D irector’s M essage_________________
At the Bureau o f Econom ic Analysis (BEA), o u r goal is to p ro ­
duce statistics on the state o f the econom y in a tim ely m anner.
Like other statistical agencies, we continually weigh the benefits
o f incorporating new source data against the need for tim eliness
and the need to update o u r statistics to account for m ajor shifts
in the econom y against the need to provide consistent historical
data.
To allow us to better m anage such tradeoffs, we will im ple­
m ent a new approach to annual revisions. This new approach,
called flexible annual revisions, will begin in 2010. An overview
article in this m o n th ’s S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s in e s s describes how
the new system will allow us to m ake m ajor im provem ents to o u r
econom ic accounts faster. M ethodological and conceptual
changes th at were previously reserved for every-5-year com pre­
hensive revisions can now be rolled o u t annually. O u r users will
benefit from m ore up-to-date inform ation and less onerous
changes in com prehensive revisions.
Elsewhere in this issue, we present o u r annual update o f o u r
travel and tourism satellite account, w hich showed th at grow th in
the travel industry m oderated in 2007. A nother article updates
statistics on foreign direct investm ent in the U nited States, which
was strong in 2007 and 2006.
You’ll also find articles th at detail the latest gross dom estic
p ro d u ct statistics and governm ent receipts and expenditures in
easy-to-read form ats.

Taking Account...
BEA Study Estimates Price
Indexes for Metro Areas
Price deflators are com m only
used to adjust data for changes
in price levels. For regional
econom ists, one challenge has
long been to deflate production
and personal incom e data for
specific regions w ith appropriate
price indexes.
In a recent paper th at builds
on her previous research, Bettina H. Aten, econom ist at the
Bureau o f Econom ic Analysis
(BEA), has calculated estim ates
o f experim ental price deflators
for 2005 th at m ay be used to ad ­
just price level differences across
363 m etropolitan areas and
across all states and the D istrict
o f Colum bia. These “place-toplace” price differences m ake
possible com parisons o f eco­
nom ic data th at are adjusted for
geographic differences in price
levels.
In in ternational com pari­
sons, these adjustm ents are
term ed purchasing pow er p ari­
ties; w hen divided by exchange
rates, they are called national
price levels. In areas w ith a com ­
m on currency, like the euro, the
exchange rates are the same and
the purchasing pow er parities
becom e price levels.
lust as there are differences in
price levels betw een European
U nion m em ber countries, there
are significant differences in the
purchasing pow er o f a currency
across diverse areas of the
U nited States. Price m ovem ents
in m etropolitan New York, for
example, are likely m uch differ­
ent th an price m ovem ents in ru ­
ral South Dakota.




Aten uses the term spatial
price indexes to label these esti­
m ates, w hich can be seen as the
regional equivalent o f purchas­
ing pow er parities for consum p­
tion.
Spatial price indexes can be
used to adjust consum ption-re­
lated statistics— such as per cap­
ita incom es, expenditures, and
o u tp u t— providing users w ith a
m ore accurate picture o f re­
gional econom ic differences at a
given po in t in time.
Aten’s calculation o f the spa­
tial price indexes proceeded in
three steps. In the first step, 38
areas w ith specific consum er
price indexes (CPIs) were de­
com posed into sm aller and
m ore consistent geographical ar­
eas, generally counties.
In the second step, estimates
were m ade for the rem aining
counties in the U nited States.
These counties, for which there
was n o t a relevant CPI, tend to
be in nonm etropolitan and rural
areas.
In the third step, these county
price level estim ates were aggre­
gated for all states and 363 m et­
ropolitan areas.
The paper also calculated the
values o f personal incom e and
gross dom estic p roduct by m et­
ropolitan area and state deflated
by their respective spatial price
index and thus adjusted for geo­
graphic differences in prices.
The results dem onstrate the
feasibility o f estim ating state
price levels from the best infor­
m ation available on prices and
rents from the Bureau o f Labor
Statistics and the Census Bu­
reau s A m erican C om m unity

Survey. Just as econom ists de­
flate incom es and o u tp u t over
tim e to adjust for changes in
prices across years using the CPI,
the spatial price indexes can be
used to adjust incom es or o u t­
p u t for differences in relative
price levels across places.

BEA Web site at <www.bea.gov>

W orking Papers.”

EAL gross dom estic product (GDP) increased 0.9
percent in the first quarter o f 2008 after increasing
0.6 percent in the fourth quarter o f 2007, according to
the “prelim inary” estim ates o f the national incom e and
p ro d u ct accounts (NIPAs) (chart 1 and table l ) . 1 The
first-quarter grow th rate was revised up 0.3 percentage
p o in t from the “advance” estim ate (page 9).2
The slight step-up in real GDP grow th prim arily re­
flected an u p tu rn in inventory investm ent; in contrast,
consum er spending decelerated.3
• Prices o f goods and services purchased by U.S. resi­
dents increased 3.5 percent after increasing 3.7 p er­
cent in the fourth quarter (page 8). The firstquarter increase was unrevised from the “advance”
estim ate. Food prices picked up, and energy prices
slowed. Excluding food and energy, gross dom estic
purchases prices increased 2.2 percent, following an
increase o f 2.3 percent in the fo u rth quarter.
• Real disposable personal incom e (DPI) increased
1.8 percent after increasing 0.9 percent (revised) in
the fo u rth quarter. The first-quarter increase was
revised up 0.4 percentage point. Personal current
taxes and the personal consum ption expenditures
im plicit price deflator used to deflate current-dollar
DPI b o th decelerated.
• The personal saving rate, personal saving as a p er­
centage o f current-dollar DPI, was 0.6 percent in
the first quarter, revised up 0.4 percentage point
from the “advance” estimate; in the fourth quarter,
it was 0.2 percent (revised).
• C orporate profits rose $5.2 billion in the first q u ar­
ter after falling $52.9 billion in the fourth quarter.
Profits in the first quarter reflected the Econom ic
Stim ulus Act o f 2008 (page 10).

1. “Real” estimates are in chained (2000) dollars, and price indexes are
chain-type measures.
2. Each GDP estimate for a quarter (advance, preliminary, and final)
incorporates increasingly comprehensive and improved source data. More
information can be found at <www.bea.gov/bea/about/infoqual.htm> and
<www.bea.gov/bea/faq/national/gdp_accuracy.htm>. Quarterly estimates
are expressed at seasonally adjusted annual rates, which assume that a rate
of activity for a quarter is maintained for a year.
3. In this article, “consumer spending” refers to “personal consumption
expenditures,” “inventory investment” refers to “change in private invento­
ries,” and “government spending” refers to “government consumption
expenditures and gross investment.”

Percent changes are from NIPA table 1.1.1, contributions are from NIPA table 1.1.2, and shares
are from NIPA table 1.1.10.
N ote .

Nonresidential fixed investment turned down, reflect­
ing a slowdown in investment in structures and a
downturn in investment in equipment and software.
Residential fixed investment decreased more in the
first quarter than in the fourth quarter. It was the larg­
est percentage decrease since the fourth quarter of
1981 and subtracted 1.17 percentage points from firstquarter real GDP growth.
Inventory investment turned up, mainly reflecting an
upturn in retail trade and a smaller decrease in whole­
sale trade.
Exports slowed, increasing 2.8 percent after increasing
6.5 percent. The slowdown reflected decelerations in
exports of both goods and services.
Imports decreased more in the first quarter than in the
fourth quarter. Imports of goods decreased more than
in the fourth quarter. Imports of services slowed.
Federal government spending accelerated, increasing
4.4 percent after increasing 0.5 percent; national de­
fense spending turned up.
State and local government spending slowed.

Spending for durable goods turned down in the first
quarter and reduced growth in consumer spending
0.69 percentage point. In the fourth quarter, it added
0.22 percentage point to growth. The downturn
mainly reflected a downturn in spending for motor
vehicles and parts.
Spending for nondurable goods also turned down, re­
ducing growth in real consumer spending by 0.09 per­
centage point after adding 0.36 percentage. The
downturn reflected a sharp deceleration in spending
for food and a larger decrease in spending for gasoline,
fuel oil, and other energy goods. In contrast, spending
for clothing and shoes turned up.
Spending for services picked up slightly and added
1.78 percentage points to the growth in consumer
spending. The pickup mainly reflected an acceleration
in “other” services. In contrast, spending for housing
services and for medical care services slowed.

Nonresidential fixed investment turned down in the
first quarter, decreasing 0.2 percent after increasing 6.0
percent in the fourth quarter. The downturn reflected
a slowdown in business spending for structures and a
downturn in investment in equipment and software.
The slowdown in structures investment was wide­
spread. Investment in power and communication
structures, in mining exploration, shafts, and wells,
and in commercial and health care structures turned
down. Investment in “other” structures and in manu­
facturing structures slowed.
The downturn in equipment and software investment
reflected a deceleration in information processing
equipment and software and a downturn in “other”
equipment, especially agricultural machinery. In con­
trast, investment in industrial equipment turned up.
Residential investment decreased for the ninth consec­
utive quarter and reflected continuing deterioration
that was widespread across housing categories.

1. The levels are from NIPA table 5.6.6B.
2. The residual is the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines. It reflects
that chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive, because they are based on quantity indexes that
use weights of more than one period.
3. The ratios are from NIPA table 5.7.6B.

Inventory investment in mining, utilities, and con­
struction industries increased $0.3 billion after de­
creasing $2.9 billion.
The $2.6 billion decrease in inventory investment in
wholesale trade industries in the first quarter was
smaller than the $17.2 billion decrease in the fourth
quarter. The smaller first-quarter decrease mainly re­
flected a smaller decrease in nondurable-goods indus­
tries.
The $2.7 billion increase in inventory investment in
retail trade industries followed a $35.6 billion de­
crease. It mainly reflected an upturn in motor vehicle
and parts dealers that exceeded a downturn in “other”
retail stores.

Inventory Investment
The real change in private inventories, often called real pri­
vate inventory investment, represents the change in the
physical stock of goods held by businesses. It includes fin­
ished goods, goods at various stages of production, and raw
materials.
The change in private inventories is a key component of
gross domestic product (GDP), which aims to measure out­
put derived from current production. To include the value
of currently produced goods that are not yet sold and to
exclude the value of goods produced in previous periods,
change in private inventories must be included in the GDP
calculation.
Thus, GDP can also be seen as the sum of final sales of
domestic product and the change in private inventories
(table 2).
For most industries, the estimates of change in private
inventories are prepared by revaluing book-value estimates
of inventories from the Census Bureau to a replacementcost basis and calculating the change over a quarter or year.
BEA does not always have complete data for every industry.

1. The estimates under the contribution columns are also percent changes.
2. Exports and imports of certain goods, primarily military equipment purchased and sold by the
Federal Government, are included in services.
3. Includes parts of foods, feeds, and beverages, of nondurable industrial supplies and materials, and
of nondurable nonautomotive consumer goods.
Note. Percent changes are from NIPA table 4.2.1, contributions are from NIPA table 4.2.2, and shares

Real export growth slowed, increasing 2.8 percent in
the first quarter after increasing 6.5 percent in the
fourth quarter.
Exports of goods increased 1.5 percent after increasing
3.9 percent. The slowdown reflected a downturn in
nonautomotive capital goods and a larger decrease in
automotive vehicles, engines, and parts. In contrast,
both exports of nonautomotive consumer goods and
exports of foods, feeds, and beverages turned up.
Exports of services decelerated, increasing 5.8 percent
after increasing 13.2 percent. The deceleration re­
flected a slowdown in travel by foreigners in the
United States and a deceleration in “other” private ser­
vices.
Real imports decreased 2.6 percent after decreasing 1.4
percent.
Imports of goods decreased 3.6 percent after decreas­
ing 2.6 percent. Imports of nonautomotive consumer
goods turned down, and imports of petroleum and
products slowed. In contrast, imports of nonpetro­
leum industrial supplies and materials and “other”
imports decreased less in the first quarter than in the
fourth quarter.
Imports of services slowed. Imports of “other” private
services decelerated. In contrast, travel by U.S. citizens
abroad decreased by less than in the fourth quarter.

Growth in real government spending was 2.0 percent
in the first quarter, unchanged from the fourth quar­
ter. Federal government spending picked up, but state
and local government spending slowed.
Federal government spending increased 4.4 percent,
following an increase of 0.5 percent. The pickup re­
flected an upturn in spending for national defense.
Nondefense spending slowed.
State and local government spending decelerated, re­
flecting a downturn in gross investment.

Chart 6. Real Government Consumption Expenditures
and Gross Investment

Government Spending
“Government consumption expenditures and gross invest­
ment,” or “government spending,” consists of two compo­
nents: (1) consumption expenditures by federal government
and by state and local governments and (2) gross investment
by government and government-owned enterprises.
Government consumption expenditures consists of the
goods and services that are produced by general government
(less any sales to other sectors and investment goods pro­
duced by government itself). Governments generally pro­
vide services to the general public without charge. The value
of government production—that is, government’s gross out­
put— is measured as spending for labor and for intermediate
goods and services and a charge for consumption of fixed
capital.1
Gross investment consists of new and used structures
(such as highways and dams) and equipment and software
purchased or produced by government and governmentowned enterprises.
Government consumption expenditures and gross invest­
ment excludes current transactions of government-owned
enterprises, current transfer payments, interest payments,
subsidies, and transactions in financial assets and nonpro­
duced assets, such as land.

Note on Prices
BEA’s gross domestic purchases price index is the most com­
prehensive index of prices paid by U.S. residents for all
goods and services purchased in the United States. It is
derived from prices of consumer spending, private invest­
ment, government spending, and prices paid for imports.
The GDP price index measures the prices paid for all the
goods and services produced in the United States, and it
includes the prices of goods and services that are exported.
The difference between the gross domestic purchases
price index and the GDP price index reflects the differences
between the imports prices (included in the gross domestic
purchases index) and the exports prices (included in the
GDP price index).




Prices paid by U.S. residents, as measured by the price
index for gross domestic purchases, slowed slightly in
the first quarter, increasing 3.5 percent after increasing
3.7 percent in the fourth quarter. About 0.3 percent­
age point of the first-quarter increase was due to the
federal government pay increases.
Consumer prices, as measured by the price index for
consumer spending slowed, primarily reflecting decel­
erations in prices paid for medical care services and
for gasoline, fuel oil, and other energy goods.
Prices of nonresidential fixed investment decelerated.
Prices paid for structures slowed, and prices for equip­
ment and software turned down.
Residential investment prices decreased more in the
first quarter than in the fourth quarter. It was the larg­
est percentage drop in residential prices since the third
quarter of 1970.
Prices paid by government accelerated. Prices paid by
the federal government accelerated, mainly reflecting
the pay raise for federal civilian and military person­
nel, which is treated as an increase in the price of em­
ployee services purchased by the federal government.
Prices paid by state and local government also acceler­
ated.
Consumer prices excluding food and energy, a mea­
sure of the “core” rate of inflation, increased 2.1 per­
cent after increasing 2.5 percent.
The GDP price index increased 2.6 percent, 0.9 per­
centage point less than the increase in the price index
for gross domestic purchases, reflecting a larger in­
crease in import prices than in export prices.

The 0.9 percent preliminary estimate of real GDP
growth is 0.3 percentage point more than the “ad­
vance” estimate. The average revision (without regard
to sign) between the “advance” and “prelim inary” es­
timates is 0.5 percentage point. The upward revision
reflected a downward revision to im ports and upward
revisions to nonresidential structures and to con­
sumer spending for nondurable goods that exceeded
downward revisions to inventory investment, exports,
and consumer spending for services.

The downward revision to consumer spending for ser­
vices mainly reflected brokerage and investment coun­
seling.
The upward revision to nonresidential structures
mainly reflected commercial and health care struc­
tures, “other” structures, and power and com m unica­
tion structures.
The downward revision to inventory investment pri­
marily reflected wholesale and retail trade inventories.
The upward revision to exports was mostly to goods
and was widespread.
The downward revision to imports was mostly to
goods and was widespread.

With the release of the prelim inary estimates of GDP, BEA
also releases revised estimates of various income-related
measures for the previous quarter. This revision reflects the
incorporation of newly available fourth-quarter tabulations
from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Wage and salary disbursements increased $85.7 billion in
the fourth quarter, an upward revision of $26.0 billion. Per­
sonal current taxes increased $22.9 billion, an upward revi­
sion of $4.7 billion. Contributions for government social
insurance, which are subtracted in calculating personal
income, increased $10.9 billion, an upward revision of $3.5
billion. As a result of these revisions,
• Personal income increased $145.9 billion, an upward revi­
sion of $24.3 billion.
• Disposable personal income increased $123.0 billion, an
upward revision of $19.6 billion.
• Personal saving decreased $25.1 billion, $19.6 billion less
of a decrease than previously published.
• The personal saving rate was 0.2 percent, an upward revi­
sion of 0.2 percentage point.

C apital consum ption adjustm ent

The Effect of the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 on Corporate Profits
As of the first quarter of 2008, NIPA corporate profits
reflect bonus depreciation provisions and higher ceilings
for small business expenses provided by the Economic
Stimulus Act of 2008. The law offers a first-year bonus
depreciation of 50 percent for qualifying property pur­
chased and put in place in 2008. It also raises the ceiling for
small business expenses under Internal Revenue Code Sec­
tion 179 from $128,000 to $250,000. Because the deduct­
ible amount summed across 2008 and future tax years
equals the cost of the property, the accelerated deductions
in 2008 will lead to lower deductions in the future.
Profits from current production were not affected by the
act, because they do not depend on the depreciationaccounting practices used for federal taxes. This profits
measure includes inventory valuation and capital con­
sumption adjustments to put it on an economic-accounting basis, not a tax basis. But industry profits adjusted for
inventory valuations and profits before taxes are affected
by the inventory and depreciation-accounting practices
used for federal corporate taxes.




The act’s provisions increased the depreciation that cor­
porations could claim in the first quarter by $139.7 billion,
thus reducing profits before taxes by the same amount. As
a result, taxes on profits was reduced $37.8 billion, and
profits after tax was reduced $102.0 billion.
The capital consumption adjustment (CCAdj) is the dif­
ference between the tax-based depreciation and economicaccounting depreciation. Because the tax-based deprecia­
tion estimate was raised $139.7 billion, the CCAdj
increased by the same amount.
Historically, similar adjustments were made for the lob
Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002 (see the April
2002 S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s i n e s s ) and the lobs and Growth
Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 (see the luly 2003
S u rv e y ).

The effects are net of offsetting bonus depreciation that
was claimed in earlier years. See the table “Net Effects of
the Tax Acts of 2002, 2003, and 2008 on Selected Measures
of Corporate Profits” at <www.bea.gov/national/xls/

Taxes on corporate income decreased more in the first
quarter than in the fourth quarter as a result of the
Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 that provided a firstyear bonus depreciation of 50 percent for qualifying
property purchased in 2008 and raised the ceiling for
small business expensing (see the box on the effect of
this act on corporate profits on page 10).

maximum taxable wage base increased to $102,000 in
2008 from $97,500 in 2007. Contributions for supple­

Defense expenditures accelerated. Compensation of
employees was boosted $5.3 billion because of the Jan­
uary 2008 pay raise. Spending for services accelerated,
and spending for durable goods turned up.
Nondefense expenditures accelerated, primarily as a
result of the January 2008 pay raise that boosted com­
pensation $3.5 billion.
Government social benefits to persons accelerated, re­
flecting an acceleration in benefits for social security
and an upturn in benefits for Medicare. A 2.3 percent
cost-of-living adjustment boosted benefits for social
security, veterans pensions, supplemental security in­
come, and other programs by $15.5 billion.
Other current transfer payments to the rest of the
world decelerated, reflecting a downturn in payments
to Afghanistan.
Interest payments turned up, reflecting an upturn in
interest paid to persons and business on Treasury In­
flation-Protected Securities.

Estimates of federal government current receipts, current
expenditures, and net federal government saving are based
on data from the federal budget, from the Monthly Treasury
Statement and other reports from the Department of the
Treasury, and from other federal government agencies.
Total receipts, total expenditures, and net lending or net
borrowing, which are alternative measures of the federal fis­




cal position, are based on these same sources.
Quarterly and annual estimates are published monthly in
NIPA table 3.2. Detailed annual estimates of these transac­
tions by component are published annually in NIPA tables
3.4-3.8, 3.12, and 3.13. Detailed quarterly estimates are
available in underlying NIPA tables at <www.bea.gov/bea/

Estimates of State and Local Government Receipts and Expenditures
The estimates of state and local government current re­
ceipts and expenditures and total receipts and expenditures
are mainly based on compilations of data for state and local
government finances. The Census Bureau produces the pri­
mary source data: the census of governments that is con­
ducted in years that end in a 2 or a 7 and the Government
Finances series of surveys for the other years. In addition,
other sources of Census Bureau data are from the Quarterly
Summary of State and Local Government Tax Revenue and
the monthly Value of Construction Put in Place. Data
sources from the Bureau of Labor Statistics include the
Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages and the
Employment Cost Index.
Quarterly and annual estimates are available monthly in
NIPA table 3.3. Detailed annual estimates of state and
local government transactions by component are available




annually in NIPA tables 3.4-3.8, 3.12, and 3.13. Detailed
quarterly estimates are available in underlying NIPA
tables at <www.bea.gov/bea/dn/nipaweb/nipa_underlying/
Index.aspX For a historical time series of reconciliations of
the NIPA estimates with the Census Bureau data from
Government Finances, see NIPA table 3.19.
BEA also prepares annual estimates of receipts and
expenditures of state governments and of local
governments.1 These estimates are available annually in
NIPA table 3.20 (state government receipts and expen­
ditures) and in NIPA table 3.21 (local government receipts

By Sarah R. Mattingly and Eric S. Griffith
HE TRAVEL and tourism industry— as m easured
by the real o u tp u t o f goods and services sold d i­
rectly to visitors— grew for the sixth consecutive year
in 2007, according to the m ost recent statistics from
the travel and tourism satellite accounts o f the Bureau
o f Econom ic Analysis (BEA). These revised estimates
show increases in real direct o u tp u t o f 1.9 percent in
2007, 3.1 percent in 2006, and 2.9 percent in 2005.1
The slowdown in 2007 is larger than previously re­
p o rted and reflects an upw ard revision o f 0.6 percent­
age p o in t to grow th in 2006. Em ploym ent in the
tourism industry accelerated, increasing 1.7 percent in
2007 after increasing 0.6 percent in 2006 and 1.0 per­
cent in 2005.
O ther highlights from the travel and tourism satel­
lite accounts include the following:
• In b o u n d tourism grew 15.8 percent in 2007, and
o u tb o u n d tourism grew 4.8 percent. As a result, net
exports o f travel and tourism nearly tripled to $18.4
billion in 2007 from $6.7 billion in 2006.
• C urrent-dollar
total
tourism -related
outp u t
increased 5.8 percent to $1.32 trillion in 2007 from
$1.25 trillion in 2006.
• Prices for tourism goods and services increased for
the fifth consecutive year in 2007, increasing 3.6
percent after increasing 4.2 percent in 2006.
• Real o u tp u t slowed or tu rn ed dow n in 14 o f 24
com m odities in 2007, including traveler accom m o­
dations, international passenger air transp ortation,
and gambling.
The travel and tourism estim ates o f o u tp u t and em ­
ploym ent for 2004-2007 have been revised. This revi­
sion incorporates detailed statistics from the m ost
recent U.S. annual in p u t-o u tp u t (I-O ) tables, which
include data up to 2006, and sum m ary statistics from
the national incom e and product accounts (NIPAs),
which include data up to 2007. See the box “Data
Availability.”
The rem ainder o f this article includes a discussion
o f trends in travel and tourism o u tp u t and prices, the
com position o f tourism dem and, and tourism value
added and em ploym ent, followed by the core travel
and tourism account tables.

Tren d s in Travel and Tou rism
O utp u t and Prices
Real o u tp u t. Real direct tourism o u tp u t— the value of
the tourism sector’s goods and services sold directly to
visitors— increased 1.9 percent in 2007, com pared
w ith 3.1 percent in 2006. The grow th in 2007 was the
weakest since 2002. The slowdown in 2007 was w ide­
spread. G row th decelerated or tu rn ed dow n in m any
com ponents, including real sales o f traveler accom m o­
dations (1.2 percent in 2007, com pared w ith 3.8 p er­
cent in 2006), gasoline (-1.3 percent, com pared with
3.3 percent), food and beverage services (1.7 percent,
com pared w ith 3.2 percent), and international passen­
ger air tran sp o rtatio n (2.7 percent, com pared w ith 8.2
percent). Partially offsetting this sluggishness, grow th
in dom estic passenger air transportation tu rn ed up
(2.5 percent in 2007, com pared w ith -0 .4 percent in
2006), and grow th in autom otive rental and leasing ac­
celerated (7.5 percent, com pared w ith 0.3 percent) (ta­
ble A). Transportation contributed m ost to the 1.9
percent grow th in real tourism output, accounting for
43 percent (0.84 percentage point) o f the overall in ­
crease in 2007 (tables B and C). Recreation, en tertain ­
m ent, and shopping accounted for 33 percent o f total
growth. Food and beverage services, w hich co n trib ­
uted significantly to grow th in previous years, ac­
counted for only 13 percent o f the total increase in
2007 (chart 1).
Prices. Tourism goods and services prices also
slowed, increasing 3.6 percent in 2007, com pared w ith
4.2 percent in 2006. The slowdown in price grow th was
widespread. The key drivers were a slowdown in d o ­
mestic passenger air transportation grow th (0.3 p e r­
cent in 2007, com pared w ith 5.7 percent in 2006), a
dow nturn in autom otive rental and leasing growth,
(-0.2 percent, com pared w ith 5.9 percent), and a

slowdown in gasoline growth (8.7 percent, com pared
with 12.9 percent). These slowdowns were partially
offset by accelerating prices for traveler accom m oda­
tions (4.8 percent in 2007, com pared w ith 2.6 percent
in 2006) and food and beverage services (3.7 percent,
com pared w ith 3.1 percent) (table D).
Despite the deceleration, total travel and tourism
prices increased for the fifth consecutive year in 2007.
Traveler accom m odations contributed 0.89 percentage
point to total price grow th in 2007 and accounted for
25 percent o f the growth, while tran sportation con­
tributed 1.32 percentage points and accounted for 37
percent of total price grow th (chart 2 and table E).
T ransportation, which includes passenger air travel
and gasoline, rem ained volatile. D om estic air travel
prices rem ained below their 2000 level, b ut in tern a­
tional air travel prices were 39.2 percent higher than in
2000. Gasoline prices accounted for 21.6 percent of
overall 2007 price growth and were 85.5 percent above
their 2000 level (table F).
Total o u tp u t. Total tourism -related o u tp u t in ­
creased to $1.32 trillion in 2007, up 5.8 percent from
$1.25 trillion in 2006. Total o u tp u t consisted o f $746.5
billion in direct tourism o u tp u t and $572.7 billion in
indirect tourism o u tp u t (chart 3). The 1.77 ratio o f to ­
tal o u tp u t to direct o u tp u t in 2007 means that every
dollar of direct tourism o u tp u t required an additional
77 cents o f indirect tourism output.
Direct tourism o u tp ut includes goods and services
sold directly to visitors, such as passenger air travel. In­
direct tourism o u tp u t includes sales o f all goods and

The accounts distinguish expenditures o f U.S. resi­
dents traveling abroad from those of U.S. residents
and nonresidents traveling w ithin the U nited States for
leisure, business, or governm ent purposes. The balance
o f tourism trade can be derived by subtracting expen­
ditures on foreign travel by U.S. residents (an im port
o f goods and services to outbound travelers) from ex­
penditures on U.S. travel by nonresidents (an export of
goods and services to inbound travelers).
In te rn a tio n a l travel an d to u rism . International
travel (the sum o f inbound travel and outb o u n d travel)
grew 10.5 percent in 2007 and 4.8 percent in 2006. In
2007, in b o u n d tourism — travel-related expenditures
and international transportation purchases from U.S.
providers by nonresidents traveling in the U nited
States— grew 15.8 percent to $119.6 billion (chart 4).
O u tb o u n d tourism — travel-related expenditures and
international transportation purchases from foreign
providers by U.S. residents traveling abroad— grew 4.8
percent to $101.2 billion. As a result, net exports of
travel and tourism increased sharply to $18.4 billion in
2007 from $6.7 billion in 2006 (table G).

o f 133 percent each year from $0.9 billion in 2003 to
$18.4 billion in 2007. The m ost recent spike in net
exports o f travel and tourism coincided w ith the dol­
lar’s relative drop against m ajor currencies that m ade
travel to the U nited States by nonresidents less expen­
sive. Furtherm ore, the appreciation o f the euro and the

3. As a component of internal tourism, the calculation of inbound tour­
ism is modified to exclude all expenditures on international transportation,
whether purchased from foreign or U.S. providers. This makes possible an
equally defined comparison between expenditures by U.S. residents travel­
ing within the U.S. (domestic tourism), and expenditures by nonresidents
traveling within the U.S. (inbound tourism).

Business travel’s share of dom estic travel and tourism
has increased for the fourth straight year to reach 32.1

Total em p lo y m ent. Total tourism -related em ploy­
m ent (the sum o f direct and indirect jobs) grew to 8.6
m illion jobs in 2007, the fourth consecutive year of
growth. The 8.6 m illion jobs consisted o f 5.9 m illion
direct to urism jobs and 2.7 m illion indirect tourism
jobs (chart 9). Direct tourism em ploym ent includes

jobs that produce direct tourism outp u t, such as air­
line pilots; indirect tourism em ploym ent consists of
jobs th at produce indirect tourism outp u t, such as re­
finery workers who produce jet fuel. The m ost recent
data indicate that every direct tourism job generates an
additional 46 percent o f a job in indirect tourism em ­
ploym ent (see table 7 at the end o f this article).

Key Terms
Tourism employment. Total tourism-related employ­

The following key terms are used to describe the travel
and tourism satellite accounts.
Domestic tourism. Travel-related expenditures by
U.S. residents traveling within the United States. It com­
prises travel by resident households, business travel, and
travel by government employees.
Inbound tourism. Travel-related expenditures by
nonresidents traveling within the United States and
expenditures by nonresidents on international transpor­
tation purchased from U.S. providers. These expendi­
tures exclude expenditures for travel to study in the
United States and for medical reasons.1
Internal tourism. The sum of domestic tourism
expenditures and inbound tourism expenditures (net of
all international transportation expenditures).
National tourism. The sum of domestic tourism
demand and outbound tourism demand (including all
international transportation expenditures).
Outbound tourism. Travel-related expenditures by
U.S. residents traveling abroad and expenditures by U.S.
residents on international transportation purchased from
foreign providers.
Tourism commodities. Goods and services that are
typically purchased by visitors, such as airline passenger
transportation, hotel accommodations, and meals.2
1. In the travel and tourism satellite accounts, inbound and out­
bound visitors are not differentiated by type o f visitor, because the data
to prepare these estimates are not available.
2. The classification o f tourism commodities in the travel and tour­
ism satellite accounts is based on a list of primary activities o f visitors
that was developed from recommendations by the World Trade Organi­
zation and by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Devel­
opment, and from various surveys o f U.S. visitors.




ment consists of direct tourism employment plus indirect
tourism employment. Direct tourism employment com­
prises all jobs where the workers are engaged in the pro­
duction of direct tourism output (for example, hotel staff
and airline pilots), and indirect tourism employment
comprises all jobs where the workers are engaged in the
production of indirect tourism output (for example,
workers producing hotel toiletries and delivering fuel to
airlines).
Tourism output. Total tourism-related output con­
sists of direct tourism output and indirect tourism out­
put. Direct tourism output comprises all domestically
produced goods and services purchased by travelers (for
example, traveler accommodations and passenger air
transportation), and indirect tourism output comprises
all output required to support the production of direct
tourism output (for example, toiletries for hotel guests
and fuel for airplanes).
Usual environment. The area of normal, everyday
activities, within 50-100 miles of home.3
Visitor. A person who travels outside of his or her
usual environment for less than a year or who stays over­
night in a hotel or motel. The visitor may travel for plea­
sure or business (private sector or government). Visitors
exclude travelers who expect to be compensated at the
location of their visit (such as migrant workers, persons
traveling to new assignments, and diplomatic and mili­
tary personnel traveling to and from their duty stations
and their home countries).

3. The usual environment depends on the availability o f source data.

Tables 1 through 8 follow.

S PART o f its continuing effort to accurately p o r­
tray the dynam ic U.S. economy, the Bureau o f
Econom ic Analysis (BEA) will soon adopt a new ap ­
proach to annual revisions o f its econom ic accounts
th at will allow im provem ents in concepts, definitions,
and source data to be introduced earlier than previ­
ously possible. Starting in 2010, BEA plans to in tro ­
duce “flexible” annual revisions th at will retain the
features o f the current annual revisions o f BEA’s n a­
tional, industry, and regional accounts b u t will also al­
low for the kind o f im provem ents that traditionally
were reserved for BEA’s com prehensive revisions,
w hich historically occurred every 5 years.1 Flexible an ­
nual revisions will accelerate im provem ents to BEA’s
accounts by expanding the current 3-year period o f re­
vision to earlier periods if necessary. This new ap ­
proach will provide several benefits to BEA and its
custom ers. D ata users will have a m ore accurate and
up -to -d ate set o f accounts w ith fewer changes reserved
for com prehensive revisions. Internally, flexible annual
revisions will allow BEA to better allocate its resources.
This BEA Briefing provides an overview o f BEA’s
plans for conducting flexible annual revisions in the
national, industry, and regional accounts. See chart 1
for an overview. The first part discusses why BEA is
adopting a new approach and provides som e back­
g round on the role o f annual revisions in im proving
accuracy and m aintaining consistency in BEA’s eco­
nom ic accounts. The second p art discusses the scope
o f flexible annual revisions, how they will differ from
the current annual revisions, and examples o f changes
1. The timetable for introducing flexible annual revisions for the national
income and product accounts (NIPAs) was announced in the July 2007
issue o f the Survey of Current Business, see <www.bea.gov/scb/pdf/2007/
07%20July/0707_ta.pdf>. The concept o f flexible annual revisions was dis­
cussed at the May 2006 and November 2006 meetings of BEA’s Advisory
Committee and at the April 2007 National Economic Accounts Data Users’
Conference. See <www.bea.gov/about/advisory.htm> and < www.bea.gov/
agency/exhibit_schedule.htm>.

Moyer, George M. Smith, D avid F. Sullivan, and Robert
E. Yuskavage




that m ight be introduced. The third p art discusses how
com parisons o f estimates in the national econom ic ac­
counts and industry accounts can be used to im prove
b o th sets o f accounts through enhanced integration.
Finally, the fourth p art presents issues th at BEA will
face in im plem enting flexible annual revisions and a
tentative tim etable.
In the near future, BEA intends to publish ad d i­
tional articles in the S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s in e s s w ith
m ore details about flexible annual revisions. BEA en ­
courages its custom ers to consider how flexible annual
revisions will affect their uses o f BEA’s estim ates and to
provide feedback and questions.

Why flexible annual revisions?
Currently, BEA reserves m ajor im provem ents in defi­
nitions, classifications, and m ethodologies in its eco­
nom ic accounts to periodic “com prehensive revisions.”
C om prehensive revisions are usually conducted at 5year intervals that correspond w ith the integration of
u pdated statistics from BEA’s quinquennial benchm ark
in p u t-o u tp u t (I-O ) accounts. BEA has often in tro ­
duced m ajor im provem ents to the accounts in com ­
prehensive revisions because m any o f these
im provem ents also require revisions to a large n um ber
o f years or to m ultiple com ponents w ithin the ac­
counts.
In contrast, BEA’s annual revisions are designed p ri­
m arily to update the accounts with source data for re­
cent periods, for example, inform ation on dom estic
p roduction, sales, and inventories from Census Bureau
surveys and inform ation from foreign trade reports.
BEA has also used annual revisions to introduce im ­
provem ents in m ethodologies that prim arily affected
these recent periods. By convention, annual revisions
have been lim ited to the 3 m ost recent years. As a re­
sult, som e im provem ents that would also significantly
affect earlier periods have been reserved for com pre­
hensive revisions in order to preserve tim e-series co n ­
sistency.
In January 2005, BEA established an internal in ­
tegration team to explore ways to im prove b o th the
national and industry accounts by further integrating

30

Flexible Annual R evisions

the m ethodologies and procedures used in these ac­
counts and to explore ways to im prove the com pre­
hensive revision process. After the 2003 com prehensive
revision o f the NIPAs, BEA realized th at changes were
needed in the scope o f com prehensive revisions be­
cause th at com prehensive revision introduced a large
n u m b er o f im p o rtan t and com plex changes that were
difficult for BEA’s staff to im plem ent and for BEA’s
custom ers to easily absorb all at one tim e.2
O ne im p o rtan t outcom e o f the integration team ’s
w ork was initiating an annual “feedback loop” between
the industry and national accounts to im prove the esti­
m ates in b o th accounts. At the same tim e, the team
recognized th at im plem enting m ajor im provem ents
derived from the feedback loop w ould be very difficult
2.
The 2003 comprehensive revision of the NIPAs was described in
Eugene P. Seskin and Daniel Larkins, “Improved Estimates of the National
Income and Product Accounts for 1929-2002: Results of the Comprehen­
sive Revision,” Survey 84 (February 2004): 7-29.

June 2008

in the fram ew ork o f BEA’s existing annual revision
process and that a m ore flexible approach was needed.
A nother im p o rtan t outcom e o f the team ’s w ork was
the recognition th at the every-5-year com prehensive
revision process was insufficient for keeping up w ith
the rapid, continuous changes in the U.S. econom y
and w ith changes in international econom ic account­
ing standards. In this area as well, BEA recognized th at
a m ore flexible approach to introducing changes in
definitions, classifications, and m ethodologies was
needed.
At the recom m endation o f the integration team ,
BEA decided to im plem ent flexible annual revisions.
Flexible annual revisions will allow som e o f the com ­
plex and cross-cutting im provem ents currently in tro ­
duced only every 5 years during com prehensive
revisions to be incorporated into the accounts on a
flow basis, providing the users o f BEA’s econom ic ac­
counts better inform ation earlier. BEA’s users will also

benefit from having fewer cross-cutting im provem ents
to absorb w hen trying to understand how and why the
longterm picture of the econom y has changed in com ­
prehensive revisions. (C om prehensive revisions update
estim ates over long tim e periods.)
Flexible annual revisions will also strengthen BEA’s
review o f m any account im provem ents by rem oving
th em from the peak production periods leading up to
com prehensive revisions when the dem ands on BEA
staff are greatest.
In addition, flexible annual revisions are expected to
im prove the accounts by increasing the frequency and
scope o f staff interaction across BEA’s program areas.
Because BEA’s national, industry, regional, and in ter­
national accounts are integrated, incorporating im ­
provem ents th at arise from any o f these program areas
requires close coordination. For example, state-level
estim ates o f gross dom estic pro d u ct (GDP) by in d u s­
try include allocations o f U.S.-level estim ates o f GDP
by industry, whereas U.S.-level industry estim ates of
taxes on p ro d uction reflect aggregations o f state-level
in d u stry data. Historically, staff interactions across
p rogram areas in reviewing and im plem enting cross­
cutting proposals for com prehensive revisions have re­
sulted in exchanges o f source data, m ethodologies, and
insights th at led to further im provem ents in the ac­
counts. W ith flexible annual revisions, these dialogues
will becom e continuous rather th an periodic around
com prehensive revisions. D istributing this w ork over a
longer period will also help BEA increase its efficiency
in producing econom ic accounts in a tight budget cli­
m ate.

Scope of flexible annual revisions
The 3-year scope o f annual revisions has served BEA’s
business, governm ent, and academ ic custom ers well
for m any years b u t has delayed som e im p o rtan t
changes to the accounts until com prehensive revisions.
M any im provem ents, such as a m easure for a new ser­
vice or new source data for a transaction, are in tro ­
duced in annual revisions; however, the current 3-year
scope prevents im provem ents significantly affecting
earlier years from being introduced in annual revi­
sions.
O ther im provem ents, such as a new treatm ent of re­
search and developm ent expenditures, are too com pre­
hensive and com plex to incorporate into an annual
revision an d need to be incorporated into a bench­
m ark I-O table before incorporation in BEA’s other
econom ic accounts. Flexible annual revisions would
allow the less com prehensive and less com plex im ­
provem ents to be introduced into BEA’s accounts once




31

they are ready. Such im provem ents w ould be lim ited to
those that w ould have a substantive effect on a m ajor
aggregate or th at provide a significantly clearer picture
o f econom ic activity o f w idespread m arket or policy
interest.
U nder flexible annual revisions, the curren t tim eta­
ble for releasing each BEA program ’s annual revisions
will n o t change, b u t m ore flexibility in the tim e period
open to revision will be allowed in im plem enting some
o f the im provem ents. Beginning in 2010, the w indow
for allowing revisions will no longer be lim ited to the 3
m ost recent years b u t m ay extend to earlier years.
O ne change under this new policy is th at referenceyear statistics for chained-dollar estim ates and for
price and quantity indexes (currently 2000) m ay be
subject to revision. U nder the present policy, estim ates
for the reference year are n o t subject to change in
annual revisions. However, w ith flexible annual re­
visions, revisions could extend to earlier years and
result in revisions to estim ates in the reference
year, potentially resulting in revisions to chaineddollar estim ates and indexes for the entire historical
period and for all related tim e series. BEA will carefully
consider the im pact o f changes that could affect refer­
ence-year estimates.
Source data th at norm ally becom e available, or are
revised, for periods earlier th an the 3 m ost recent years
will be incorporated in flexible annual revisions when
they have a substantive effect on a m ajor aggregate or
provide a significantly clearer picture o f econom ic ac­
tivity. For example, revisions to estim ates from BEA’s
balance o f paym ents accounts often extend back m ore
th an 3 years. These revisions will be incorporated into
the accounts w hen they are large and im portan t. Also,
final source data from the Census Bureau’s G overn­
m ent Finance program w ould n o t likely be in co rp o ­
rated because they routinely result in m inor revisions
earlier th an the 3 m ost recent years.

Industry-national feedback loop
The feedback loop between the national and industry
accounts is expected to lead to ideas for im provem ents
th at could be introduced earlier via flexible annual re­
visions. The feedback loop, w hich com pares corre­
sponding estim ates in BEA’s annual industry accounts
w ith the national incom e and pro d u ct accounts
(NIPAs), becam e feasible when these accounts were in ­
tegrated in 2004.
For an example o f how this feedback loop m ight
lead to im proved estimates via flexible annual revi­
sions, consider personal consum ption expenditures
(PCE) as m easured in the NIPAs and the annual

32

Flexible Annual R evisions

in d u stry accounts. The two m easures are conceptually
equivalent, however, each account uses its ow n estim a­
tion m ethodology. The industry account’s com m odity
flow m eth o d uses source data on the dom estic supply
o f goods and services; the NIPA’s retail control m ethod
uses source data on the m erchandise sales o f the vari­
ous types o f retail trade establishm ents.
Both accounts’ m ethodologies have lim itations. The
com m odity flow m ethod lacks current inform ation
on the share o f the dom estic supply o f televisions
purchased by individuals; it applies the share from the
previous benchm ark 1 -0 table. The retail control
m eth o d lacks current inform ation on the p roduct m ix
o f sales for the various types o f retailers; it applies the
p ro d u ct m ix from the previous benchm ark 1-0 table.
Recently, the com m odity flow m eth o d ’s estim ates of
PCE for televisions have been substantially higher than
the retail control m eth o d ’s estim ates published in the
NIPAs.
Research is underw ay to reconcile the largest o f the
discrepancies th at result from these alternative m eth ­
ods.3 Im proved estim ates o f PCE are expected from
this research.
Once im proved PCE estim ates are prepared, tested,
reviewed, and approved, flexible annual revisions
w ould allow revised PCE estim ates to be incorporated
in b o th recent and earlier periods if necessary to retain
tim e series consistency.

Implementation issues
Im plem enting flexible annual revisions w ithin the
tight tim efram es now used for annual revisions o f n a­
tional, international, industry and regional accounts
will require early reviews o f proposed im provem ents.
Some revisions m ay require new m ethods to incorpo­
rate at the regional level. BEA’s program areas have ini­
tiated test im plem entation procedures that will (1)
show the full im pact o f a proposed im provem ent, (2)
clarify w hen it is ready for im plem entation, and (3) ex­
pedite the im plem entation o f approved im provem ents.
These review procedures are generally m ore far reach-

June 2008

ing than the procedures that were previously possible
in com prehensive revisions.
BEA has already begun developing new test and im ­
plem entation procedures for flexible annual revisions.
For example, testing a proposed reclassification o f PCE
for the 2009 com prehensive revision o f the NIPAs is
well underw ay using prototype procedures.4 BEA staff
are identifying and coordinating w ork on research th at
m ay result in im provem ents for future flexible annual
revisions. Several research projects identified on BEA’s
strategic plan are am ong those that m ay be considered
for im plem entation.5 W ith the new testing and im ple­
m entation procedures, BEA expects to incorporate im ­
provem ents to definitions, classifications, and
m ethodologies in future flexible annual revisions.
As noted above, flexible annual revisions will be in ­
troduced in 2010. The annual revisions over the next
12 m onths will continue to result in revisions for the 3
m ost recent years (2005-2007): the annual revision of
the NIPAs will be released in July 2008, the revision o f
the annual industry accounts will be released in D e­
cem ber 2008, and the revision o f the gross dom estic
product by state will be released in June 2009. C o m ­
prehensive revisions to these accounts will follow in
2009 and 2010. Flexible annual revisions are scheduled
to begin w ith the NIPA release in July 2010.
For flexible annual revisions, BEA will announce the
im provem ents to be m ade and the periods subject to
revision in advance o f their release. This policy will
provide tim e for BEA’s custom ers to prepare for the
changes and determ ine how to incorporate th em into
their uses of the data. BEA will continue to investigate
issues related to the im pact on chained-dollar esti­
m ates and various price and quantity indexes o f refer­
ence year changes and how best to incorporate changes
that affect long historical tim e series.

UTLAYS by foreign direct investors to acquire or
to establish U.S. businesses increased sharply in
2007, according to statistics from the Bureau o f Eco­
nom ic Analysis. Outlays reached $276.8 billion in
2007, the second largest on record and the highest
since 2000, w hen new investm ent outlays peaked at
$335.6 billion (table 1 and chart 1).
Spending by foreign investors increased 67 percent
in 2007, following an increase o f 81 percent in 2006.
The increases in b oth years were significantly larger
th an the overall increases in U.S. m erger and acquisi­
tion activity and broke a pattern o f m ore m oderate an ­
nual grow th from 2002 to 2005. The strong grow th in
spending in 2006 and 2007 coincided w ith declines in
the value o f the dollar against m any m ajor currencies.
In addition, in b o th years, large transactions— those
th at were $2 billion or m ore— accounted for about 50
percent o f foreign investors’ total outlays (table 2).
A m ong m ajor industries, outlays increased the m ost
in m anufacturing, w hich accounted for nearly half of
total investm ent outlays in 2007 (table 3). Outlays were
also sizable in “other industries” (m ostly in tran sp o rta­
tion and warehousing, utilities, and m ining), in fi­
nance (except depository institutions) and insurance,
in real estate and rental and leasing, and in depository
institutions (banks).

Outlays by investors from m ost m ajor geographic
areas increased. Outlays from Europe increased sub­
stantially. Overall, the outlays from Europe accounted
for m ore th an half o f the worldw ide total (chart 2).
Outlays from Canada, Asia and Pacific, and the M iddle
East also rose considerably.

(The sam e p attern held in 2006, when outlays for new
foreign direct investm ents grew 81 percent and overall
U.S. m ergers and acquisitions grew 44 percent.) In

Outlays in m anufacturing rose to $135.2 billion in
2007 from $56.3 billion in 2006 (table 3). W ithin m a n ­
ufacturing, the largest increases were in chemicals,

The United States is the country of ultimate beneficial owner for businesses newly acquired or established
by foreign investors that are ultimately owned by persons located in the United States (see the box “Key
Terms”).
N ote . For investments in which more than one investor participated, each investor and each investor’s
outlays are classified by the country of each individual ultimate beneficial owner.

Operations of acquired or established U.S.
businesses
In 2007, U.S. businesses that were newly acquired or
established by foreign direct investors em ployed
487,600 people, com pared w ith 223,400 people in 2006
(table 5). M anufacturing and retail trade— w ith
147,500 and 143,600 employees, respectively— ac­
counted for the largest shares o f em ploym ent. C om ­
bined, these two industries accounted for 60 percent o f
total em ploym ent by U.S. businesses that were newly
acquired or established by foreign direct investors.
Professional, scientific, and technical services ac­
counted for 29,500 employees.
In 2007, the total assets o f newly acquired or estab­
lished businesses were $455.9 billion, up from $375.8
billion in 2006. M anufacturing accounted for $169.7
billion; finance (except banks) and insurance, for $81.0
billion; and banks, for $68.0 billion. Together, these
three industries accounted for 70 percent o f total as­
sets.2
Land ow nership for newly acquired or established
businesses decreased to 364,000 hectares in 2007 from
m ore th an 1 m illion hectares in 2006. Net incom e o f
newly acquired or established U.S. affiliates was $7.7
billion in 2007, up from $2.9 billion in 2006. Total sales
were $179.1 billion, up from $80.2 billion.

R evisions
The estim ates of new foreign direct investm ent for
2007 are prelim inary. The estim ate o f total outlays for
2006 has been revised up 3 percent from the prelim i­
nary estim ate.3 In addition, the estim ates o f operating
data o f U.S. businesses acquired or established by for­
eign direct investors have been revised. The estim ate of
2. Because assets can be financed not only by funds from foreign direct
investors but also by funds from other owners and lenders, assets o f the
newly established or acquired U.S. affiliates generally will exceed the related
investment outlays.

States: New Investment in 2006,” Survey 87 (June 2007): 44-51.

June 2008

em ploym ent has been revised up 4 percent from the
prelim inary estimate; the estim ate o f total assets has
been revised up 5 percent; the estim ate o f sales has
been revised up 1 percent; and the estim ate o f net in ­
com e has been revised dow n 7 percent.

Technical Note
Estimates of new foreign direct investm ent, which
cover U.S. business enterprises that were acquired or
established by foreign direct investors during the year,
are based on data reported in surveys conducted by the
Bureau o f Econom ic Analysis (BEA). For the prelim i­
nary estim ates for 2007, BEA also relied on estim ates
for reports not yet received. Each year, BEA receives
survey reports after the prelim inary estim ates are p u b ­
lished. To make the prelim inary estim ates as accurate
as possible, BEA augm ents the reported data w ith esti­
m ates for late reports.

Availability of New Investment Data
Summary estimates of the outlays by foreign direct
investors to acquire or to establish businesses in the
United States are presented in this article. More
detailed estimates by industry and by country for
1980-2007 are available on BEA’s Web site at
<www.bea.gov>.

Discontinuation of New Investment Series
In order to align its programs with available funding,
B E A is eliminating the survey of new foreign direct
investment in the United States. The last report in this
series, which will present data on new investment by
foreign direct investors in 2008, will appear in the lune
2009 S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s in e s s . B E A will continue to
collect extensive data on foreign direct investment in
the United States, but it will no longer be able to sepa­
rately identify the portion accounted for by invest­
ments in newly acquired or established U.S. affiliates.

acquisition. For newly established businesses, the data are projections for the first full year of operations.

S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s in e s s

For the survey, a U.S. business enterprise is catego­
rized as “established” if the foreign parent or its exist­
ing U.S. affiliate creates a new legal entity that is
organized and operated as a new U.S. business enter­
prise or that directly purchases U.S. real estate.4 A U.S.
business enterprise is categorized as “acquired” if (1) a
foreign p arent or its U.S. affiliate obtains a voting in ­
terest o f 10 percent or m ore in the equity o f an existing
U.S. business enterprise and continues to operate the
enterprise as a separate legal entity; (2) a foreign p ar­
ent or its U.S. affiliate purchases a business segm ent or
an operating un it o f an existing U.S. business and o r­
ganizes it as a new separate legal entity; or (3) an exist­
ing U.S. affiliate purchases a U.S. business, a segm ent
o f a U.S. business, or an operating unit o f a U.S. busi­
ness and merges it into its ow n operations.
The estim ates o f new foreign direct investm ent do
not cover the acquisition o f additional equity in an ex­
isting U.S. affiliate, the acquisition o f an existing U.S.
affiliate by one foreign investor from another, or the
expansion in the operations o f an existing U.S. affiliate
when no separate legal entity is created. Selloffs or
other disinvestm ents are n o t netted against the new in ­
vestm ents. (For m ore inform ation, see the box “Data
4. The number of new U.S. businesses established is not the same as the
number o f “greenfield” investments, which typically refers to the construc­
tion o f new plants or other business facilities. First, direct purchases o f U.S.
real estate— which often involve purchases of existing office buildings,
hotels, retail stores, shopping centers, or other property— are included in
the “established” measure but are not considered “greenfield” investments.
Second, new plants that are built by existing U.S. affiliates are considered
“greenfield” investments, but they are included in these data as “estab­
lished” businesses only if they are set up as separate legal entities.

on Foreign Direct Investm ent in the U nited States”)
A U.S. business that is acquired or established by a
foreign direct investor or by an existing U.S. affiliate of
a foreign investor and that has total assets o f m ore than
$3 m illion or owns 200 acres or m ore of U.S. land is re­
quired to file a full report w ith BEA. In addition, a U.S.
business enterprise that is acquired by an existing U.S.
affiliate o f a foreign investor and m erged into the o p er­
ations o f the affiliate m ust file a full report if the total
cost o f the acquisition exceeds $3 m illion or if the ac­
quired enterprise ow ned 200 acres or m ore o f U.S.
land. To reduce the reporting burden, sm aller U.S.
businesses that have total assets o f $3 m illion or less
and that own fewer than 200 acres o f U.S. land are p er­
m itted to file shorter, partial reports.5
BEA prepares estim ates to account for data not col­
lected on the partial reports and com bines these esti­
mates w ith the data it collects on the full reports.
Because the businesses that file partial reports are so
small, they generally have a negligible im pact on the
published aggregates. For example, in 2006, the total
assets of U.S. businesses that filed partial reports were
$166.4 m illion, less than 0.1 percent o f the total assets
o f all newly acquired or established U.S. affiliates.
A lthough the values for the partial reports are gen­
erally negligible, the num ber o f partial reports is sig­
nificant. For example, in 2006, BEA received 1,165
partial reports and 725 full reports. F urtherm ore,
the num ber of businesses that are subject to partial

Data on Foreign Direct investment in the United States
In addition to the data on new foreign direct investment
presented in this article, BEA collects and publishes two
other broad sets of data on foreign direct investment in
the United States: Financial and operating data of U.S.
affiliates and balance-of-payments and direct-investment-position data.
Financial and operating data of U.S. affiliates are pub­
lished at both the enterprise level and the establishment
level. Detailed enterprise-level financial and operating
data were most recently published in “U.S. Affiliates of
Foreign Companies: Operations in 2005” in the August
2007 S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s in e s s ; the article includes a
description of the three types of data. Summary estimates
for 2006 were presented in the April 17, 2008, news
release “Summary Estimates for Multinational Compa­
nies: Employment, Sales, and Capital Expenditures for
2006,” which is available on BEA’s Web site
<www.bea.gov>. Financial and operating data at the




37

establishment level are available for selected years as a
result of a project that links BEA’s enterprise data for U.S.
affiliates with the Census Bureau’s establishment data for
all U.S. companies. The most recent data are published in
Foreign Direct Investment in the United States: Estab­
lishment D ata for 2002, which is available on BEA’s Web

site.
The balance-of-payments and direct-investment-position data were published in “The International Invest­
ment Position of the United States at Yearend 2006” and
“Direct Investment Positions for 2006: Country and
Industry Detail” in the July 2007 S u r v e y , in “Foreign
Direct Investment in the United States: Detail for Historical-Cost Position and Related Capital and Income Flows
for 2004-2006” in the September 2007 S u r v e y , and in
“U.S. International Transactions in 2007” in the April
2008 S u r v e y . Revised and updated data will be published
in the July and September 2008 issues.

reporting m ay be higher than the actual num ber o f
partial reports that BEA receives because not all o f the
sm aller U.S. businesses acquired or established by for­
eigners file reports. BEA makes every effort to contact
all U.S. businesses that may have been newly acquired
or established by foreigners, b u t it m ust concentrate its
resources on ensuring com pliance w ith reporting re­
quirem ents by larger businesses.
O f the 725 full reports filed for 2006, 526 reported
investm ents to acquire an existing U.S. business, and
199 reported investm ents to establish a new U.S. busi­
ness. For 2007, BEA estim ates that 802 businesses will
have filed full reports by the tim e the revised estim ates

Acknowledgments
The data presented in this article are from BEA’s sur­
vey of new foreign direct investment in the United
States. The survey was conducted under the supervi­
sion of Dorrett E. Williams, with contributions by
Carmene T. Brown, Constance T. Deve, Edward J.
Kozerka, Y. Louise Ku-Graf, and Daniel K. Wakjira.
Neeta B. Kapoor programmed the tables.

6. As noted earlier, the preliminary estimates include BEA estimates of
late reports. Estimates of each data item covered by the survey are prepared,
and they cover both full and partial reports. BEA also estimates the number
o f full reports, but it does not estimate the number of partial reports,
because this number fluctuates considerably from year to year.

N ote . Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is
the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

N ote . Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses weights
of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line following
change in private inventories is the difference between gross domestic product and the sum of final sales of domestic product
and of change in private inventories; the residual line following structures is the difference between gross domestic product
and the sum of the detailed lines of goods, of services, and of structures.

government consumption of fixed capital.
N o te . Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chaintype quantity index and the 2000 current-dollar value of the corresponding
series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes
uses weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar esti­
mates are usually not additive. The residual line is the difference between the
first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

1. Excludes software “embedded,” orbund ed, in comf uters and ther equiprnent.




1. The quantity index for computers can be used to accurately measure the real growth of this component. However,
because computers exhibit rapid changes in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar estimates
should not be used to measure the component’s relative importance or its contribution to the growth rate of more aggregate
series; accurate estimates of these contributions are shown in table 1.5.2 and real growth rates are shown in table 1.5.1.
2. Excludes software “embedded,” or bundled, in computers and other equipment.
N o t e . The residual line is the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

3. Net domestic income deflated by the implicit price deflator for net domestic product.
Note. Except as noted in footnotes 1, 2 and 3, chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type
quantity index and the 2000 current-dollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the
chain-type quantity indexes uses weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not
additive.

1. Estimates for financial corporate business and nonfinancial corporate business for 2000 and earlier periods are based on the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC); later estimates for these industries are
based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).
2. The current-dollar gross value added is deflated using the gross value added chain-type price index for nonfinancial industries from the GDP-by-industry accounts. For periods when this price index is not available,
the chain-type price index for GDP goods and structures is used.
3. Chained-dollar consumption of fixed capital of nonfinancial corporate business is calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 current-dollar value of the corresponding series, divided by
100.
4. Chained-dollar net value added of nonfinancial corporate business is the difference between the gross product and the consumption of fixed capital.

N ote. Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses weights
of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is the differ­
ence between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

1. Government consumption expenditures are services (such as education and national defense) produced by government

2. Gross government investment consists of general government and government enterprise expenditures for fixed assets;
inventory investment is included in government consumption expenditures.
Note. Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is the
difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

1. Government consumption expenditures are services (such as education and national defense) produced by government that are valued at their cost of production. Excludes government sales to other sectors and
government own-account investment (construction and software).
2. Consumption of fixed capital, or depreciation, is included in government gross output as a partial measure of the services of general government fixed assets; the use of depreciation assumes a zero net return on
these assets.
3. Includes general government intermediate inputs for goods and services sold to other sectors and for own-account investment.
4. Own-account investment is measured in current dollars by compensation of general government employees and related expenditures for goods and services and is classified as investment in structures and in soft­
ware in table 3.9.5.

1. Government consumption expenditures are services (such as education and national defense) produced by government that are valued at their cost of production. Excludes government sales to other sectors and
government own-account investment (construction and software).
2. Consumption of fixed capital, or depreciation, is included in government gross output as a partial measure of the services of general government fixed assets; the use of depreciation assumes a zero net return on
these assets.
3. Includes general government intermediate inputs for goods and services sold to other sectors and for own-account investment.
4. Own-account investment is measured in current dollars by compensation of general government employees and related expenditures for goods and services and is classified as investment in structures and in soft­
ware in table 3.9.5.

1. Government consumption expenditures are services (such as education and national defense) produced by government that are valued at their cost ot production. Excludes government sales to other sectors and
government own-account investment (construction and software).
2. Consumption of fixed capital, or depreciation, is included in government gross output as a partial measure of the services of general government fixed assets; the use of depreciation assumes a zero net return on
these assets.
3. Includes general government intermediate inputs for goods and services sold to other sectors and for own-account investment.
4. Own-account investment is measured in current dollars by compensation of general government employees and related expenditures for goods and services and is classified as investment in structures and in
software in table 3.9.5.
Note. Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 current-dollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type
quantity indexes uses weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed
lines.

1. National defense consumption expenditures are defense services produced by government that are valued at their
cost of production. Excludes government sales to other sectors and government own-account investment (construction
and software).
2. Consumption of fixed capital, or depreciation, is included in government gross output as a partial measure of the
services of general government fixed assets; the use of depreciation assumes a zero net return on these assets.
3. Includes general government intermediate inputs for goods and sen/ices sold to other sectors and for own-account
investment.
4. Own-account investment is measured in current dollars by compensation of general government employees and
related expenditures for goods and services and is classified as investment in structures and in software.
5. Gross government investment consists of general government and government enterprise expenditures for fixed
assets; inventory investment is included in government consumption expenditures.
Note. Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is
the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

1. Exports and imports of certain goods, primarily military equipment purchased and sold by the Federal Government,
are included in services. Beginning with 1986, repairs and alterations of equipment are reclassified from goods to services.
2. The quantity index for computers can be used to accurately measure the real growth of this component. However,
because computers exhibit rapid changes in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar estimates
should not be used to measure the component’s relative importance or its contribution to the growth rate of more aggregate
series; accurate estimates of these contributions are shown in table 4.2.2. and real growth rates are shown in table 4.2.1.
3. Includes parts of foods, feeds, and beverages, of nondurable industrial supplies and materials, and of nondurable
nonautomotive consumer goods.
Note. Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. For exports and for
imports, the residual line is the difference between the aggregate line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

1. Consists primarily of religious, educational, vocational, lodging, railroads, farm, and amusement and recreational
structures, net purchases of used structures, and brokers’ commissions on the sale of structures.
2. The quantity index for computers can be used to accurately measure the real growth rate of this component.
However, because computers exhibit rapid changes in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar
estimates should not be used to measure the component’s relative importance or its contribution to the growth rate of more
aggregate series; accurate estimates of these contributions are shown in table 5.3.2 and real growth rates are shown in
table 5.3.1.
3. Excludes software “embedded,” or bundled, in computers and other equipment.
4. Includes communication equipment, nonmedical instruments, medical equipment and instruments, photocopy and
related equipment, and office and accounting equipment.
5. Consists primarily of furniture and fixtures, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, mining and oilfield
machinery, service industry machinery, and electrical equipment not elsewhere classified.
6. Consists primarily of manufactured homes, improvements, dormitories, net purchases of used structures, and
brokers’ commissions on the sale of residential structures.
7. Excludes net purchases of used structures and brokers’ commissions on the sale of structures.
N o te . Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is
the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

1. This series is derived from the Census Bureau series “current cost inventories.”
2. The inventory valuation adjustment (IVA) shown in this table differs from the IVA that adjusts business incomes. The
IVA in this table reflects the mix of methods (such as first-in, first-out and last-in, first-out) underlying inventories derived
primarily from Census Bureau statistics (see footnote 1). This mix differs from that underlying business income derived
primarily from Internal Revenue Service statistics.
Note. Estimates in this table are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

Estimates in this table are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).
Chained (2000) dollar series for real change in private inventories are calculated as the period-to-period change in
chained-dollar end-of-period inventories. Quarterly changes in end-of-period inventories are stated at annual rates.
Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses weights of more than one period, the corresponding chaineddollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is the difference between the first line and the sum of the most
detailed lines.

1. Inventories are as of the end of the quarter. The quarter-to-quarter change in inventories calculated from currentdollar inventories in this table is not the current-dollar change in private inventories component of GDP. The former is the
difference between two inventory stocks, each valued at its 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, the change in private inventories is stated at annual rates.
2. Quarterly totals at monthly rates. Final sales of domestic business equals final sales of domestic product less gross
output of general government, gross value added of nonprofit institutions, compensation paid to domestic workers, and
space rent for owner-occupied housing. It includes a small amount of final sales by farm and by government enterprises.
Note. Estimates in this table are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

1. Inventories are as of the end of the quarter. The quarter-to-quarter changes calculated from this table are at quarterly
rates, whereas the change in private inventories component of GDP is stated at annual rates.
2. Quarterly totals at monthly rates. Final sales of domestic business equals final sales of domestic product less gross
output of general government, gross value added of nonprofit institutions, compensation paid to domestic workers, and
space rent for owner-occupied housing. It includes a small amount of final sales by farm and by government enterprises.
Note. Estimates in this table are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).
Chained (2000) dollar inventory series are calculated to ensure that the chained (2000) dollar change in inventories for
2000 equals the current-dollar change in inventories for 2000 and that the average of the 1999 and 2000 end-of-year
chain-weighted and fixed-weighted inventories are equal.

3. Consists of personal consumption expenditures, private fixed investment, and gross government investment.
Note. Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is
the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines, excluding the lines in the addenda.

1. Represents gains or losses on foreign-currency-denominated assets and liabilities due to their revaluation at
current exchange rates.
2. Includes changes in coverage, capital gains and losses of direct investment affiliates, and other adjustments
to the value of assets and liabilities.
3. Financial flows and valuation adjustments for financial derivatives are available only on a net basis, which is
shown on line 2; they are not separately available for gross positive fair values and gross negative fair values of
financial derivatives. Consequently, columns (a) through (d) on lines 4,5, and 24,25 are not available.
4. Data are not separately available for the three types of valuation adjustments; therefore, the sum of all three
types is shown in column (d). Price changes result from changes in the value of derivatives contracts due to
changes in the value of their underlying assets or reference rates, which may arise from movements in interest
rates, stock prices, commodity prices, or other variables. Exchange-rate changes result from the revaluation of
foreign-currency-denominated derivatives contracts at current exchange rates. “Other changes” can result when

N o t e . Totals shown for the United States differ from the national income and product account estimates of gross
domestic product (GDP) because GDP by state excludes and national GDP includes the compensation of Federal civilian
and military personnel stationed abroad and government consumption of fixed capital for military structures located abroad




and for military equipment, except office equipment. Also, GDP by state and national GDP have different revision schedules.
Source: This table reflects the GDP-by-state estimates for 2007 that were released on June 5, 2008.

1. Per capita personal income was computed using Census Bureau midyear population estimates.
2. Percent change calculated from unrounded data.
3. The personal income level shown for the United States is derived as the sum of the county estimates. It
differs from the estimate of personal income in the national income and product accounts because of differ­
ences in coverage, in the methodologies used to prepare the estimates, and in the timing of the availability of
source data.

Statistical Conventions

Current-dollar GDP is a measure of the market value
of goods, services, and structures that are produced in
the economy in a particular period. The changes in cur­
rent-dollar GDP can be decomposed into quantity and
price components. Quantities, or “real” measures, and
prices are expressed as index numbers with the reference
year—at present, the year 2000—equal to 100.1
The annual changes in quantities and prices are calcu­
lated using a Fisher formula that incorporates weights
from 2 adjacent years. For example, the annual percent
change in real GDP for 2001-2002 uses prices for 2001
and 2002 as weights, and the 2001-2002 annual percent
change in the GDP price index uses quantities for 2001
and 2002 as weights. Because the Fisher formula allows
for the effects of changes in relative prices and in the
composition of output over time, the resulting quantity
or price changes are not affected by the substitution bias
that is associated with changes in quantities and prices
calculated using a fixed-weighted formula. These annual
changes are “chained” (multiplied) together to form time
series of quantity and price indexes. The percent changes
in the Fisher indexes are not affected by the choice of the
reference year.
BEA also publishes implicit price deflators (IPDs),
which are calculated as the ratio of the current-dollar
value of a component to the chained-dollar value of the
component, multiplied by 100. The values of an IPD are
very close to the values of the corresponding “chain-type”
price index.
The measures of real GDP and its major components
are also presented in dollar-denominated form, desig­
nated “chained (2000) dollar estimates.” For most series,
these estimates are computed by multiplying the cur­
rent-dollar value in 2000 by a corresponding quantity
index number and then dividing by 100. For example, if a
current-dollar GDP component equaled $100 in 2000
and if real output for this component increased by 10
percent in 2001, then the chained (2000) dollar value of
this component in 2001 would be $110 ($100 x 1.10).
The percent changes calculated from the chained (2000)
dollar estimates and from the quantity indexes are the
same; any differences will be small and due to rounding.
The chained-dollar values for the detailed GDP com­
ponents will not necessarily sum to the chained-dollar
estimate of GDP (or to any intermediate aggregate) in a
table, because the relative prices that are used as weights
for any period other than the reference year differ from
those of the reference year. A measure of the effect of such

differences is provided by a “residual” line—the differ­
ence between the chained-dollar value of the main aggre­
gate in the table and the sum of the most detailed
components in the table. For periods close to the refer­
ence year, when the relative prices that are used as weights
have usually not changed much, the residuals tend to be
small, and the chained-dollar estimates can be used to
approximate the contributions to growth and to aggre­
gate the detailed estimates. For periods further from the
reference year, the residuals tend to be larger, and the
chained-dollar estimates are less useful for analyses of
contributions to growth. In particular, for components
for which relative prices are changing rapidly, the calcula­
tion of contributions based on chained-dollar estimates
may be misleading even just a few years from the refer­
ence year. Thus, contributions derived from quantity
indexes provide a better measure than contributions
derived from chained-dollar estimates; contributions
based on quantity indexes are shown in selected NIPA
tables 1.1.2, 1.2.2, 1.5.2, 2.3.2, 3.9.2, 4.2.2, and 5.3.2.
For quarters and months, NIPA estimates are pre­
sented at annual rates, which show the value that would
be registered if the rate of activity that is measured for a
quarter or for a month were maintained for a full year.
Annual rates are used so that periods of different
lengths—for example, quarters and years—may be more
easily compared. These annual rates are determined sim­
ply by multiplying the estimated rate of activity by 4 (for
quarterly data) or by 12 (for monthly data).
For most quarterly NIPA estimates, percent changes in
the estimates are also expressed at annual rates. Calculat­
ing these changes requires a variant of the compound
interest formula:
\

r =

X<

m/h
- 1

X

1 0 0

where r is the percent change at an annual rate; xt is the
level of activity in the later period; is the level of activ­
ity in the earlier period; m is the periodicity of the data
(for example, 1 for annual data, 4 for quarterly data, or 12
for monthly data); and n is the number of periods
between the earlier periods and the later periods (that
is, / - 0 ) .
Quarterly and monthly NIPA estimates are seasonally
adjusted if necessary. Seasonal adjustment removes from
the time series the average effects of variations that nor­
mally occur at about the same time and in about the same
magnitude each year—for example, weather, holidays,
and tax payment dates. After seasonal adjustment, cycli­
cal and other short-term changes in the economy stand
out more clearly.

International accounts
The international accounts encompass the interna­
tional transactions accounts, direct investment, and
international transactions in services.
International transactions accounts. The Balance
of Payments of the United States: Concepts, Data
Sources, and Estimating Procedures (1990) describes the
methodologies used to prepare the estimates in the
ITAs and the international investment position of the
United States. These methodologies are usually up­
dated and improved as part of the annual revisions of
the international transactions accounts.
The annual revisions of the international transac­
tions accounts are described in a series of articles, the
latest of which was published in the July
