THE BUSINESS SITUATION
Larry R. Moran
prepared the first
section of this
article, and Daniel
Larkins prepared
the section on
corporate profits.

HE "FiNAi/'estimate of growth in real gross
± domestic product (GDP) for the third quarter of 1992 is 3.4 percent, 0.5 percentage point
lower than the "preliminary" estimate reported in
last month's SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS (table i).1 The downward revision was more than
accounted for by revisions in the change in business inventories and in net exports of goods and
services. Revised Census Bureau data for September was the major cause of these revisions; for
inventories, the downward revision was primarily
in wholesale and retail trade, and for net exports,
the revision was primarily the result of an upward
revision in merchandise imports. Residential
fixed investment and merchandise exports also
were revised downward, but only slightly; personal consumption expenditures was not revised;
and nonresidential fixed investment and government purchases—mostly Federal Government
purchases—were revised upward.
The "final" estimate for real gross domestic purchases showed a 4.i-percent increase, 0.2
percentage point lower than the "preliminary"
estimate.
(Unlike GDP, gross domestic purchases excludes exports of goods and services and
includes imports of goods and services.)
The "final" estimate for the fixed-weighted
price index for gross domestic purchases showed
an increase of 2.5 percent, the same as the "preliminary" estimate; the "final" estimate for the
fixed-weighted price index for GDP showed an increase of 2.1 percent, o.i percentage point lower
than the "preliminary" estimate.
i. Quarterly estimates in the national income and product accounts are
expressed at seasonally adjusted annual rates, and quarterly changes are differences between these rates. Quarter-to-quarter percent changes are anniialized.
Real, or constant-dollar, estimates are expressed in 1987 dollars and are based
on 1987 weights.

Looking Ahead...
• User's Guide. An updated "User's Guide to BEA Information" will appear in the January SURVEY. The guide will
contain descriptions of BEA'S programs, products, and services
as well as order information and forms.




Gross national product (GNP).—Real GNP increased 3.9 percent in the third quarter (table 2).
GNP equals GDP plus receipts of factor income
from the rest of the world less payments of factor income to the rest of the world. In the third
quarter, payments decreased more than receipts.

IVA Inventory valuation adjustment
CCAdj Capital consumption adjustment

About two-thirds of the decrease in payments was
in interest payments, and about one-third was in
profits of U.S. affiliates of foreign corporations.
In estimating real GNP, the current-dollar value
of exports of goods and services is deflated by
export prices, the current-dollar value of imports of goods and services is deflated by import
prices, and the current-dollar value of most factor
income is deflated by the implicit price deflator for net domestic product. In estimating
command-basis GNP—a measure of U.S. production in terms of its purchasing power—the
current-dollar value of exports of goods and services and receipts of factor income is deflated by
the implicit price deflator for imports of goods
and services and payments of factor income. In
the third quarter, command-basis GNP increased
more than GNP—4.7 percent, compared with 3.9
percent—reflecting an improvement in the terms
of trade. In the second quarter, commandbasis GNP had increased less than GNP—0.3
percent, compared with 0.7 percent—reflecting a
deterioration in the terms of trade.
Corporate Profits
Profits from current production—profits before tax (PBT) plus inventory valuation adjustment (IVA) and capital consumption adjustment
(ccAdj)—decreased $14.3 billion, to $374.1 billion,
in the third quarter after increasing $4.4 billion
in the second (table 3). Profits from the domestic operations of financial corporations decreased
$20.6 billion in the third quarter, reflecting the
effects of Hurricanes Andrew and Iniki. Profits from the domestic operations of nonfinancial
corporations increased $2.3 billion, reflecting an
increase in the real gross product of these corporations. Profits from the rest of the world
increased $4.1 billion.
Cash flow from current production, a profitsrelated measure of internally generated funds
available to corporations for investment, increased $9.5 billion after decreasing $1.2 billion.
The increase in cash flow, together with a small
decrease in (current-dollar) nonresidential fixed
investment, lifted cash flow as a percentage of
nonresidential investment to 90.7 percent from
88.8 percent.
Hurricanes Andrew and Iniki substantially reduced profits in the third quarter. Although
many of the effects of the hurricanes are embedded in the source data used to estimate profits
and thus cannot be easily estimated, some of the
effects are more apparent: Casualty insurance

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

losses of $60 billion were partly offset by about
$14 billion of reinsurance payments from foreign
insurers to domestic insurance companies.2
Profits by industry.—Profits in manufacturing increased $2.8 billion in the third quarter after
increasing $17.7 billion in the second.3 Manufacturers of electronic and other electric equipment and of "other" durable goods posted
the largest increases; most other manufacturers
posted decreases.
Profits in trade decreased $3.0 billion in the
third quarter after increasing $6.8 billion in
the second; the decrease was at the retail level
and was widespread. Profits in transportation
and public utilities decreased $1.6 billion after
decreasing $7.2 billion; most of the decrease
was accounted for by utilities, especially electric
utilities.
Profits from the rest of the world increased
$4.1 billion in the third quarter after decreasing $7.7 billion in the second. This component
2. The losses by insurance carriers are mainly reflected in profits of financial industries; however, the industry estimates of profits generally are
based on consolidated company reports, so profits of nonfinancial industries are also affected because some nonfinancial corporations own insurance
companies.
3. PBT with IVA is used as the measure of industry profits because
estimates of the ccAdj by industry are not available.




of profits measures receipts of profits from foreign affiliates of U.S. corporations less payments
of profits by U.S. affiliates of foreign corporations. Receipts increased $1.3 billion, reflecting
increased receipts from petroleum and manufacturing affiliates. Payments decreased $2.8 billion,
reflecting decreased payments by petroleum and
other nonmanufacturing affiliates.
PBT and related measures.—PBT decreased $22.7
billion in the third quarter. The difference
between this decrease and the $14.3 billion decrease in profits from current production reflects
changes in the IVA and in the ccAdj.
The IVA is an estimate of inventory profits with
the sign reversed. Inventory profits decreased $5.8
billion, reflecting a slowdown in the rate at which
prices of inventoried goods increased. The Producer Price Index, a major source for inventory
prices, slowed to a i.p-percent increase (annual
rate) in the third quarter from a 4.5-percent
increase in the second.
The ccAdj is the difference between the predominantly tax-based depreciation measure that
underlies PBT and BEA'S estimate of the consumption of fixed capital. The ccAdj increased $2.7
billion in the third quarter. S

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
GDP. 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 quarterly rates, whereas CBI is stated at annual rates.
2. Quarterly totals at monthly rates. Rnal sales of domestic business equals final sales of domestic product
less gross product of households and institutions and general government and includes a small amount of final
sales by farm.

NOTE.—The quantity and price indexes in this table are calculate from weighted averages of the detailed output
and prices used to prepare each aggregate and component. The fixed weighted measures use as weights the
composition of output in 1987. For the alternative indexes, the chain-type indexes with annual weights use weights
for the preceding and current years, and the indexes with benchmark-years weights use weights of 1959, 1963,
1967, 1972, 1977, 1982, and 1987 and the most recent year Percent changes from preceding period for selected

NOTE.—Except for disposable personal income, the quantity and price indexes in this table are calculated from
weighted averages of the detailed output and prices used to prepare each aggregate and component. The fixed
weighted measures use as weights the composition of output in 1987. For the alternative indexes, the chain-type
indexes with annual weights use weights for the preceding and current years, and the indexes with benchmarkyears weights use weights of 1959, 1963, 1967, 1972, 1977, 1982, and 1987 and the most recent year.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

Summary National Income and Product Series, 1929-91
TABLES 1-4 PRESENT summary series from the national income
and product accounts (NIPA'S): Tables i and 2 cover currentand constant-dollar gross domestic product (GDP) and its components, table 3 covers NIPA price indexes, and table 4 covers
national income and personal income. Revised estimates for
1929-58 are being published for the first time on a basis comparable with the estimates for 1959 forward that were released in
the December 1991 comprehensive NIPA revision.
Except for the fixed-weighted price indexes (FWPI'S) and the
GDP implicit price deflator, the annual estimates in these tables begin with 1929, the quarterly current-dollar estimates begin
with 1946, and the quarterly constant-dollar estimates begin with
1947. Annual and quarterly estimates beginning with 1959 are
shown for the FWPI'S for personal consumption expenditures
(PCE) by major type, for residential fixed investment, and for
government purchases by type, as well as for the GDP implicit
price deflator. (A forthcoming volume, National Income and
Product Accounts of the United States: Volume i, 1929-58, will include the FWPI for PCE by major type and the GDP implicit price
deflator back to 1929 for annual estimates and to 1947 for quarterly estimates. Volume 2, covering 1959-88, is already available;
for order information, see inside back cover.)
The FWPI'S for several NIPA aggregates—GDP, total fixed investment, nonresidential fixed investment, exports, imports, and
gross domestic purchases—are not published for periods before




1982. For these periods, the combination of the high level and
very rapid decline in the price index for computers and the large
1987 quantity weights for computers results in misleading measures of price change for components and aggregates that include
computer purchases.
These tables do not include the two alternative quantity and
price indexes that BEA introduced in the 1991 comprehensive
NIPA revision. These alternatives use the Fisher Ideal index formula to provide a measure of change between two periods. In
one alternative, the weights change each year; in the other, the
weights change each benchmark year—that is, at about 5-year
intervals. (Estimates for these alternatives for 1959-88 have been
published in National Income and Product Accounts of the United
States: Volume 2,1959-88.)
Tables i through 4 follow. E3
Data Availability
The full set of NIPA estimates for 1929 to the present—except
for the pre-1959 estimates of the alternative quantity and price
indexes—is now available on diskette and magnetic tape. For
order information, write to the National Income and Wealth Division (BE-54), Bureau of Economic Analysis, Washington, DC

NOTE.-GDP Gross domestic product; IPD Implicit price deflator; FWPI Rxed-weighted price index.
The fixed-weighted price indexes for GDP, total fixed investment, nonresidenfial fixed investment, exports, imports, and gross domestic purchases are not shown for periods before 1982 because for these periods the combination of the high level and very rapid decline of the
price index for computers and the large 1987 quantity weights for computers results in misleading measures of price change for components and aggregates that include computer purchases.

U.S. International Transactions,
Third Quarter1992
By Christopher L Bach

HE u.s. CURRENT-ACCOUNT deficit decreased
T
to $14.2 billion in the third quarter of 1992
from $17.8 billion (revised) in the second quar-

$17.1 billion in the third quarter, following an
outflow of $29.7 billion in the second.

ter (table A).1 Increases in the surpluses on
both services and investment income and a decrease in net unilateral transfers more than offset
an increase in the merchandise trade deficit.
Much of the increase in the services surplus was
attributable to losses recovered from foreign reinsurers for damage caused by Hurricanes Andrew
and Iniki.
Recorded capital transactions shifted to net
outflows of $2.9 billion in the third quarter from
net inflows of $47.5 billion in the second. Large
swings in bank-reported claims and liabilities
accounted for the shift.
The statistical discrepancy (errors and omissions in recorded transactions) was an inflow of

U.S. dollar in exchange markets
In the third quarter, the dollar depreciated 7 percent on a trade-weighted quarterly average basis
against the currencies of 10 industrial countries
and 4 percent against the currencies of 22 OECD
countries and 4 newly industrialized countries in
the Far East (table B, chart i). Steady depreciation in July and August was partly offset by
appreciation during the European currency crisis
in September.
During the first 2 months of the quarter,
the dollar depreciated, reflecting the same economic conditions that existed in the second
quarter: Interest-rate differentials against dollar
assets widened further, as U.S. short-term rates
fell faster than European rates (chart 2); slow
economic growth in the United States continued,

i. Quarterly estimates of U.S. current- and capital-account components
are seasonally adjusted when significant seasonal patterns are present. The
accompanying tables present both adjusted and unadjusted estimates.

the German economy was slowing. In August,
the dollar continued to depreciate, particularly
against the German mark. Concerted central
bank intervention on two occasions did little to
interrupt the decline of the dollar, which approached 1991 lows against the German mark by
the end of the month.
During September, pressures against the dollar ceased temporarily as most attention focused
on the mark and its relationship to other currencies in the Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM)
of the European Monetary System (EMS) and be-

with prospects for a significant pickup uncertain; and evidence accumulated that industrial
countries abroad, including both Germany and
Japan, were experiencing substantial slowdowns
in economic growth.
In response to the slow U.S. economic growth,
the Federal Reserve eased monetary policy in
early July, and market participants expected further easing in the absence of a stronger recovery.
Meanwhile, rapid monetary growth in Germany
led the Bundesbank to tighten monetary policy in mid-July, despite evidence suggesting that

tween the EMS and those currencies linked to
the EMS through the European Currency Unit
(ECU). Market participants began to question
the relationship among currencies when disparities in interest rates and monetary policies and
uncertainties about the current status of monetary unification led to a crisis in confidence.
Consequently, a currency crisis ensued, leading to European central bank interventions of
unprecedented size, large changes in interestrate differentials within Europe, a small cut in
German official interest rates, two currency realignments, and the suspension of the pound
sterling and the Italian lira from the ERM. The
French franc came under pressure, but it stabilized amid intervention purchases of francs and
a rise in French interest rates. Outside the EMS,
severe pressures developed on the Nordic currencies, resulting in sizable market interventions
and considerable increases in short-term interest rates, particularly in Sweden. The Finnish
markka's peg to the ECU was also suspended.
Initially, the dollar was not directly involved in
the crisis, as most of the pressures were among
European currencies. However, during the middle weeks of September, the dollar appreciated
as dollar investors sought refuge from European
currencies, and European financial intermediaries sold marks to meet the demand for dollars.
Once the pressures subsided late in September,
the dollar depreciated toward the levels of late
August, particularly against the German mark.

Fluctuations of the dollar against the Japanese
yen in August and September were narrower than
against the German mark, with the dollar gradually depreciating to a historical low against the
yen at the end of the quarter. Dollar depreciation against the yen in mid-September reflected
some repatriation of capital by Japanese companies with the approach of the fiscal half-year close
on September 30, some inflows to Japan in response to a sharp rebound in the Japanese stock
market, and some flows into yen-denominated
assets in response to developments in the EMS.
The dollar was little changed during the quarter
against the currencies of the newly industrialized
'countries in the Far East.

Merchandise trade
The merchandise trade deficit increased to $26,5
billion in the third quarter from $24.6 billion in
the second. The increase resulted from a larger
increase in imports than in exports.
Exports.—Exports increased $3.3 billion, or 3 percent, to $110.8 billion in the third quarter; volume
increased 4 percent. Nonagricultural exports
accounted for two-thirds of the current-dollar
increase.
Nonagricultural exports increased $2.2 billion,
or 2 percent, to $99.2 billion in the third quarter; volume increased 3 percent (table C, chart 3).

There were sizable increases in industrial supplies
and materials, in consumer goods, and in automotive products. Capital goods excluding civilian
aircraft continued to exhibit steady growth, led
by computers and parts, semiconductors, and
telecommunications equipment. However, this
growth was virtually offset by a sharp drop in
civilian aircraft, leading to little change in total
capital goods exports for the quarter. The decline in the value of the dollar since mid-ippi has
probably encouraged U.S. exports, particularly
nonagricultural exports. However, that stimulative effect has been tempered by slower economic
growth in industrial countries abroad. For the
first 3 quarters of 1992 (at a seasonally adjusted
annual rate), the pace of expansion in capital
goods exports was just one-half the pace for the
year 1991. Most of the slowdown was in capital goods to Western Europe and Japan. Capital
goods have continued to show strength to Latin
America and to "other" countries in Asia and
Africa, where growth has not slowed as much
and the demand for capital goods has remained
strong, though weaker than in 1991. Industrial
supplies and materials have also slowed sharply,
as a result of only small increases in building
materials and paper products and decreases in
chemicals, energy products, and metals over 1991.
Consumer goods have increased at about the
same pace as in 1991.
Agricultural exports increased $1.1 billion, or
11 percent, to $11.6 billion in the third quarter
of 1992; volume increased 12 percent. In current dollars, soybeans, after declining in the three
previous quarters, increased to a record high
and accounted for more than one-half of the increase. The increase in soybean exports was the
result of (i) European, Canadian, and Chinese
rapeseed harvests that were considerably smaller,
thereby increasing the demand for oilseeds, and
(2) concerns that the U.S.-European Community conflict over agricultural trade subsidies

December 1992 • 41

would reduce the availability of soybeans, leading
European importers to accelerate purchases.
Imports.—Imports increased $5.3 billion, or 4
percent, to $137.4 billion in the third quarter;
volume increased 3 percent. Three-fourths of
the current-dollar increase was accounted for by
nonpetroleum imports.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

Nonpetroleum imports increased $4.0 billion,
or 3 percent, to $123.1 billion in the third quarter; volume also increased 3 percent (table C,
chart 3). Nearly all of the increase in current
dollars was accounted for by consumer goods,
which have risen strongly since early 1991, and
by capital goods, which have risen strongly for
several years. By area, the largest increases in
consumer goods were from China and Japan, and
the largest increases in capital goods were from
the newly industrialized countries in the Far East
and Japan.
For the first three quarters of 1992 (at a seasonally adjusted annual rate), imports of both
consumer goods and capital goods have accelerated substantially over the year 1991, with these
two categories accounting for nearly two-thirds
of the step-up in nonpetroleum imports. Both
have been encouraged by the gradual pickup in
the U.S. economy. Capital goods from the newly
industrialized countries in the Far East (mainly
computers, peripherals, and parts, semiconductors, and communications equipment) have accounted for more than one-half of the step-up
in total capital goods in 1992 over 1991. Capital goods from Western Europe and Japan have
also accelerated in 1992. Consumer goods have
increased even more strongly than capital goods,
dominated by the step-up from China, other
developing countries in Asia, and the newly industrialized countries in the Far East. China
now accounts for 18 percent of consumer goods
imports, up from 11 percent early in 1991.
Petroleum imports increased $1.3 billion, or 10
percent, to $14.2 billion in the third quarter of
1992. Both prices and volume increased. The
average price per barrel increased to $18.55 from
$17.47. The average number of barrels imported
daily increased to 8.39 million from 8.10 million.
Consumption and inventories increased, while
domestic production decreased.
Balances by area.—The deficit with the developing countries increased in the third quarter of
1992, while the deficit with the industrial countries decreased. The deficit with the developing
countries increased $3.5 billion, to $15.1 billion,
as a result of increases in the deficits with China
and with the newly industrialized countries in the
Far East; an increase in the surplus with Latin
America was partly offsetting. The deficit with
the industrial countries decreased $1.4 billion, to
$12.4 billion; the deficit with Canada decreased,
that with Western Europe increased, and that
with Japan was unchanged.

For the first three quarters of 1992 (at a seasonally adjusted annual rate), the deficit increased
to $91.2 billion from $73.4 billion for the year
1991. Nearly three-fourths of the increase was accounted for by an increase in the deficit with the
industrial countries; this deficit increased $12.4
billion, to $45.3 billion, mostly as a result of a decrease in the surplus with Western Europe. The
deficits with Japan and Canada increased by only
small amounts. The deficit with the developing
countries increased $4.9 billion, to $48.6 billion;
a large increase in the deficit with countries in
Asia was partly offset by a large increase in the
surplus with Latin America.
Service transactions
The surplus on service transactions increased to
$15.6 billion in the third quarter from $12.6 billion
in the second. Receipts increased to $44.5 billion from $44.1 billion, and payments decreased
to $28.9 billion from $31.5 billion.
Travel receipts decreased slightly to $13.4 billion; these receipts have changed little for several quarters, as the slowdown in industrial
economies abroad has restrained overseas travel
to the United States. Travel payments were
unchanged at $10.9 billion.
Passenger fare receipts increased slightly to $4.2
billion, and passenger fare payments decreased
slightly to $2.9 billion.
Other transportation receipts increased slightly
to $6.2 billion. Other transportation payments
increased to $6.0 billion from $5.7 billion as
a result of higher freight and port expenditure
' payments.
Other private service receipts increased to $12.7
billion from $12.4 billion. Other private service
payments dropped sharply to $4.2 billion from
$6.8 billion, largely as a result of losses recovered
from foreign reinsurers for damage caused by
Hurricanes Andrew and Iniki in late August and
mid-September. (The full amount of recoveries
are recorded on an accrual basis when disasters
occur, rather than when claims are presented to
the insurance companies.)
Transfers under U.S. military sales contracts
decreased slightly to $2.7 billion, and direct
defense expenditures abroad decreased to $3.2
billion from $3.4 billion.
Investment income
The surplus on investment income increased to
$3.6 billion in the third quarter from $1.9 billion
in the second. Receipts of income on U.S. assets abroad decreased to $27.8 billion from $28.5

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
billion, but this decrease was exceeded by a drop
in payments of income on foreign assets in the
United States to $24.2 billion from $26.5 billion.
Direct investment income.—Receipts of income on
U.S. direct investment abroad edged up $0.2 billion in the third quarter to $13.3 billion. Over the
first three quarters of 1992 (at a seasonally adjusted annual rate), receipts have increased only
slightly, but they are up 7 percent from receipts
in 1991. Whereas the slowdown in industrial
economies abroad has held down the rise in receipts, depreciation of the dollar since mid-1991
has raised reported receipts.
Payments of income on foreign direct investment in the United States decreased to $0.4
billion from $1.1 billion. The decrease was more
than accounted for by an increase in operating
losses by petroleum affiliates of European parents and by banking affiliates of Japanese parents;
manufacturing earnings increased. The rise in
manufacturing earnings since mid-i99i and so
far in 1992 has led to a swing in total income
payments to gains of $0.8 billion at a seasonally
adjusted annual rate in 1992 from losses of $3.7
billion in 1991. This swing is partly attributable
to the gradual pickup in the U.S. economy.
Portfolio investment income.—Receipts of income
on other private investment abroad decreased to
$12.5 billion in the third quarter from $13.8 billion in the second, and payments of income on
other private investment in the United States decreased to $14.1 billion from $15.7 billion. Both
receipts and payments were reduced by sharply
falling interest rates. Receipts of income on U.S.
Government assets increased to $1.9 billion from
$1.6 billion, and payments of income on U.S.
Government liabilities increased slightly to $9.8
billion.
Unilateral transfers
Net unilateral transfers decreased to $6.9 billion in the third quarter from $7.8 billion
in the second. U.S. Government grants accounted for much of the decrease; disbursements dropped, and there were no receipts from
coalition partners in Operation Desert Storm.
Capital Account
Recorded capital transactions shifted to net outflows of $2.9 billion in the third quarter from
net inflows of $47.5 billion in the second. Large
changes both in U.S. assets abroad and in foreign
assets in the United States accounted for the shift.




December 1992 •

17.S. assets abroad

U.S. assets abroad increased $20.2 billion in the
third quarter, following no change in the second. Large inflows on U.S. bank-reported claims
shifted to a small outflow, and outflows for U.S.
purchases of foreign securities increased.
U.S. official reserve assets.—U.S. official reserve
assets decreased $2.0 billion in the third quarter,
following a $1.5 billion decrease in the second.
Holdings of German marks decreased in the third
quarter, both as a result of an ongoing program
with German monetary authorities to reduce U.S.
holdings through a series of off-market transactions and as a result of U.S. intervention in
the foreign exchange markets. Both activities
occurred in the first 2 months of the quarter.
Claims reported by banks.—U.S. claims on foreigners reported by U.S. banks increased $0.4
billion in the third quarter. There were large,
nearly offsetting movements within the total:
Banks' own claims payable in dollars and foreign currencies decreased $12.2 billion, while
banks' domestic customers' claims increased $12.6
billion.
Banks' own claims on foreigners payable in
dollars were sharply reduced by $26.4 billion in
the third quarter, as banks scaled back their
interoffice claims with financial centers in the
Caribbean and the United Kingdom in July and
August. This scaling back in claims was approximately matched by reductions in liabilities on
the same financial centers. In part, these reductions reflected continued restraint on the demand
for bank credit abroad due to slowing economic
growth and to the attractiveness of bonds as an
alternative to bank credit, given the substantial
declines in long-term interest rates over the past
2x/2 years. These sharp reductions in claims were
partly offset by strong demand for funds from
banks in Japan to improve asset quality, to meet
accounting requirements for the fiscal half-year
close, and to meet credit demands in response to
developments in the European Monetary System
(EMS).
Banks' own claims payable in foreign currencies increased $14.2 billion in the third quarter.
This surge in demand for currencies by Japan
and Western Europe, part of which was probably related to the European currency crisis in
September, was met by matched borrowing of
currencies from abroad.
Banks' domestic customers' claims increased
$12.6 billion. The increase was more than ac-

counted for by an increase in negotiable and
readily transferable instruments, largely U.S.
money market mutual funds' purchases of newly
issued certificates of deposit by foreign banks in
the United Kingdom.

Net U.S. purchases of foreign bonds were $5.5
billion in the third quarter, unchanged from the
second. Foreign new issues in the United States
increased to $7.3 billion from $5.4 billion, reaching a level second to that attained in the first
quarter of 1990, when there was a large restructuring of Latin American debt. Issuers were
attracted by a 3O-basis-point decline in U.S. interest rates at a time when most European rates were
up 10-20 basis points and by the absence of the
currency instability that plagued the European
capital markets. New issues by foreign private
corporations increased more than 50 percent to
$3.8 billion.

Foreign securities.—Net U.S. purchases of foreign securities increased $5.9 billion in the third
quarter to a record $14.1 billion. U.S. investors
resumed their heavy net purchases of foreign
stocks, while net purchases of foreign bonds were
unchanged.
Net U.S. purchases of foreign stocks were $8.6
billion in the third quarter, more than triple
the net purchases of $2.8 billion in the second.
Purchases, which were strong throughout the
quarter, may have been boosted late in the quarter when U.S. mutual and pension funds moved
heavily into foreign stocks. Net purchases from
Western Europe, much of which were from the
United Kingdom, were $6.4 billion, up from $0.2
billion. British transactions included a large single new issue in July. Purchases from France
were strong in July but tapered off sharply in
August and September among concerns about
the relationship between the French and German currencies and about the sharp drop in the
French stock market. Purchases from Switzerland were strong in September, when investors
sought an alternative to the weak German stock
market. Net purchases from Japan were $1.6 billion, up from $0.3 billion; purchases were strong
in all 3 months but were especially heavy in August, when the Japanese Government announced
a stimulative program of increased Federal expenditures and aid to banks suffering from poorly
performing real estate loans.

Direct investment.—Net capital outflows for U.S.
direct investment abroad edged up to $7.2 billion
in the third quarter from $7.0 billion in the second. The increase resulted from a $0.9 billion
increase in reinvested earnings, which was partly
offset by decreases of $0.7 billion in intercompany
debt outflows and $0.1 billion in equity capital
outflows.
Foreign assets in the United States
Foreign assets in the United States increased $17.3
billion in the third quarter, down sharply from
an increase of $47.4 billion in the second. A large
shift to a decrease in foreign official assets accounted for the slowdown. Inflows into private
assets were about unchanged.
Foreign official assets.—Foreign official assets in
the United States decreased $7.7 billion in the
third quarter, following an increase of $20.9 billion in the second (table D). Large decreases
in foreign holdings of both U.S. Treasury securities and bank deposits in September more

than accounted for the decrease. The September
transactions were concentrated among industrial
countries and were probably related to the crisis
in the European currency markets.
Liabilities reported by banks.—Liabilities reported
by U.S. banks to private foreigners and international financial institutions, excluding U.S.
Treasury securities, increased $19.9 billion in the
third quarter.
Banks' own liabilities payable in dollars increased $4.4 billion in the third quarter. U.S.owned banks sharply reduced their liabilities
to Caribbean financial centers, reflecting a major scaling back of interoffice liabilities in July
and August; this scaling back was approximately
matched by a similar-sized reduction in claims on
the same financial centers. These reductions with
the Caribbean were partly offset by a small increase in borrowing in September to meet a slight
pickup in loan demand in the United States. In
contrast, foreign-owned (mostly Japanese) banks
borrowed heavily from overseas for several reasons. First, largely in August, foreign-owned
banks in the United States borrowed from abroad
to fund a pickup in U.S. loan demand that
was created when a few large U.S. corporations
switched their borrowing to the bank credit market from the commercial paper market. Second,
throughout September, Japanese-owned banks in
the United States borrowed from abroad to fund
parent banks in Japan to improve asset quality,
to meet accounting requirements for the fiscal
half-year close, and to fund credit demands in
response to developments in the EMS. Third, to
meet temporary funding requirements, foreignowned banks substituted overnight borrowing
from the Eurodollar markets for funds previously
obtained in the U.S. federal funds market.
Banks' own liabilities payable in foreign currencies increased $14.4 billion in the third quarter.
Most of the borrowing was to meet demand for
foreign currencies in Japan and Western Europe,
part of which was probably related to the European currency crisis in September. These inflows
were matched by a similar-sized outflow in banks'
own claims payable in foreign currencies.
U.S. Treasury securities.—Net foreign purchases
of U.S. Treasury securities fell sharply to $5.4 billion in the third quarter from $10.3 billion in
the second. A drop in U.S. interest rates relative to foreign rates and the dollar's weakness
against European currencies throughout most of
the quarter led to large net sales by international
investment funds in the Caribbean and by conti-




December 1992 •

nental European countries. Partly offsetting these
net sales were Japanese net purchases throughout
the quarter, reflecting in part a shift in holdings from U.S. agency bonds to U.S. Treasury
securities, and British net purchases in August.
Other U.S. securities.—Net foreign purchases of
U.S. securities other than U.S. Treasury securities
dropped sharply to $3.1 billion from $10.3 billion. Net sales of U.S. stocks accelerated, while
net purchases of U.S. bonds slowed.
Net foreign sales of U.S. stocks accelerated to
$4.0 billion from $1.5 billion. The sluggish pace
of expansion in the United States, low consumer
and business confidence levels, and high unemployment levels overshadowed unexpectedly good
corporate earnings. Sales by the United Kingdom
were due partly to profit taking as the dollar appreciated over the pound early in the quarter and
partly to the sharp rebound in British stock prices
and repatriation of assets after the United Kingdom suspended its participation in the European
Exchange Rate Mechanism. Swiss, German, and
Canadian investors all shifted from net purchases
to net sales.
Net foreign purchases of U.S. bonds slowed
to $7.1 billion from $11.8 billion. New issues
sold abroad by U.S. corporations dropped to $5.5
billion from $7.1 billion but remained relatively
strong. The Eurobond market was shaken by
many of the same fears that affected all European
capital markets—namely, concerns about monetary unification, exchange-rate relationships both
before and during the currency crisis, and the
course of monetary policies. Consequently, newissue activity declined despite a faster drop in
Eurobond rates than in U.S. long-term rates. The
share of new issues denominated in dollars increased to 63 percent from 52 percent, partly as a
result of the currency instabilities within Europe.
Net foreign purchases of U.S. agency bonds
dropped sharply to $1.1 billion from $5.0 billion, as Japanese investors sold agency bonds in
exchange for U.S. Treasury issues.
Direct investment.—Foreign direct investment in
the United States shifted to net outflows of $3.4
billion in the third quarter from net inflows of
$5.3 billion in the second. Most of the shift
was accounted 'for by intercompany debt, which
shifted to net outflows of $2.3 billion from net
inflows of $4.0 billion. Equity capital inflows
decreased to $2.0 billion from $4.2 billion. Reinvested earnings decreased to -$3.0 billion from
—$2.9 billion.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
FOOTNOTES TO U.S. INTERNATIONAL TRANSACTIONS TABLES 1-1O
General notes for all tables:
' Revised. * Preliminary. 'Less than $500,000 (±)
n.a. Not available.
D
Suppressed to avoid disclosure of data of individual companies.

Table 1:
1. Credits, +: Exports of goods, services, and income; 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; increase in foreign
official assets in the United States.
Debits, -: Imports of goods, services, and income; 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; decrease in foreign
offical assets in the United States.
2. 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 2.
3. Includes some goods: Mainly military equipment in line 4; major equipment other materials, supplies, and
petroleum products purchased abroad by U.S. military agencies in line 18; and fuels purchased by airline and steamship
operators in lines 7 and 21.
4. Includes transfers of goods and services under U.S. military grant programs.
5. Beginning in 1982, these lines are presented on a gross basis. The definition of exports is revised to exclude
U.S. parents' payments to foreign affiliates and to include U.S. affiliates' receipts from foreign parents. The definition
of imports is revised to include U.S. parents' payments to foreign affiliates and to exclude U.S. affiliates' receipts from
foreign parents.
6. Beginning in 1982, the 'other transfers" component includes taxes paid by U.S. private residents to foreign
governments and taxes paid by private nonresidents to the U.S. Government.
7. For all areas, amounts outstanding Sept. 30,1992, were as follows in millions of dollars: Line 34,74,207; line
35,11,060; line 36,11,561; line 37,9,261; line 38,42,325. Data are preliminary.
8. Includes sales of foreign obligations to foreigners.
9. Consists of bills, certificates, marketable bonds and notes, and nonmarketable convertible and nonconvertible
bonds and notes.
10. Consists of U.S. Treasury and Export-Import Bank obligations, not included elsewhere, and of debt securities of
U.S. Government corporations and agencies.
11. Includes, primarily, U.S. Government liabilities associated with military agency sales contracts and other
transactions arranged with or through foreign official agencies; see table 4.
12. Consists of investments in U.S. corporate stocks and in debt securities of private corporations and State and
local governments.
13. Conceptually, the sum of lines 69 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) includes adjustments for the different geographical treatment of
transactions with U.S. territories and Puerto Rico, and (c) includes services furnished without payment by financial pension
plans, except life insurance carriers and private noninsured pension plans. A reconciliation of the balance on goods
and services from the international accounts and the NIPA net exports appears in the "Reconciliation and Other Special
Tables" section in this issue of the SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS. A reconciliation of the other foreign transactions in the
two sets of accounts appears in table 4.5 of the full set of NIPA tables (published annually in the July issue of the SURVEY).
Table 2:
1. Exports, Census basis, represent transactions values, f.a.s. U.S. port of exportation; imports, Census basis,
represent Customs values (see Technical Notes in the June 1982 SURVEY). Unadjusted data are as published by the
Bureau of the Census. Seasonally adjusted data reflect the application of seasonal factors developed jointly by Census
and BEA, and are the same totals except for six series which use quarterly factors; these series are not seasonally
adjusted by Census (see Technical Notes in the June 1991 SURVEY).
2. Beginning in 1990, the Census Bureau replaced its compiled export statistics with counterpart Canadian import
statistics. Similarly, Statistics Canada replaced its compiled export statistics with counterpart U.S. import statistics. This
exchange of data has eliminated the need for the inland freight adjustment on U.S. exports, but not on U.S. imports.
3. Adjustments in lines A5 and A13, B12, B47, and B82 reflect the Census Bureau's reconciliation of discrepancies
between the merchandise trade statistics published by the United States and the counterpart statistics published in
Canada. These adjustments are distributed to the affected end-use categories in section C.
4. 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 A14), to the extent such trade is identifiable from
Customs declarations. The exports are included in tables 1 and 10, line 4 (transfers under U.S. military agency sales
contracts); the imports are included in tables 1 and 10, line 18 (direct defense expenditures).
5. 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; coverage adjustments for special situations in which shipments were
omitted from Census data; deduction of the value of repairs and alterations to foreign-owned equipment shipped to the
United States for repair; and the inclusion of fish exported outside of U.S. customs area.
6. Deduction of foreign charges for repair of U.S. vessels abroad, which are included in tables 1 and 10, line 21
(other transportation); coverage adjustments tor special situations in which shipments were omitted from Census data;
and the deduction of the value of repairs and alterations to U.S.-owned equipment shipped abroad for repair.
7. Beginning in 1986, New Zealand and South Africa are included in "Other countries in Asia and Africa," with New
Zealand included as part of "Asia" and South Africa as part of "Africa."
8. 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 International Monetary
Fund, 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, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa; Members
of OPEC: Venezuela, Ecuador, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Algeria, Libya,
Nigeria, and Gabon; Other countries: Eastern Europe, Latin America and Other Western Hemisphere, and other countries
in Asia and Africa, less OPEC. For all years, "Asia" and "Africa" exclude certain Pacific Islands and unidentified countries
included in "Other countries in Asia and Africa."

organizations in the United States. Payments (imports) include mainly wages of foreign residents temporarily employed
in the United States and Canadian and Mexican commuters in U.S. border areas.
Table 4:
1. Expenditures to release foreign governments from their contractual liabilities to pay for military goods 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 C10; see footnote 2. Of the line A3 items, part of these military expenditures
is applied in lines A40 and A43 to reduce short-term assets previously recorded in lines A38 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 A39 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
A34. 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 A45.
2. Transactions under military sales contracts are those in which the Department of Defense 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 military sales contracts. The entries for the several categories
of transactions related to military 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.
4. Line A35 includes foreign currency collected as interest and line A40 includes foreign currency collected as
principal, as recorded in lines A13 and A14, respectively.

UC.Lg.U Cyclical indicator series are classified as L (leading), C (coincident), Lg (lagging), or U (unclassified) at reference cycle peaks, troughs, and overall. Series classifications
are shown in parentheses following the series titles.
$ Cyclical indicator series denoted by i are inverted (i.e., the sign is reversed) for cyclical analysis calculations, including classifications, contributions to composite indexes,
and current high values.
t Cyclical indicator series denoted by t are smoothed by an autoregressive-moving-average filter developed by Statistics Canada.
For information on composite indexes and other concepts used in this section, see "Composite Indexes of Leading, Coincident, and Lagging Indicators" in the November 1987
SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS and "Business Cycle Indicators: Revised Composite Indexes" in the January 1989 SURVEY.
References to series in this section use the prefix "BCI-" followed by the series number. Unless otherwise noted, series are seasonally adjusted.
Percent Change data are centered within the spans: 1-month changes are placed in the ending month, 3-month changes are placed in the 3d month, 6-month changes are
placed in the 4th month, 1-quarter changes are placed in the ending quarter, and 4-quarter changes are placed in the 3d quarter.
Diffusion indexes are defined as the percent of components rising plus one-half of the percent of components unchanged. Diffusion index data are centered within the spans:
1-month indexes are placed in the ending month and 6-month indexes are placed in the 4th month.
High values reached by cyclical indicators since the last reference cycle trough (March 1991) are shown in boldface type; high values reached prior to the period shown in the
table are listed at the bottom of each page. For inverted series, low values are indicated as highs.
Sources for series in this section are shown on pages C-47 and C-48 in the October 1992 SURVEY.

1. Balance of payments basis: Excludes transfers under military grants and Department of Defense
sales contracts (exports) and Department of Defense purchases (imports).
2. Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
3. This index is the weighted-average exchange value of the U.S. dollar against the currencies of
the other G-10 countries plus Switzerland. Each country is weighted by its 1972-76 global trade. For a
description of this index, see the August 1978 Federal Reserve Bulletin (p. 700).
4. This index is compiled by the Center for International Business Cycle Research (CIBCR), Graduate
School of Business, Columbia University, New York, NY 10027.
5. For an explanation of this index, see The Composite Index of Coincident Indicators and Alternative
Coincident Indexes" in the June 1992 SURVEY.

Notes for Pages C-7 Through C-24
The following notes explain general features of the charts that appear in this section:
• Business cycle peaks (P) and troughs (T), as designated by the National Bureau of Economic
Research, Inc., are indicated at the top of each chart. The shaded areas represent recessions.
• For each series classified as a cyclical indicator, the timing classifications at peaks, at
troughs, and overall are shown in a box adjacent to the title. (L = leading, C = coincident, Lg =
lagging, U = unclassified.) A complete list of series titles and sources is shown in the April and
October issues of the SURVEY.
• Arithmetic scales are designated "Scale A." On the same arithmetic scale, equal vertical
distances represent equal differences in data. (For example, the vertical distance from 10 to 15
is the same as the distance from 100 to 105.)
t Logarithmic (log) scales are designated L-1, L-2, or L-3 to indicate their relative size. On
log scales of the same size, equal vertical distances represent equal percentage changes. (For




example, the vertical distance from 10 to 15 is the same as the distance from 100 to 150.)
Compared with an L-1 scale, the same percentage change covers half the distance on an L-2
scale and one-third the distance on an L-3 scale.
• Data are monthly unless otherwise indicated. Quarterly data are indicated by a "Q" following
the series title.
• Some series include a centered moving average, which is shown as a heavy line
superimposed on the actual monthly data.
• Parallel lines across a plotted series indicate a missing data value, change in definition, or
other significant break in continuity.
• The box near the end of each plotted series indicates the latest data month (Arabic numeral)
or quarter (Roman numeral) shown or, for series computed over a span of time (diffusion indexes
and rates of change), the latest data period used in computing the series.

§ Effective with June 1992 SURVEY, data have been revised, back to April 1990, unadjusted, and
back to Jan. 1987, seasonally adjusted, to reflect new benchmarks and seasonal adjustment factors.
The June 1992 issue of Employment and Earnings contains a detailed description of the effects of
these revisions. All of the revised historical series are published in a spedal supplement to Employment
and Earnings. This supplement, when combined with the historical bulletin, Employment, Hours, and
Earnings, United States, 1909-90 comprises the full historical series on national data obtained from
the establishment survey.

\ Effective July 1992 SURVEY, data have been revised back to 1987. Effective July 1991 SURVEY,
data were revised back to 1986. Effective July 1990 SURVEY, data were revised back to 1985. Revised
data are available from the Construction Statistics Division at the Bureau of the Census, Washington,

# Includes data for items not shown separately.
§ Data for Mar., May, Aug., and Nov. 1990, and Jan., May, Aug., and Oct. 1991 are for five weeks;
other months four weeks.
# The fixed-weighted price index is a weighted average of the individual price index series used
to deflate the Value of New Construction Put in Place (VIP) series. In calculating the index, the
weights (the composition of current dollar VIP in 1987 by category of construction) are held constant.
Consequently, the index reflects only changes in prices. The implicit price deflator is a derived ratio of
total current to constant dollar VIP (multiplied by 100). It is the average of the individual price indexes
used in the deflation of VIP, but the prices are weighted by the composition of VIP each period. As a
result, the implicit price deflator reflects not only changes in prices, but also changes in the composition
of VIP, and its use as a measure of price change is discouraged. Effective July 1992 SURVEY, data
have been revised back to 1989.
§§ Effective March 1992 SURVEY, the Construction Contracts Valuation Index has a new base year
of 1987. Data have been revised back to 1983 and are available upon request.
