample affiliates.6 Since then, the estimating procedure has been refined. This refinement, together with corrections to the
data reported by the 1981 sample, resulted in revisions to 1981 universe
estimates. The new procedure, which
like the old one, estimates data both
for nonsample affiliates that were in
the universe in the prior year (previously existing affiliates) and for nonsample affiliates that entered the universe in the current year (new affiliates), is discussed below.
Previously existing affiliates
For each previously existing nonsample affiliate, each data item is estimated for the current year. The
item is calculated as the product of
two factors: (1) the prior-year data for
the affiliate and (2) the ratio of current- to prior-year data for a matched
sample of affiliates (those that reported in both the prior and current year)
that were in the same industry group
as the affiliate whose data are being
estimated and that had assets, sales,
or net income of less than $50 million.
The implicit assumption in this procedure is that, in a given industry
group, data for each nonsample affiliate changes at the same rate as data
for affiliates in the matched sample.
5. U.S. affiliates that did not meet these criteria
were also required to report in the benchmark survey,
but they filed partial reports containing only a few
key items of financial and operating data. Although
affiliates filing such partial reports were large in
number, the values reported by them for key items
were very small; taken together, they accounted for
0.6 percent or less of the values reported by all affiliates. Thus, affiliates that filed complete reports accounted for virtually all of the universe in terms of
value.
6. For a description of the procedure previously
used, see Howenstine, "U.S. Affiliates of Foreign Companies," p. 22.




SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

December 1984

The matched sample is restricted to
relatively small affiliates because
most of the nonsample affiliates are
also small. Ratios are calculated for
four industry groups—manufacturing;
wholesale trade; agriculture, forestry,
and real estate; and all other. These
four broad groups, rather than more
disaggregated industries, are used because, for some of the more disaggregated industries, the matched sample
would have consisted of only a few affiliates and the reliability of the re-

suiting ratios would have been questionable. If the calculated ratio is
biased by the data of one or two reporters, or is unrepresentative because of low coverage, it is adjusted
before being applied.
New affiliates
For new nonsample affiliates, estimates are separately derived for each
affiliate based on data they reported
in BEA's survey of new foreign direct

computed only for smaller affiliates
and only for two industry groups—agriculture, forestry, and real estate,
and all other. Separate ratios are
computed for the former group because a large percentage of the new
nonsample affiliates are in it and relationships among items for affiliates
in the group often differ significantly
from those for affiliates in other industries.
The procedure just described is not
used where other available information indicates that application of a
ratio would not produce meaningful
estimates. In these cases, the procedure used varies depending on the
item being estimated. For example,
most new nonsample affiliates are
small and do not engage in international trade. Thus, their exports and
imports are assumed to be zero and
are not estimated using the ratio procedure.

items, the universe estimates include
the BE-13 data, as reported, for nonsample affiliates. For items covered
by the BE-15 survey but not by the

product of two factors: (1) the one of




the five BE-13 items of the new affiliate that is most closely related to the
BE-15 survey item being estimated
and (2) the ratio of the item being estimated to the item in (1), as reported
in the BE-15 survey by affiliates that

Because most of the new nonsample

Table 4 shows, for both employment

by the 1982 sample data. At the allindustries, all-countries level, coverage is 91.9 percent for employment
and 93.5 percent for total assets. Coverage falls significantly below these
averages only in industry and country
cells where affiliates tend to be of
small average size (for example, in

nonresidents on U.S. investments
more than offset the effects of the
peaking of most U.S. short-term interest rates in July and August. Also
contributing to the dollar's appreciation were indications during the quarter that U.S. inflation would not accelerate and that economic activity in
key industrial countries was weaker
than expected, partly the result of
prolonged strikes in the United Kingdon and Germany earlier in the year.
Intervention to slow the dollar's
sharp advance against the German
mark was conducted by German and,
to a limited extent, United States
authorities in September.
On a trade-weighted quarterly average basis, the U.S. dollar appreciated
7 percent and 5 percent against the
currencies of 10 industrial and 22
OECD countries, respectively (chart
6, table C). The dollar appreciated 7
to 9 percent against the European
Monetary System currencies, 9 percent against the Swiss franc, 8 percent against the British pound, and 6

The dollar appreciated less than 2
percent against the Canadian dollar.
Merchandise trade
The merchandise trade deficit was
a record $33.1 billion in the third
quarter, compared with $25.8 billion
in the second. Imports increased $8.2
billion to $88.6 billion, and exports increased $0.9 billion to $55.5 billion.
Nonpetroleum imports increased
$8.7 billion, or 13 percent, to $74.2 billion. The increase was all in volume.
All major end-use commodity categories increased substantially, led by increases of $2.8 billion, or 21 percent,
in machinery; $1.9 billion, or 14 percent, in consumer goods; and $1.3 billion, or 8 percent, in nonpetroleum industrial supplies and materials. Only
a small part of the increase may have
been attributable to anticipation of
restrictions on textile and steel imports later in the year. (A tightening
of restrictions on textiles was announced by the U.S. Government in

August, and plans to negotiate limits
on certain categories of shipments
from steel-exporting countries were
announced in September.)
Cumulative dollar appreciation continued to be a major factor in the
growth of nonpetroleum imports. By
the third quarter, the dollar cost of
imports of manufactured goods had
increased only 6 percent over its 1980
quarterly average (chart 7). In contrast, the average producer price
index of manufactured goods in OECD
countries, excluding the United
States, had increased more than 30
percent. In the United States, the producer price index had increased 20
percent.
Petroleum imports decreased $0.4
billion, or 3 percent, to $14.5 billion.
The average number of barrels imported daily decreased to 5.67 million
from 5.76 million; the average price
per barrel was nearly unchanged at
$27.91.
Nonagricultural exports increased
$1.2 billion, or 3 percent, to $46.5 bil-

lion; volume increased 4 percent. A
$0.6 billion increase in exports of
automotive products to Canada was
largely related to strong sales in the
United States of large-size automobiles, many of which are assembled in
Canada. Most other major end-use
commodity
catetgories
increased
slightly. Nonagricultural exports continued to be restrained by the dollar's
cumulative appreciation. Although
the unit-value index of U.S. exports of
manufactured goods increased 21 percent from 1980 to the third quarter,
the foreign currency cost almost doubled (chart 7).
Agricultural exports decreased $0.2
billion, or 3 percent, to $9.0 billion;
volume increased 1 percent. The decrease, mostly to Western Europe,
partly reflected price decreases in soybeans, wheat, and corn. Supplies from
other exporting countries were ample,
and harvests in some importing countries were better than expected.
Increases in imports from Western
Europe, Japan, and newly industrialized countries in Asia more than accounted for the $7.3 billion increase

in the trade deficit. Imports from
those areas increased $2.5 billion, $2.8
billion, and $3.1 billion, respectively;
exports to them were nearly unchanged. Imports from Canada decreased $0.7 billion, and imports from
other areas increased $0.5 billion. Exports to Canada decreased $0.9 billion,
and exports to other areas, largely to
Latin America, increased $1.5 billion.
Service transactions
Net service receipts were $3.1 billion, a decrease of $0.2 billion from
the second quarter. Receipts increased
$1.8 billion to $36.2 billion. Payments
increased $2.1 billion to $33.1 billion.
Increases both in receipts and in payments of income on investments accounted for most of the changes.
Receipts of income on U.S. direct
investment abroad increased $0.8 billion to $5.4 billion. Capital losses
(largely currency-related) remained
large at $2.5 billion, but were $0.5 billion less than in the second quarter;
second-quarter losses had included a
large nonrecurring writeoff of an affiliate of a U.S. petroleum company.

Weak expansion in key European
countries and weak worldwide petroleum demand continued to restrain
growth in operating earnings of foreign affiliates. Earnings of nonpetroleum affiliates increased $0.5 billion,
and earnings of petroleum affiliates
increased $0.4 billion. Payments of
income on foreign direct investment
in the United States increased $0.3
billion to $3.0 billion.
Receipts on income on other private
investment increased $1.0 billion to
$15.7 billion, largely the result of
higher average interest rates for the
quarter. (Some interest arrears on
nonaccruing loans continued and are
reflected in the estimates.) Payments
on income increased $0.9 billion to
$10.7 billion, also due to higher average rates.
Receipts of income on U.S. Government assets decreased $0.1 billion to
$1.3 billion. Payments of income increased $0.3 billion to $5.1 billion.
Net travel payments increased $0.2
billion. Payments increased $0.1 billion to $4.1 billion. Further dollar appreciation continued to encourage

U.S. travel overseas, although the
rate of increase in the number of
travelers slowed from the second
quarter. Payments to Canada and
Mexico were nearly unchanged. Receipts decrease $0.1 billion to $2.8 billion. A decrease of $0.2 billion from
overseas and Canada was partly offset
by a $0.1 billion increase from Mexico
for travel in the border area and in
the U.S. interior. Passenger fare payments were unchanged at $1.7 billion,
and receipts decreased $0.2 billion to
$0.7 billion. Other transportation payments increased $0.4 billion to $3.9
billion, largely the result of increased
freight payments for merchandise imports. Other transporation receipts increased $0.2 billion to $3.6 billion, reflecting increased earnings from port
services.
Transfers under U.S. military sales
contracts were $2.7 billion, an increase of $0.2 billion. Increased deliveries to a number of countries were
partly offset by a decrease in deliveries to the Middle East. Direct defense expenditures were unchanged at
$3.0 billion.
Net unilateral transfers increased
to $2.8 billion from $2.2 billion, largely reflecting revisions in U.S. Government procedures under which appropriated grant funds are made available to foreign military sales customers.

U.S. assets abroad
U.S. reserve assets increased $0.8
billion in the third quarter, compared
with an increase of $0.6 billion in the
second. Foreign currency holdings increased $0.2 billion as the result of
limited intervention purchases of
German marks in September. The
U.S. reserve position in the International Monetary Fund and U.S. holdings of special drawing rights each increased $0.3 billion.
Claims on foreigners reported by
U.S. banks decreased $18.4 billion,
compared with an increase of $20.6
billion. The shift reflected a reversal
of large second-quarter interbank
transactions. In addition, low demand
for funds in many industrial countries
and some further small reduction in
U.S. banks' loan exposure abroad,
particularly in some developing countries, were contributing factors.
Claims on U.S. banks' own foreign of-

fices and on unaffiliated foreign
banks each decreased almost equally;
together, they accounted for nearly
all of the decrease in bank-reported
claims. Partly offsetting was a slight
increase in claims on foreign public
borrowers. The increase, largely in
claims on Latin America, was partly
related to an agreement between Argentina and the International Monetary Fund on a proposed austerity
program and to a rescheduling of
some external public debt of Mexico
and Venezuela.
The reversal of second-quarter
transactions dominated third-quarter
interbank developments. In the
second quarter, large withdrawals
from foreign banks, particularly from
foreign offices of U.S. banks, reflected
concerns over actual and potential
losses from substandard loans by a
few large U.S. banks. To offset those
withdrawals, unaffiliated foreign
banks borrowed heavily from U.S.
banks, and U.S. parent banks deposited funds in their foreign offices. In
the third quarter, as those concerns
abated, unaffiliated foreign banks
repaid some of the funds borrowed
from U.S. banks, and U.S. parent
banks withdrew some deposits from
foreign offices. In addition, large credits to foreign banks dropped sharply,
as merger-related corporate borrowing subsided and other U.S. loan
demand flattened.
Net U.S. purchases of foreign securities were $1.2 billion, compared with
$0.8 billion in the second quarter. The
increase was more than accounted for
by a $0.7 billion increase in net purchases of stocks, mainly in the United
Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Hong
Kong, where prices advanced sharply.
Net U.S. purchases of foreign bonds
were $0.5 billion, down from $0.8 billion. Foreign new issues in the United

States were only $0.9 billion—from
Canada, France, Finland, and the
Inter-American Development Bankfollowing extraordinarily large new
issues from Sweden in the previous
quarter. Redemptions were nearly unchanged at $0.7 billion, and transactions in outstanding bonds shifted to
small net purchases of $0.3 billion
from net sales of $0.7 billion.
Net inflows on U.S. direct investment abroad were $1.1 billion, compared with $2.1 billion. Net intercompany debt inflows were $3.6 billion,
down from $5.1 billion. Inflows from
Netherlands Antilles finance affiliates
decreased $2.0 billion to $1.5 billion—
about the same level of borrowing
that prevailed prior to the mergerdominated borrowing of the second
quarter (table D). Also, the repeal in
July of the 30-percent withholding tax
on interest earned by nonresidents on
U.S. investments may have led some
U.S. companies to issue Eurobonds directly to supplement or substitute for
borrowing through their finance affiliates (chart 8). Intercompany debt inflows from Western European affiliates increased $1.5 billion from less
than $0.1 billion. Most of the increase
reflected a shift to inflows from, trading company affiliates in Switzerland.
Equity capital outflows decreased $1.0
billion to less than $0.1 billion. Outflows to most areas decreased; a net
inflow from Japan was largely due to
the sale of a petroleum affiliate. Reinvested earnings were $2.5 billion,
compared with $2.0 billion.
Foreign assets in the United States
Foreign official assets in the United
States decreased $1.0 billion in the
third quarter, compared with a decrease of $0.3 billion in the second

tries decreased $2.7 billion, in contrast to an increase of $0.9 billion. Decreases largely reflected intervention
to support a few key currencies in exchange markets, as the dollar reached
record highs against many European
currencies in September. Assets of
OPEC members decreased $0.6 billion.
Although considerably less than the
previous quarter's $2.2 billion decrease, the third-quarter decrease was
the eighth consecutive quarterly decrease and reflected continued weakness in world petroleum markets.
Assets of other countries, particularly
several newly industrialized countries
in Asia, increased $2.3 billion, compared with a $0.9 billion increase.
U.S. liabilities to private foreigners
and international financial institutions reported by banks (excluding
U.S. Treasury securities) decreased
$3.9 billion, compared with an increase of $20.8 billion. The shift reflected a reversal of large secondquarter inflows from U.S. banks' foreign offices, mainly in the United
Kingdom and Caribbean, and a flattening of domestic loan demand. In
addition, financing needs for large-




scale mergers diminished. Partly offsetting the decrease was an increase
in liabilities to unaffiliated foreign
banks and other private foreigners.
Those inflows remained relatively
strong, despite the significant decline
in U.S. short-term rates by the end of
the quarter and despite the attractiveness of alternative long-term investments in the United States.
Net foreign purchases of U.S.
Treasury securities were $5.2 billion,
following record second-quarter purchases of $6.5 billion. Those purchases
partly reflected the continued preference of many foreign investors for
U.S. Treasury securities, although
concern about risks associated with
certificates of deposit as alternative
investments lessened.
Net foreign purchases of U.S. securities other than U.S. Treasury securities were $1.7 billion, compared with
$0.6 billion. Much of the increase was
due to the $1.9 billion in new bond
issues sold abroad by U.S. corporations—the first sizable amounts
issued directly in the Eurobond
market in 10 years (chart 8). A large
decline in long-term rates in the Eurobond market spurred U.S. corporations to raise capital, partly to replace
relatively expensive short-term bank
debt that had been incurred in the
first half of the year. Also, repeal of
the 30-percent withholding tax on interest earned by nonresidents on U.S.

investments permitted U.S. corporations to raise funds directly in Eurobond markets at the same, lower cost
as funds raised through Netherlands
Antilles finance affiliates.1 (Net funds
raised by Netherlands Antilles finance affiliates were about the same
in the third quarter as in the second,
after allowance is made for several
large merger-related transactions.)
Net foreign purchases of outstanding
corporate bonds and U.S. agency
bonds were $0.8 billion, compared
with $0.5 billion. Record net sales of
stocks of $1.0 billion by foreigners
were largely from Swiss accounts.
Inflows for foreign direct investment in the United States were $4.3
billion, compared with $8.8 billion. Intercompany debt inflows were $1.3
1. Interest on funds raised in Eurobond markets by
Netherlands Antilles finance affiliates and repatriated
to U.S. parents is not subject to U.S. withholding tax
requirements because of a United States-Netherlands
Antilles tax treaty. In addition, the Netherlands Antrilles has no withholding tax applicable to interest
payments to third countries. Thus, when U.S. companies wished to borrow funds in the Eurobond market,
it was advantageous to have Netherlands Antilles finance affiliates issue the bonds, which were usually
guaranted by the U.S. parent, and repatriate the
funds to the U.S. parent. With repeal of the 30-percent
withholding tax, Eurobonds may be issued directly by
the U.S. parent at the same cost, ceteris paribus, as
those issued through the Netherlands Antilles finance
affiliates. Although major U.S. corporations were able
to finance their operations by borrowing abroad at
lower rates than at home, this advantage was not
available to many smaller companies and to the U.S.
Government.

billion, compared with $4.4 billion;
the second-quarter inflow had been
boosted by a large loan to a U.S. subsidiary to purchase additional equity
in a U.S. company. Equity capital inflows were $1.8 billion, compared with
$3.3 billion. An inflow of $0.7 billion
from Canada was mainly for acquisitions, as were inflows of $0.4 billion
from Japan. There were no net inflows from Australia, after a $1.5 billion inflow in the previous quarter.
Inflows from Western Europe were
$0.6 billion, compared with $0.8 billion. Reinvested earnings were unchanged at $1.2 billion.




SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
Reconciliation of U.S.-Canadian
current-account statistics
Reconciliation of the 1983 bilateral
current-account statistics of the
United States and Canada and revision of the 1982 current-account reconciliation were completed in November 1984 (table E). The 1982 United
States and Canadian statistics were
fully reconciled. Full reconciliation of
the 1983 statistics was not possible because of differences in investment
income transactions that could not be
satisfactorily resolved at this time.

December 1984

Revisions in the U.S. international
transactions data based on the reconciliations with Canada will be incorporated in the published data in June
1985 as far as possible. Full substitution of the reconciled data for the previously published data is not possible
because U.S. transactions with other
areas would be affected.
Current-account reconciliations for
the years 1970-81 appear in the June
1975, September 1976, September
1977, December 1979, June 1981, December 1981, December 1982, and December 1983 issues of the SURVEY OF
CURRENT BUSINESS.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
Footnotes to U.S. International Transactions Tables 1-10

Table 1-2:
1. Credits, + : exports of goods and services: unilateral transfers to United States; capital inflows (increase in foreign assets (U.S. liabilities) or decrease in U.S. assets); decrease in U.S. official reserve assets.
Debits,—: imports of goods and services; unilateral transfers to foreigners; capital outflows (decrease in foreign assets (U.S. liabilities) or increase in U.S. assets); increase in U.S. official reserve
assets.
2. Excludes transfers of goods and services under U.S. military grant programs (see line 14).
3. Excludes exports of goods under U.S. military agency sales contracts identified in Census
export documents, excludes imports of goods under direct defense expenditures identified in
Census import documents, and reflects various other adjustments (for valuation, coverage, and
timing) of Census statistics to balance of payments basis; see table 3.
4. For all areas, amounts outstanding September 30, 1984, were as follows in millions of dollars:
line 34, 34,307; line 35, 11,097; line 36, 5,554; line 37, 11,619; line 38, 6,036.
5. Includes sales of foreign obligations to foreigners.
6. Consists of bills, certificates, marketable bonds and notes, and nonmarketable convertible
and nonconvertible bonds and notes.
7. Consists of U.S. Treasury and Export-Import Bank obligations, not included elsewhere, and
of debt securities of U.S. Government corporations and agencies.
8. Includes, primarily, U.S. Government liabilites associated with military sales contracts and
other transactions arranged with or through foreign official agencies; see table 4.
9. Consists of investments in U.S. corporate stocks and in debt securities of private corporations
and State and local governments.
10. Conceptually, the sum of lines 67 and 62 is equal to "net foreign investment" in the national income and product accounts (NIPA's). However, the foreign transactions account in the
NIPA's (a) includes adjustments to the international transactions accounts for the treatment of
gold, (b) excludes capital gains and losses of foreign affiliates of U.S. parent companies from the
NIPA's measure of income receipts from direct investment abroad, and from the corresponding
income payments and (c) beginning with 1973-IV, excludes shipments and financing of military
orders placed by Israel under Public Law 93-199 and subsequent similar legislation. Line 65 differs from "net exports of goods and services" in the NIPA's for the same reasons with the exception of the military financing, which is excluded, and the additional exclusion of U.S. Government interest payments to foreigners. The latter payments, for NIPA's purposes, are excluded
from "net exports of goods and services" but included with transfers in "net foreign investment."
A partial reconciliation table of the international accounts and the NIPA's foreign transactions
account appears in the "Reconciliation and other Special Tables" section in this issue of the
SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS.
11. Includes foreign currency denominated notes sold to private residents abroad. See table 9,
line B5, footnote 4.
Table 3:
1. Exports, Census basis represent transaction values, f.a.s. U.S. port of exportation; imports,
Census basis, represent Customs values. (See Technical Notes, June 1982 SURVEY.) The unadjusted figures for exports and imports shown in lines Al, A10, Dl, and D60, are as published by the
Census Bureau, as are the seasonally adjusted figures in lines Al and A10. The seasonally adjusted figures in line Dl and D60 are prepared by BEA and represent the summation of seasonally
adjusted 4-digit end-use categories (see Technical Notes in the June 1980 SURVEY) .
2. Adjustments in lines A5 and A14, B12, B46, and B80 reflect the Census Bureau's reconciliation of discrepancies in the merchandise trade statistics published by the United States and the
counterpart statistics published in Canada. These adjustments also have been distributed to the
affected end-use categories in section C.
3. Exports of military equipment under U.S. military agency sales contracts with foreign governments (line A6), and direct imports by the Department of Defense and the Coast Guard (line
A15), to the extent such trade is identifiable from Customs declarations. These exports are included in tables 1, 2, and 10, line 3 (transfers under U.S. military agency sales contracts); and the
imports are included in tables 1, 2, and 10, line 17 (direct defense expenditures).
4. Addition of electrical energy; deduction of exposed motion picture film for rental rather than
sale; net change in stock of U.S.-owned grains in storage in Canada; net timing adjustments for
goods recorded in Census data in one period but found to have been shipped in another; and coverage adjustments for special situations in which shipments were omitted from Census data.
5. Correction for discrepancy between sum of four quarters, seasonally adjusted, and the unadjusted annual totals, plus the difference between Census published seasonally adjusted totals and
the summation of seasonally adjusted 4-digit end-use categories.
6. Deduction of foreign charges for repair of U.S. vessels abroad, which are included in tables 1,
2, and 10, line 20 (other transportation); net timing adjustments for goods recorded in Census
data in one period but found to have been shipped in another; and coverage adjustments for special situations in which shipments were omitted from Census data.
7. Annual and unadjusted quarterly data shown in this table correspond to country and area
data in table 10, lines 2 and 16. Trade with international organizations includes purchases of nonmonetary gold from the IMF, transfers of tin to the International Tin Council (ITC), and sales of
satellites to Intelsat. The memoranda are defined as follows: Industrial countries: Western
Europe, Canada, Japan, and Austrailia, New Zealand, and South Africa: Members of OPEC: Venezuela, Ecuador, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Algeria, Libya, Nigeria, Gabon; Other countries: Eastern Europe, Latin American Republics, other
Western Hemisphere and other countries in Asia and Africa, less OPEC. Before 1984, complete
geographic area detail was not available for some balance of payments adjustments, e.g., timing.
Therefore, the new detail shown does not always sum to the values shown for the traditional area
aggregates, e.g., EC(10). For all years, "Asia" and "Africa" exclude certain Pacific Islands and
unidentified countries included in "Other countries in Asia and Africa."
8. The statistical identification of automotive products exports to Canada (line D47) is not as
complete and comprehensive as the identification of imports under the U.S.-Canada Automotive
Products Trade Act. However, the underestimation of automotive shipments to Canada due to
unidentified auto parts and unreported exports, amounting to about $2,484 million in 1983, has
been largely corrected in line C24.
9. Includes nuclear fuel materials and fuels.
Table 4:
1. Expenditures to release foreign governments from their contractual liabilities to pay for defense articles and services purchased through military sales contracts—first authorized (for
Israel) under Public Law 93-199, section 4, and subsequently authorized (for many recipients)
under similar legislation—are included in line A3. Deliveries against these military sales contracts are included in line CIO; see footnote 2. Of the line A3 items, part of these military expenditures is applied in lines A38 and A41 to reduce short-term assets previously recorded in lines
A36 and C8; this application of funds is excluded from lines C3 and C4. A second part of line A3
expenditures finances future deliveries under military sales contracts for the recipient countries
and is applied directly to lines A37 and C9. A third part of line A3, disbursed directly to finance
purchases by recipient countries from commercial suppliers in the United States, is included in
line A32. A fourth part of line A3, representing dollars paid to the recipient countries to finance
purchases from countries other than the United States, is included in line A43.
2. Transactions under military sales contracts are those in which the Department of Defense




December 1984

sells and transfers military goods and services to a foreign purchaser, on a cash or credit basis.
Purchases by foreigners directly from commercial suppliers are not included as transactions
under nr cary sales contracts. The entries for the several categories of transactions related to
militar .sales contracts in this and other tables are partly estimated from incomplete data.
3. The identification of transactions involving direct dollar outflows from the United States is
made in reports by each operating agency. Data for the third quarter 1984 are extrapolated estimates by BEA, because of incomplete reports from one operating agency.
4. Line A33 includes foreign currency collected as interest and line A38 includes foreign currency collected as principal, as recorded in lines A13 and A14, respectively.
5. Includes (a) advance payments to the Department of Defense (on military sales contracts)
financed by loans extended to foreigners by U.S. Government agencies and (b) the contraentry for
the part of line CIO which was delivered without prepayment by the foreign purchaser. Also includes expenditures of appropriations available to release foreign purchasers from liability to
make repayment.
6. Includes purchases of loans from U.S. banks and exporters and payments by the U.S. Government under commercial export credit and investment guarantee programs.
7. Excludes liabilities associated with military sales contracts financed by U.S. Government
grants and credits and included in line C2.
8. Includes receipts on short-term Commodity Credit Corporation assets financing U.S. merchandise exports.
Table 5:
1. Also included in line 4.
2. Acquisition of equity holdings in existing and newly established companies, capital contributions, capitalization of intercompany accounts, and other equity contributions.
3. Sales, liquidations, and other dispositions of equity holdings, total and partial.
4. Petroleum includes the exploration, development and production of crude oil and gas and the
transportation, refining and marketing of petroleum products exclusive of petrochemicals. Manufacturing excludes petroleum refining. "Other" industries includes mining; trade; banking; finance (except banking), insurance, and real estate; agriculture, forestry, and fishing; construction, transportation, communications, and public utilities; and services.
5. Also included in line 40.
Table 6:
1. Primarily provincial, regional, and municipal.
2. Largely transactions by International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD),
International Development Association (IDA), International Finance Corporation (IFC), Asian Development Bank (ADB), and Inter-American Development Bank (IDE).
3. Estimate for scheduled redemptions and identifiable early retirements. Includes estimates
based on Canadian statistics for redemptions of Canadian issues held in the United States. Unidentified and nonscheduled retirements appear in line 29.
4. Issues through finance affiliates established primarily to borrow capital from abroad. Issues
are almost always guaranteed by the establishing U.S. parent and are often covertible into the
parents' securities. To the extent proceeds are transferred from offshore affiliates to U.S. parents—the common practice—they are recorded as direct investment transactions in table 5, line
8.
Table 7:
1. Primarily mortgages, loans, and bills and notes drawn on foreigners.
2. Consists of Western Europe, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.
3. Bahamas, British West Indies (Cayman Islands), Netherlands Antilles, and Panama.

local governments and their agencies and corporations; and international and regional organizations.
2. U.S.-owned banks are mainly U.S.-chartered banks and Edge Act subsidiaries. U.S. brokers'
and dealers' accounts may be commingled in some categories. Foreign-owned banks include U.S.
branches and agencies of foreign banks and majority-owned bank subsidiaries in the United
States.

Table 9:
1. Negotiable certificates of deposit issued by banks in the United States are included in banks'
custody liabilities and are separately identified in memorandum line 8. Nonnegotiable certificates
of deposit are included in time deposits.
2. Includes borrowing under Federal funds or repurchase arrangements, deferred credits, and
liabilities other than deposits.
3. Mainly negotiable and readily transferable instruments, excluding U.S. Treasury securities.

14. Details not shown separately; see totals in lines 49 and 56.
15. Details not shown separately are included in line 61.

Constant-Dollar Inventories, Sales, and Inventory-Sales Ratios for Manufacturing and
Trade
Tables 1, 2, and 3 present constant-dollar inventories, sales, and inventory-sales ratios, respectively, quarterly and monthly. Table 4 presents
quarterly constant-dollar fixed-weighted inventory-sales ratios, i.e., ratios
obtained by weighting detailed industry ratios by 1972 sales. Table 5 pre-

sents monthly inventories for manufacturing by stage of fabrication.
Quarterly estimates for 1981:1 to 1984: II and monthly estimates for 1984
were published in the September 1984 SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS.

and Statistics at the Federal Reserve Board, Washington, D.C. 20551
t Composition of the money stock measures is as follows:
Ml.—This measure is currency plus demand deposits at commercial banks and interestearning checkable deposits at all depository institutions—namely NOW accounts, automatic transfer from savings (ATS) accounts, and credit union share draft balances—as well
as a small amount of demand deposits at thrift institutions that cannot, using present data
sources, be separated from interest-earning checkable deposits.
M2.—This measure adds to Ml overnight repurchase agreements (RP's) issued by commercial banks and certain overnight Eurodollars (those issued by Caribbean branches of
member banks) held by U.S. nonbank residents, money market mutual fund shares, and
savings and small-denomination time deposits (those issued in denominations of less than
$100,000) at all depository institutions. Depository institutions are commercial banks (including U.S. agencies and branches of foreign banks, Edge Act corporations, and foreign investment
companies), mutual savings banks, savings and loan associations, and credit unions.
M3.—This measure equals M2 plus large-denomination time deposits (those issued in denominations of $100,000 or more) at all depository institutions (including negotiable CD's) plus
term RP's issued by commercial banks and savings and loan associations.
L—This broad measure of liquid assets equals M3 plus other liquid assets consisting of
other Eurodollar holdings of U.S. nonbank residents, bankers acceptances, commercial
paper, savings bonds, and marketable liquid Treasury obligations.
$$ Includes ATS and NOW balances at all depository institutions, credit union share
draft balances, and demand deposits at thrift institutions.
O Overnight (and continuing contract) RP's are those issued by commercial banks to the
nonbank public, and overnight Eurodollars are those issued by Caribbean branches of member
banks to U.S. nonbank customers.
* New series. For "Other checkable deposits," see also note "$$" for this page.
@ Small time deposits are those issued in amounts of less than $100,000. Large time
deposits are those issued in amounts of $100,000 or more and are net of the holdings of
domestic banks, thrift institutions, the U.S. Government, money market mutual funds, and
foreign banks and official institutions.
