the BUSINESS SITUATION

s

OURCE data that became available
for the 75-day estimate of the fourth
quarter of 1985 rounded out the view
of economic developments provided by
the national income and product accounts (NIPA's).1 Data on domestic
corporate profits become available for
the fourth quarter at the time of the
75-day, rather than the 45-day, estimate because most corporations' fiscal
years end in the fourth quarter and
additional time is needed to complete
their end-of-year reports. This information, in combination with information on international investment
income from surveys and other quarterly reports, provided the basis for
the first direct estimate of fourthquarter corporate profits on a NIPA
basis. The corporate profits estimates,
in turn, made it possible to estimate
profits taxes and thus to complete the
estimates of the receipts side of the
government sector accounts, providing—in conjunction with the expenditures side—a full view of the government fiscal position. Fourth-quarter
developments in corporate profits and
in the government sector are discussed in the first two sections of the
"Business Situation/'
December data on merchandise
trade on the revised statistical month
basis became available for the 75-day
estimate of the net exports component of GNP. (These data more than
accounted for the revision from the
45-day to the 75-day estimate of GNP;
see table 2 at the end of the "Business
Situation.") In addition, the estimate
of net exports incorporated the information on investment income already
mentioned and newly available information on other services. This information is initially assembled for the
international transactions accounts—
often referred to as the balance of
payments accounts—and incorporated
1. The "flash" estimate of GNP, which had been
prepared at the same time as the 75-day estimates,
has been discontinued.




in the NIPA's after several adjustments. (See table 1 on page 6 for a
reconciliation of NIPA net exports
and the corresponding measure in the
balance of payments accounts.) The
article "U.S. International Transactions" in this issue provides an indepth review of the fourth quarter
and year 1985 in terms of the balance
of payments. The third section of the
"Business Situation" uses NIPA aggregates to provide a longer run overview of international developments in
a NIPA framework.
Corporate profits
Profits from current production—
profits before tax plus inventory valuation adjustment (IVA) and capital
consumption adjustment (CCAdj)—
were unchanged, at $309 billion, in
the fourth quarter, following a $21
billion increase in the third. A decline
in domestic profits of nonfinancial
corporations offset increases in domestic profits of financial corporations and in profits from the rest of
the world.2
2. Quarterly estimates in the NIPA's are expressed
at seasonally adjusted annual rates, and quarterly
changes in them are differences between these rates.
Quarter-to-quarter percent changes are annualized.
Real, or constant-dollar, estimates are expressed in
1982 dollars.

Domestic profits of nonfinancial
corporations declined $5*/2 billion in
the fourth quarter, following a $21
billion increase in the third, as the
effect of a 2-percent increase in real
gross corporate product was more
than offset by that of a drop in profits
per unit of product. The drop in unit
profits, in turn, reflected a smaller increase in unit prices than in unit
costs; unit labor costs fully accounted
for the cost increase, as unit nonlabor
costs were unchanged.
Domestic profits of financial corporations increased $1 billion in the
fourth quarter, following a $lx/2 billion increase in the third. Profits
from the rest of the world increased
$4 ¥2 billion, following a decline of
$1V2 billion.
The current quarterly estimates of
profits from cur rent"production and
the other measures of profits estimated in the NIPA framework are prepared by extrapolation using tabulations of samples of corporate financial
reports. Special adjustments to ac^
count for charges not attributable to
current production were unusually
large in the third and fourth quarters; they are discussed in the note at
the end of this section.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
the fourth quarter, to $240 billion, following a $10 billion increase. The contrast between the flatness in profits
from current production and the increase in PBT reflects changes in the
IVA, which declined $15 billion to
negative $10 billion, and in the
CCAdj, which increased $3% billion to
$79% billion; both of these adjustments are reflected in the current
production measure but not in PBT.
The IVA converts the value of inventory withdrawals from the mixture of historical and replacement
costs that underlie PBT to current replacement costs. When, as in the
fourth quarter, current replacement
costs of inventory withdrawals are
higher than the costs that underlie
PBT, the IVA is negative in order to
remove the resulting capital-gainslike element.
The CCAdj converts depreciation
charges from those that underlie PBT
to a consistent accounting basis (i.e.,
straight-line depreciation and uniform
service lives) and to current replacement costs. The fourth-quarter increase in the CCAdj was largely due
to the effect of the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, which allowed
shorter service lives for depreciable
capital. The increase was considerably
smaller than in many earlier quarters, reflecting depreciation charges
that corporations reported in the
fourth quarter.
Profits with IVA but without
CCAdj.—The measure of profits available by industry declined $3 ¥2 billion
in the fourth quarter, following a
$12% billion increase.
An $8% billion drop in the profits
of nonfinancial corporations was fully
accounted for by a drop in trade profits. Both wholesale and retail trade
registered large declines because of
increased inventory prices; without
the IVA, both would have registered
increases. In manufacturing, large
changes were recorded for producers
of motor vehicles and chemicals.
Motor vehicles profits increased $3
billion, partly reflecting reduced costs
of sales-incentive programs. Chemicals profits dropped $2 billion; the decline was industry-wide, affecting producers regardless of firm size or type
of chemical produced.
A $1 billion increase in the profits
of financial corporations reflected an
increase in profits of depository insti-

quarter, the catchup in refund payments led to a large decline in tax
payments. The catchup also affected
the third-quarter change, but not the
level, of tax payments. A comparison
with a year earlier removes the, effects of these fluctuations: The fourthquarter 1985 combined government
sector deficit of $165 billion was $38
billion higher than a year ago, due to
a $31V2 billion increase in the Federal
deficit and a $6V2 billion decline in
the State and local surplus.
The Federal sector.—The Federal
Government deficit increased $23 billion in the fourth quarter to $224 billion, as expenditures increased more
than receipts.
Receipts increased $15 Va billion,
compared with $36 billion in the third
quarter. All categories of receipts increased in the fourth quarter. The increase in personal tax and nontax receipts ($7 billion) and in contributions
for social insurance ($5 billion) reflected strong gains in incomes. The
increase in indirect business tax and
nontax accruals includes $1 billion
from an increase in the alcohol excise
tax to $12.50, from $10.50, per gallon
of 100-proof liquor, effective October
1.
Expenditures increased $38 Vk billion, compared with $28 billion in the
third quarter. Purchases of goods and
services, which amounted to slightly
more than 35 percent of total expenditures, accounted for over 50 percent
of the fourth-quarter increase. Nondefense purchases increased $17 Vfe billion; defense purchases, $2 billion.
Purchases of agricultural commodities
by the Commodity Credit Corporation
(CCC) accounted for the increase in
nondefense purchases. The CCC's net
acquisition of agricultural commodities was a record $30 billion ($33%
billion in real terms) and included
$13% billion of corn, $5% billion of
soybeans, and $3 billion of cotton.
(The previous high net acquisition
was $15% billion ($17 billion in real
terms) in the fourth quarter of 1982).
The small increase in national defense purchases followed a $14 billion
increase in the third quarter; the sharp
deceleration was more than accounted
for by purchases of military hardware. These purchases declined $5%
billion in the fourth quarter, in contrast to an $8% billion increase in the
third.




SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
All other expenditures combined increased $18% billion. Of a $10 billion
increase in subsidies less the current
surplus of government enterprises,
subsidy payments to farmers accounted for $6 billion; an increase in the
CCC enterprise deficit accounted for
the remainder. Net interest paid increased $6 billion, reflecting an increase in borrowings to finance the
deficit. Grants-in-aid to State and
local governments increased $1% billion; grants for sewage treatment
plant construction and for medicaid
accounted for the increase.
Cyclically adjusted surplus or deficit.—When measured using cyclical
adjustments based on middle-expansion trend GNP, the Federal fiscal position moved from a deficit of $206 billion in the third quarter to a deficit of
$227 billion in the fourth (see the article later in this issue for revised and
updated estimates of the cyclically adjusted budget). The cyclically adjusted
deficit as a percentage of middle-expansion trend GNP increased from
5.2 percent in the third quarter to 5.6
percent in the fourth.
The State and local sector.—The
State and local government surplus
increased $2x/2 billion in the fourth
quarter to $59% billion, as receipts
increased more than expenditures.
The increase in the total surplus was
shared by social insurance funds and
other funds.
Receipts increased $8 billion, compared with $12 billion in the third
quarter. All categories of receipts increased. The increase in personal tax
and nontax receipts reflected a strong
increase in incomes, and that in indirect business tax and nontax receipts
largely reflected an increase in property taxes.
Expenditures increased $5% billion,
compared with $12 billion in the third
quarter. The deceleration was largely
accounted for by purchases of goods
and services; they increased $5 billion
in the fourth quarter, compared with
$10% billion in the third. Compensation of employees more than accounted for the increase in the fourth quarter; all other purchases combined declined $x/2 billion. Purchases of structures declined $4 billion, an $8 billion
shift from the third-quarter increase.
Declines in all major types of construction purchases were paced by a
$3 billion drop in highways.

All other expenditures combined increased $% billion. The increase in
the current surplus of government enterprises was the result of a lottery
started on October 1 in California.
Real net exports
In the fourth quarter of 1985, real
net exports reached a record low of
negative $141 billion. From their peak
of $74 billion in the third quarter of
1980, net exports declined $215 billion. Over this period, declines were
registered in most quarters (chart 1).
Most of the decline in net exports
was in 1983-85. From their peak in
the third quarter of 1980 to the fourth
quarter of 1982, when the trough of
the 1981-82 recession was reached,
net exports declined $62% billion.3
Exports declined $47 Va billion, at an
average annual rate of 5.7 percent, aecounting for about three-quarters of
the decline in net exports. Imports increased $14% billion, at a rate of 2.1
percent. Over the next 3 years, a
period coincident with the current recovery and expansion, net exports
plummeted, turning negative in the
second quarter of 1983 and registering
a decline of $152%- billion by the
fourth quarter of 1985. During this
period, imports were by far the more
3. The trough in real GNP was reached in the third
quarter of 1982. The National Bureau of Economic Research places the reference business cycle trough in
the fourth quarter.

dynamic component; they increased
$1751/2 billion, at an average annual
rate of 15.5 percent. By contrast, exports increased only $23 billion, at a
rate of 2.3 percent.
The divergence in movements of exports and imports led, in turn, to a divergence between rates of growth of
real GNP, which includes exports and
excludes imports, and real gross domestic purchases, which includes imports and excludes exports. (The quarterly NIPA tables now regularly include a reconciliation of GNP and
gross domestic purchases; see NIPA
table 1.6.) When net exports are positive, GNP exceeds gross domestic purchases. The gap between the former, a
measure of U.S. production, and the
latter, a measure of U.S. demand,
narrowed from the third quarter of
1980, as net exports declined, but remained positive. After net exports
turned negative in the second quarter
of 1983, gross domestic purchases exceeded GNP, and the gap between the
two generally widened (chart 2). Gross




domestic purchases increased at an
average annual rate of 5.4 percent
since that quarter, and GNP increased at a rate of 4.0 percent.
U.S. demand outpaced U.S. production during most of the 1983-85
period, and an increasing portion of
U.S. demand was met by imports. Imports, which met 11 percent of U.S.
demand in the second quarter of 1983,
met 13 percent by the fourth quarter
of 1985.
Another comparison related to net
exports is that of real GNP and real
command-basis GNP. Command-basis
GNP, because it is adjusted for
changes in the terms of trade, measures command over goods and services resulting from current production. (The quarterly NIPA tables now
regularly include command-basis
GNP; see NIPA table l.ll)4
The difference in the quarterly
movements of command-basis GNP
and GNP, shown in chart 2, mirrors
the impact of changes in the terms of
trade. The terms of trade, calculated
in this context as the ratio of the exports implicit price deflator to the imports implicit price deflator (multiplied by 100), affect the quantity of
foreign goods and services that the
United States could buy with its exports. As shown in chart 3, the terms
of trade declined in the first half of
1980, continuing a slide under the
impact of the 1979 petroleum price increase, and then moved irregularly
higher to the fourth quarter of 1983.
From the third quarter of 1980 to the
4. The difference between the two measures stems
from the difference in the deflation procedures used
for their net exports components. To obtain the constant-dollar measure of net exports for GNP, BEA deflates the current-dollar value of exports by export
prices and the current-dollar value of imports by
import prices and then subtracts deflated imports
from deflated exports. In contrast, to obtain the constant-dollar measure of net exports for command-basis
GNP, BEA deflates both current-dollar exports and
imports by the implicit price deflator for imports. For
a detailed exposition of command counterparts of BEA
production measures and their derivation, see Edward
F. Denison, "International Transactions in Measures
of the Nation's Production," SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS 61 (May 1981): 17-22.

rate of 0.3 percent. The result was improvement in the terms of trade at an
average annual rate of 4 percent. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 1983,
the improvement slowed sharply: The
exports deflator changed little while
the imports deflator declined slightly,
resulting in improvement at an average annual rate of 0.3 percent.
Over the early part of the 1980-85
period, when the terms of trade registered strong improvement, commandbasis GNP increased at an average
annual rate of 2.4 percent, and GNP
increased at a rate of 1.9 percent.
Since then, when the rate of improvement in the terms of trade was much
less, the average annual rates of
growth of command-basis GNP and
GNP were about the same. Thus, only
in the early part of the period did
U.S. command over goods and services increase faster than production.

Improved Deflation of Purchases of Computers
IN

Selection of the index
The IBM work described in the January SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS
resulted in four quality-adjusted price
indexes for each of four types of computing equipment—computer processors, disk drives, printers, and displays (terminals). One of the four indexes, the matched-model index, uses
the conventional method for controlling for the effects of quality change.
The other indexes all involve the use
of hedonic methods and are referred
to as the regression, the characteristics, and the composite indexes.
The matched-model index is formed
from the changes in prices for identical models that are sold in adjacent
years. This method is similar to that
used by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
for constructing the Producer Price
Indexes, components of which are
used by BEA for the deflation of most
other types of equipment in GNP. The
major strength of the matched-model
method is that, in principle, all characteristics are held constant in measuring the price change for each model
so that quality change is not erroneously included in the measured price

change.2 Use of the method thus requires the assumption that any price
change that coincides with new model
introductions is equal to the average
price change for matched models.
When the assumption is not met,
price indexes constructed using
matched-model methods may be
biased. Such bias will be small where
prices are relatively stable or where
the number of new models is relatively small. However, these conditions do
not hold for computers. New models
are introduced frequently, reflecting
rapid changes in technology, and
their introduction is frequently associated with major price reductions.
Hedonic methods, which are incorporated in the other three indexes,
impute the prices for all models for
all periods based on the characteristics of the models and their implicit
prices. Thus, they overcome the weakness of the matched-model index by
estimating the price change occasioned by the introduction of new
models. On the other hand, a weakness of hedonic methods is that they
hold constant only the most important and measurable characteristics
in deriving a quality-adjusted price
change. If a characteristic that is a
significant factor in the prices of
models is omitted, the price indexes
from the hedonic method may be
biased.
The differences among the alternative hedonic indexes relate to the way
and the extent to which the hedonic
function is used. The regression index
is formed from the coefficients in the
IBM regression equation on the
dummy variables for year or for technology class by year. It does not make
use of information on quantities; each
model is given equal weight regardless of the number shipped. The characteristics price index is formed from
the coefficients in the IBM regression

Indexes for Computer Processors and Selected Peripheral Equipment," SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS 66
(January 1986): 41-50.

Methods," SURVEY 66 (January 1986): 36-40.

the revised GNP estimates released in December 1985, new deflators for computers (processors and peripheral equipment) were used for
several components—producers' durable equipment, exports, imports, and
government purchases. The new deflators were constructed by BEA primarily from price indexes for computing equipment developed by IBM Corporation.1 This article discusses the
selection by BEA—from among the alternatives presented by IBM—of the
index most appropriate to the deflation of GNP, the construction of the
new deflators, and their use in the revised estimates. It concludes with an
evaluation of the new deflators.




equation on characteristics of the
equipment, such as speed or capacity.
The indexes are weighted by shipments of characteristics. The composite index uses both reported prices
and, for models not sold in the base
year, prices imputed from the regression equation. It is calculated as the
average of the ratios of current-year
prices to base-year prices for each
model, weighted by the number of
models shipped in the current year.
The characteristics price index and
the composite index are conceptually
equivalent as long as the correct characteristics are used.3
Of the four indexes, the composite
price index was chosen for the deflation of the GNP components because
it combines the strengths of the
matched-model and the hedonic methods, using the hedonic function to
impute the base-year price for models
not sold in the base year.
Construction of the deflators
A deflator for computers was constructed by combining the IBM composite indexes for computer processors, disk drives, printers, displays,
and a regression index for IBM tape
drives. The resulting deflator covered
the period 1972-84. It was extended
back to 1969 using information from
other studies of computer prices.
Prior to 1969, the deflator was held
constant at the 1969 level; the effect
on purchases in constant (1982) dollars of holding the index constant was
small.
A second deflator—covering both
computers and other office, computing, and accounting machinery—was
constructed using the new deflator for
computers and Producer Price Indexes for related machinery, weighted together using business purchases of
the two types of equipment. This deflator was needed for some of the

components of GNP for which separately identifiable data on computers
were not available, as described in the
next section. The deflators for computers and for office, computing, and
accounting machinery are shown in
table 1.
The preferred way to use the IBM
indexes for deflation purposes would
be to identify and deflate separately
the purchases of each of the five types
of computing equipment in each GNP
component. This approach would recognize differences in composition of
the equipment purchased by business-

es, government, and foreigners. It was
not used because data to implement it
are not available. Consequently, the
BEA deflator for computers was constructed by combining the indexes for
the five types of equipment using
shipments of domestic manufacturers
as weights.4 This approach assumes
that each type of purchaser acquired
the same mix of the five types of
equipment and that this mix is the
same as that of shipments of domestic
manufacturers.

For the two other components of

estimates were not available.
Evaluation of the deflators
The use of the new deflators for
computers represents a major improvement over the previously used
conventions of assuming no price
change for computers or of assuming
the same price changes as for related
products. Nevertheless, there are several problems with the information
used to construct the IBM price indexes and with the construction of
BEA's deflators from these indexes.
There are three major problems
with the information used to construct the IBM price indexes: (1) Coverage of the sample is limited to certain types of equipment and selected
manufacturers; (2) list, rather than
transaction, prices are included in the
sample; and (3) the information on
shipments is incomplete.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

March 1986

Corrections to the Estimates of Purchases of Computers
In January, in the editor's note that introduced the two articles about
the new price index for computers, BEA reported that it would be
making corrections to the estimates of business purchases of computers
that had been released as part of the comprehensive revision in December 1985. This note provides those corrections.
A summary review of the commodity-flow procedure, which is used to
prepare the annual estimates of business purchases of computers as well
as other components of producers' durable equipment (PDE), provides
the background needed to explain the corrections. As shown in table 1,
the commodity-flow procedure begins with the Census Bureau value of
new computers (processors and peripheral equipment) shipped from domestic manufacturing plants (line 1). This value is increased by imports
of computers (line 2), reduced by exports of computers (line 3), reduced
by intermediate purchases of computers—for example, peripheral equipment purchased by one plant from another for assembly of small computers (line 4), and reduced by the change in inventories of computers
held by wholesalers and retailers (line 5). The result is shipments to domestic purchasers (line 6). This shipments total is valued in producers'
prices; for GNP, it must reflect purchasers' prices, so transportation and
trade margins (line 7) are added.
The next element—a valuation adjustment for "own-use" equipment
(line 8)—is unique to the derivation of purchases of computers. The adjustment is made to manufacturers' shipments of computers produced for
use by the same company—either for lease by the company to others or
for operations within the company. It converts these shipments from the
manufacturers' sales price, the valuation that is required for reports to
the Census Bureau, to manufacturers' cost, the valuation appropriate for
fixed investment in the national income and product accounts (NIPA's).
Domestic purchases (line 9) is the value in GNP of purchases by government, persons, and domestic business. Source data on business purchases of equipment by type are not available, so that domestic business
purchases of computers (line 12) is derived by subtracting the value of
purchases by government (line 10) and purchases by persons—that is, for
nonbusiness use—(line 11) from domestic purchases.
The corrections presented in this note stem from problems in three elements of the commodity-flow procedure. All of the problems affect the
estimates of domestic purchases and business purchases. Purchases by
government and persons are not affected.
The first problem is in imports (line 2) and resulted from an improper
handling of a detailed import category. This category, which should be
included in the computer component of PDE, was included in another
PDE component from 1973 to 1983 and was omitted completely in 1984.
The correction raises imports and thus raises business purchases of computers. The size of the correction to this element for 1973-83 is shown in
column 5 of table 2 as the amount by which other PDE is reduced; in
1984, the correction is $1.0 billion.
The second problem is in exports (line 3) and resulted from an improper handling of a detailed export category beginning in 1977. This category, which should have been excluded from the export element because it
consists of parts, was incorrectly assumed to have included a substantial
amount of computers. The correction reduces exports and thus raises
business purchases of computers. The correction to this element appears
as the sum of columns 4 and 5 of table 2 for 1977-83; in 1984, the correction is $4.4 billion.
The third problem is in the transportation and trade margins (line 7)
and resulted from the use of an incorrect wholesale trade margin from
1972 to 1976. The margin had incorrectly accounted for expenses associated with leased computers. The correction reduces the margin and thus
reduces business purchases. The correction to this element is no more
than $0.3 billion in any year and appears as the sum of columns 4 and 5
of table 2 for 1972-76.
As shown in table 2, the corrections have the same effect on business
purchases of computers and on PDE and GNP in 1972 and 1984; for
1973-83, the effects are different because the correction for imports is offsetting within PDE. In 1972, the corrections reduce current-dollar business purchases of computers by $0.2 billion and reduce constant-dollars
purchases by a very small amount. In 1984, the corrections increase current-dollar purchases by $5.4 billion and increase constant-dollar purchases by $7.9 billion. The, corrections raise the average annual rate of
increase of constant-dollar business purchases of computers from 1972 to
1984 from 36 percent to 39 percent per year; for total PDE, the increase
is about unchanged at 4Va percent per year. It is not yet possible to estimate the corrections for 1985, but it is likely that they will increase purchases by about the same amount as in 1984.
The corrections shown in table 2 have not been incorporated into
NIPA estimates, including the NIPA estimates that appear elsewhere in

this issue of the SURVEY. Corrections that affect estimates prior to 1983
will be incorporated in the next comprehensive NIPA revision. Corrections that affect estimates for 1983 forward will be reflected in an annual
NIPA revision scheduled for this July; this revision also will reflect the
incorporation into the elements of the commodity-flow procedure of
source data that regularly become available for an annual revision.
In addition, this annual revision will reflect the incorporation, beginning in 1983, of newly available source data for two elements of the commodity-flow procedure used to derive business purchases. First, for computers purchased by persons for nonbusiness use, BEA will replace the
assumption that persons do not purchase computers. Information to be
released from the Bureau of Labor Statistics 1984 Consumer Expenditures Survey will provide the basis for estimating the total value of these
purchases. The resulting revision will reduce business purchases of computers and PDE. Second, for the valuation adjustment for own-use equipment, BEA will revise the estimated percentage of shipments accounted
for by own-use computers primarily on the basis of information from the
1982 Census of Business. This revision will increase business purchases
of computers and PDE. It appears that the combined effect of the revisions to these two elements will reduce business purchases of computers
and PDE; for 1984, the reduction is likely to be as much as $lx/2 billion.
Further, the annual revision will reflect the incorporation in personal
consumption expenditures (PCE) of the estimates of computers purchased
by persons based on the 1984 Consumers Expenditures Survey. In order
to incorporate this estimate, an as yet unknown amount of computers
that have been included in PCE since 1980 through the use of retail store
sales as an extrapolator must be removed.

Revised and Updated Estimates
and expenditures, revisions in the
actual measures result in a dollar-fordollar change in the corresponding cyclically adjusted measures, ceteris
paribus.2 The same methodological
approach applies to the income components—wages and salaries, corporate profits, etc.—used to estimate cyclically adjusted tax bases. Because of
the way the cyclically adjusted tax
bases are used in the model, the net
effect on cyclically adjusted receipts
of revisions in the actual income components is much smaller than the
effect of revisions in actual receipts.
The second way the NIPA revisions
affect the estimates is through trend
GNP. Trend GNP—the reference path
from which cyclical fluctuations are
measured—depends on actual constant-dollar GNP. In the case of
middle-expansion trend GNP, geometric means of actual GNP for each
middle expansion are connected to
form the series. In the case of 6-percent unemployment rate trend GNP,
regression results based on actual
GNP are used to construct the series.

estimate of what the Federal budget
would be after removing the automatic responses of receipts and expenditures to economic fluctuations. The
uses of the cyclically adjusted budget
and the methods to measure it have
been discussed in several earlier BEA
publications.1
This article presents revised and
updated estimates of the cyclically adjusted budget, cyclically adjusted
debt, and trend GNP. The revisions
are primarily due to the comprehensive revisions of the national income
and product accounts (NIPA's) that
became available in December 1985.
The first section focuses on how the
NIPA revisions affect the estimates.
The second section presents revised
and updated estimates of the cyclically adjusted budget and debt, based on
middle-expansion trend GNP. The
final section presents revised and updated estimates of a variant of the cyclically adjusted budget, based on 6percent unemployment rate trend
GNP.

equation is the one used to estimate
the cyclical adjustment of net interest
paid.
Chart 4 shows the revised and previously published estimates of the cyclically adjusted surplus or deficit as
percentages
of middle-expansion
trend GNP. The chart illustrates that
there is little difference between the
two series in most quarters. Table 1
shows the sources of the revisions in
selected quarters when there is a noticeable difference in chart 4. In the
table, "data revisions" reflect the first
two ways the NIPA revisions affect
the cyclically adjusted surplus or deficit; "reestimated equations" reflect
the third way. In all quarters, data
revisions are the major source of revision. The effects of reestimated equations are sometimes more important
for specific categories of receipts and
expenditures than is suggested by the
net effect on the surplus or deficit.3
3. An example occurs in the second quarter of 1982.
Reestimated equations caused decreases in cyclically
adjusted receipts and expenditures of about $2.5 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively. The net effect on
the deficit was a $0.9 billion increase.

NOTE.—Cyclical adjustment based on middle-expansion trend GNP.
U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis

Revised estimates based on
middle-expansion trend GNP
Table 2 shows revised estimates of
middle-expansion trend GNP and the
companion middle-expansion trend
unemployment rate. The growth rates
in middle-expansion trend GNP are
lower than those previously published
because the revised growth rates in
actual constant-dollar GNP are
lower.4 The table also shows the unemployment rate gap and the GNP
gap. These gaps play a key role in determining the size and sign of the cyclical adjustment to the actual
budget. A positive GNP gap is associated with a positive adjustment to
actual receipts in estimating cyclically adjusted receipts; a positive unemployment rate gap is associated with a
positive adjustment to actual expenditures in estimating cyclically adjusted
expenditures.
The cyclically adjusted budget
based on these trends and gaps is
shown in table 3. The table shows receipts, expenditures, and the surplus
or deficit in billions of dollars and as
percentages of trend GNP. The table
also decomposes changes in the cyclically adjusted budget into those resulting from the automatic effects of
inflation and those resulting from discretionary policy changes and other
4. The middle-expansion trend GNP growth rates by
period were revised for 1956-62 from 3.5 to 3.4 percent, for 1962-72 from 4.0 to 3.8 percent, for 1972-77
from 2.9 to 2.6 percent, for 1977-81 from 2.7 to 2.5 percent, and for 1981-85 from 2.5 to 2.1 percent.




factors. The revised estimates confirm
several points that had been apparent
in the previously published estimates:
• Starting in the fourth quarter of
1982,
the
deficit-to-GNP
ratio
matched or exceeded the ratio in all
previous quarters except for the
second quarter of 1975.5
• The rise in the deficit-to-GNP
ratio in recent years has been the
result of a decline in the receipts-toGNP ratio in combination with an increase in the expenditures-to-GNP
ratio.
• The automatic inflation effects
tend to move the budget toward surplus. With the deceleration of inflation, the magnitude of these effects
declined in recent years from those in
the late 1970's and early 1980's.
The rise in the cyclically adjusted
deficit-to-GNP ratio contributed to a
rise in the cyclically adjusted debt-toGNP ratio. In earlier articles, it was
suggested that the debt-to-GNP ratio
has important effects on macroeconomic developments.6 Specifically, an
increase in the cyclically adjusted
debt-to-GNP ratio is associated with
an increase in interest rates and a decline in the capital-output ratio.
5. In the second quarter of 1975, the Tax Reduction
Act of 1975 caused a sharp one-quarter decline in receipts and resulted in the increase in the deficit.
6. See de Leeuw and Holloway, "Cyclical Adjustment of the Federal Budget and Federal Debt," pp.
37-40. Also see Frank de Leeuw and Thomas M.

Cyclically Adjusted Federal Budget and Debt," Journal of Money, Credit, and Banking 17 (May 1985): 23242.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

for 1956-85. An addendum to the
table presents the debt-to-GNP ratio.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

increased every quarter starting with
the third quarter of 1982.
• The debt-to-GNP ratio declined or
remained flat during many quarters
when the cyclically adjusted budget

was in deficit (i.e., when the expenditures line is above the receipts line in
chart 5).
• Given conditions at 1985 levels, a
cyclically adjusted
deficit-to-GNP

15

ratio of about 1.2 percent would halt
the increase in the cyclically adjusted
debt-to-GNP ratio. At 1985 levels, that
implies about a $48 billion cyclically
adjusted deficit.

Preliminary.
1. Federal debt held by the public includes holdings by the Federal Reserve.
2. Includes such items as net purchases of land, timing differences between NIPA and unified budget receipts, and changes in
U.S. Treasury operating cash. A complete, list of the items is shown in table 10 of de Leeuw and Holloway, "Cyclical Adjustment
of the Federal Budget and Federal Debt," p. 39.

Revised estimates based on 6-percent
unemployment rate trend GNP
A variant of the cyclically adjusted
budget is based an a trend GNP series
associated with a constant 6-percent
unemployment rate. Table 6 shows,
for 1970-85, estimates of the 6-percent
unemployment rate variant and the
underlying measures of 6-percent
unemployment rate trend GNP.9 Compared with the revised and updated
estimates of the cyclically adjusted
budget based on middle-expansion
trend GNP, the deficit-to-GNP ratio of
the 6-percent unemployment variant
was higher in the early 1970's, about
the same in 1974-75, then lower in all
subsequent years. The difference has
been about 0.9 percentage point in
recent years. The pattern of the differences followed the pattern of the
differences between the middle-expansion trend unemployment rate and 6.0
percent.
9. The growth rate in constant-dollar 6-percent unemployment rate trend GNP is derived with regression estimates and is 3.4 percent for 1970-74, 3.0 percent for 1974-81, and 2.1 percent for 1981-85.

Capital Expenditures by Majority-Owned Foreign Affiliates of
Companies, 1986
MAJORITY-OWNED foreign affiliates of U.S. companies plan to increase capital expenditures 9 percent
in 1986, to $39.8 billion, following a
planned 5-percent increase in 1985
(table land chart 6).l
The latest spending estimate for
1985, based on the BEA survey taken
in December 1985, is significantly
lower than the estimate based on the
survey taken 6 months earlier, which
indicated spending would rise 15 percent (table 2). For 1986, the latest estimate is slightly lower than the earlier
estimate, which indicated spending
would rise 2 percent. However, the
latest estimate of the year-to-year percent increase for 1986 is larger, because it is calculated from the lower
1985 base. The downward adjustment
for 1985 continues a recent pattern in
which spending estimates made near
the end of the year are much lower
than those made 6 months earlier.
The pattern, established during a
period of prolonged sluggish growth
abroad, largely results from the cancellation of some projects and the deferral of others into the following
year. Although planned 1985 spending was adjusted downward in most
NOTE.—Ralph Kozlow and Ellen M. Herr prepared the estimates. Smith W. Allnutt designed
the computer programs for data retrieval and
analysis.
1. Capital expenditures estimates are for majorityowned nonbank foreign affiliates of nonbank U.S. parents. (An affiliate is majority owned when the combined ownership of all U.S. parents exceeds 50 percent.) For affiliates other than those engaged in natural resource exploration and development, capital expenditures include all expenditures that are charged
to capital accounts and that are made to acquire, add
to, or improve property, plant, and equipment. For affiliates engaged in natural resource exploration and
development, capital expenditures also include the full
amount of exploration and development expenditures,
whether capitalized or expensed. Capital expenditures
are on a gross basis; sales and other dispositions of
fixed assets are not netted against them. They are reported to BEA in current dollars; they are not adjusted for price changes in host countries or for changes
in the value of foreign currencies, because the necessary data are unavailable.

tion raises estimates expressed in dollars of a given amount of foreign currency expenditures. However, the precise effect of dollar depreciation on
spending estimates cannot be measured because, among other things, the
amount of spending actually transacted in dollars, as opposed to the
amount transacted in foreign currencies, is not reported to BEA.

countries plan a 12-percent increase

industries, nearly one-half of the total
adjustment was in petroleum, probably attributable to the continuing oil
glut.
The increases currently planned for
both 1985 and 1986 probably reflect
expectations of continued slow economic growth abroad. Depreciation of
the dollar vis-a-vis many foreign currencies, which began early last year,
may account for much of the increases. In general, dollar deprecia-

value and volume. Decreases in automotive exports to Canada and in civilian aircraft were about offset by an
increase in nonagricultural industrial
supplies and materials.
Service transactions.—Net service
receipts decreased to $7.1 billion from
$7.7 billion. Among major components, receipts of income on U.S.
direct investment abroad were unchanged at $11.0 billion; an increase
in reinvested earnings was partly
offset by a decrease in distributed
earnings. Payments of income on foreign direct investment in the United
States were $1.8 billion, down from
$2.1 billion, as operating losses by a
few companies reduced earnings. Receipts of income on other private investment were unchanged at $12.2 billion. Changes in outstanding claims
and interest rates were offsetting.
Payments of income on other private
investment increased to $9.1 billion
from $8.7 billion, reflecting a large increase in outstanding liabilities.

Foreign visitors spent $2.9 billion
for travel in the United States, up 1
percent. Receipts from overseas visitors increased 4 percent to $1.6 billion, those from Canada were unchanged at $0.8 billion, and those
from Mexico were $0.5 billion, down 7
percent due to a decrease in receipts
from travel to the U.S. interior. U.S.
travelers spent $4.3 billion in foreign
countries, up 2 percent. Payments for
travel to all major areas increased:
Overseas, 1 percent to $2.8 billion, as
an increase in the number of travelers more than offset a decrease in average expenditures; Canada, 4 percent
to $0.7 billion; and Mexico, 2 percent
to $0.9 billion.
Transfers under U.S. military
agency sales contracts decreased $0.3
billion to $2.0 billion, the lowest since
the second quarter of 1980; major delivery programs continued to be completed for many countries. Direct defense expenditures abroad were $2.9
billion, up $0.1 billion.
Other transportation receipts were
$3.7 billion, up 5 percent. Receipts
from ocean freight, ocean port services, and air freight all rose slightly.
Transportation payments were $4.3
billion, up 5 percent. Ocean port services payments increased 5 percent
and air freight payments, 25 percent,
the latter due to combined increases
in both import cargo volume and
freight rates.
Net unilateral transfers were $4.2
billion compared with $4.0 billion.
U.S. Government grants, particularly
to countries in the Middle East, remained strong.

assets increased $3.1 billion compared
with $0.1 billion. The increase was accounted for by U.S. purchases of
German, Japanese, and British currency in October that were part of coordinated intervention by industrial
countries to foster an orderly appreciation of other currencies against the
dollar.
U.S. claims on foreigners reported
by U.S. banks increased $8.6 billion
compared with $1.5 billion. The outflows were dominated by large interbank outflows at yearend, when it
was advantageous for own foreign offices to borrow from U.S. parents
rather than in the Eurodollar market
to meet temporary yearend needs.
(The outflows were reversed in January.) Japanese banks borrowed heavily when Japanese credit conditions
were tightened in November and December. Also, U.S. bank holding companies transferred funds, some of
which were apparently proceeds of
earlier borrowings in the Euronote
market, to own foreign offices. Partly
offsetting was a reduction in U.S. residents' holdings of Eurodollar certificates of deposits.
Net U.S. purchases of foreign securities decreased to $1.5 billion from
$1.7 billion. Net purchases of foreign
stocks decreased despite continued sizable advances in stock prices. Some
profit taking, especially through sales
of Japanese stocks, probably contributed to the smaller purchases. Purchases of Canadian stocks remained
strong. Foreign bonds newly issued in
the United States were only $1.5 billion, as most activity was centered in
the Eurobond markets. Major borrowers included Sweden, France, Japan,
and New Zealand. In transactions in

outstanding bonds, purchases of British gilt-edge bonds declined to $1.0
billion from $1.6 billion.
Net outflows for U.S. direct investment abroad were $8.7 billion compared with $7.1 billion. In equity capital transactions, some unusually
large capital inflows from the sales of
Canadian and Latin American affiliates by U.S. petroleum companies
that had occurred in the third quarter
were not repeated. In intercompany
debt transactions, outflows from U.S.
parents to pay down outstanding debt
to their finance affiliates in the Netherlands Antilles continued.
Foreign assets in the United
States.—Foreign assets in the United
States increased $48.5 billion compared with $34.5 billion. Foreign official assets in the United States decreased $1.6 billion following a $2.4
billion increase. Monetary authorities
in industrial countries drew down
dollar assets for use in exchange
market intervention. Assets of OPEC
members decreased, and assets of
other countries increased.
U.S. liabilities to private foreigners
and international financial institutions reported by U.S. banks, excluding U.S. Treasury securities, increased $20.5 billion compared with
$6.5 billion. Nearly all of these inflows occurred in December, and most
were from own foreign offices to foreign-owned banks in the United
States to finance a large increase in
credits extended by these agencies
and branches.
Net foreign purchases of U.S.
Treasury securities by private foreigners and international financial institutions remained relatively strong at

26

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

$5.7 billion in the face of sharp declines in the dollar and in U.S. longterm interest rates. Foreigners purchased $7.1 billion in bonds and sold
$1.4 billion in short-term securities.
As in previous quarters, most purchases were by investors in Japan,
who acquired $5.2 billion in bonds,
compared with $6.2 billion in the previous quarter. The sharp rise in both
short- and long-term Japanese interest rates in November and December
and yen appreciation may have contributed to the slower pace of Japanese purchases. International and regional organizations, primarily the
World Bank, purchased $3.1 billion in
Treasury bonds. The purchases, occurring mostly in December, were financed partly by sales of $1.0 billion
in short-term Treasury securities and
a $1.0 billion decrease in deposits at
banks in the United States.
Net foreign purchases of U.S. securities other than U.S. Treasury securities were a record $22.4 billion. New
bond issues abroad by U.S. corporations were $12.5 billion; foreigners
purchased $5.9 billion in outstanding
bonds. Net purchases of U.S. stocks
were a record $4.0 billion.
Sharply lower interest rates plus
the ease and speed with which issues
could be placed in the Eurobond markets led to a continuation of substantial debt financing by U.S. corporations, as corporations sought to refinance earlier debt or to assume new
debt. In midsummer, German authorities liberalized regulations governing
foreign placements in the German
market; nearly $1.0 billion was placed
in German marks by U.S. corporations in the fourth quarter.
Net foreign purchases of U.S. stocks
were $4.0 billion. Purchases acceler-

ated in the fourth quarter when the
U.S. stock market rose 12 percent;
purchases in December alone totaled
$2.0 billion. Sharply declining longterm interest rates and lower foreign
currency costs of U.S. stocks also encouraged purchases. Net purchases by
Western Europe were more than
triple those in the third quarter.
Japan was a small net purchaser.
Only Canadian purchases slowed to a
virtual halt, probably influenced by
the decline of the Canadian dollar
against the U.S. dollar.
Net inflows for foreign direct investment in the United States were
$1.5 billion compared with $6.0 billion. The decline was mostly due to a
$4.4 billion shift in intercompany debt
transactions to outflows of $1.5 billion, as several large inflows that occurred in the third quarter were not
repeated.
The statistical discrepancy (errors
and omissions in reported transactions) increased to an unrecorded net
inflow of $10.4 billion from $7.5 billion.

System (EMS) currencies and 6 percent against the British pound.
Against the Canadian dollar, the U.S.
dollar appreciated 2 percent. Higher
Canadian interest rates and steppe iup borrowing by Canadian authorities
to finance intervention in exchange
markets limited the depreciation of
the Canadian dollar.

The Year 1985

U.S. dollar in exchange markets
The dollar appreciated nearly 6 percent against European currencies and
5 percent against the Japanese yen in
January and February, aided by a
temporary rise in U.S. interest rates
(table C, chart 7). Limited intervention in exchange markets by U.S.
monetary authorities, and much more
extensive intervention by foreign
monetary authorities, did little to
stem enthusiasm for dollar assets. A
resumption of the decline in U.S. interest rates, (which were already 3
percentage points lower than 6
months earlier), increased concerns
U.S. dollar in exchange markets.— over the lack of strength of the U.S.
Although the dollar fell sharply im- economy and difficulties of certain fimediately after the September 22 nancial institutions, and the substanmeeting of the Group of Five (France, tial amount by which the dollar had

less rapidly than in the United States,
EMS currencies appreciated less
against the dollar than did the British
pound. The Japanese yen generally
moved in line with the European currencies in this period, but the fluctuations against the dollar were narrower.
From its peak in March to the realignment of the EMS currencies in
mid-July, the dollar depreciated
nearly 17 percent against the British

pound, 8 percent against the German
mark and other EMS currencies, and
4 percent against the Japanese yen.
Starting in late August, the dollar
began to appreciate, as expectations
of an end to the U.S. interest rate decline prevailed. In the second week of
September, it reached its highest level
since late June.
In late September, the Group of
Five announced that further orderly
appreciation of major currencies
against the dollar would be desirable

in view of recent shifts in fundamental economic conditions. These shifts
included more moderate growth in
the United States, somewhat stronger
growth in other countries, and convergence of inflation rates at a lower
level. The announcement, together
with subsequent coordinated intervention in exchange markets, contributed
to a substantial depreciation of the
dollar through yearend.
For the year, the dollar depreciated
21-24 percent against most Western
European currencies and the Japanese yen.
?
The U.S. dollar appreciated 6 percent against the Canadian dollar in
1985. At times, particularly in late
February and early March and then
again in late November, Canadian authorities permitted interest rates to
rise substantially above U.S. rates to
stem the decline of the Canadian
dollar. In addition, substantial exchange market intervention—supported by borrowings from Canadian charter banks, U.S. and foreign banks,
and the Eurobond and U.S. bond markets—limited depreciation.
The dollar appreciated against currencies of most debt-burdened developing countries, which were subject to
very high rates of inflation and numerous currency devaluations. The
dollar depreciated only slightly
against currencies of several newly
industrialized countries in Asia.
Merchandise trade
The U.S. merchandise trade deficit
increased to $124.3 billion in 1985
from $114.1 billion in 1984 (tables D,
E). Imports increased $4.3 billion to
$338.3 billion; volume increased 4 percent. An increase in nonpetroleum
imports to $287.9 billion from $276.5
billion more than offset a decrease in
petroleum imports to $50.4 billion
from $57.5 billion. The 4-percent increase in the value of nonpetroleum
imports followed increases of 29 percent in 1984 and 15 percent in 1983.
Exports decreased $5.9 billion to
$214.0 billion; volume increased 1 percent. Nonagricultural exports increased to $184.8 billion from $181.6
billion and agricultural exports decreased to $29.2 billion from $38.3 billion. The 2-percent increase in the
value of nonagricultural exports followed a 10-percent increase in 1984.
The cumulative impact of earlier
dollar appreciation continued to exert

or 19 percent. Automotive products
had increased 31 percent in 1984 and
23 percent in 1983. The increase was
mainly due to strong sales of Japanese cars. The number of cars imported from Japan increased 16 percent,
as did the number of Japanese cars
sold. The Japanese share of total cars
sold in the United States increased to
21 percent from 19 percent. In contrast to earlier years, the average
price increased only 2 percent following increases of 10 percent and 8 percent in 1984 and 1983, respectively.
Automotive products from Canada,
which increased $1.8 billion, reflected
continued strength in the number of
domestic (U.S.) units sold.
Consumer goods increased $3.7 billion, or 6 percent, compared with a
31-percent increase in 1984 and an 18percent increase in 1983. Textile imports, which are largely from newly
industrialized countries in Asia, increased only 5 percent following a 38percent increase. The slowing mirrored the pace of the U.S. economy,
although expectations of future limitations on selected categories of these
imports may have also contributed.
Contrary to general developments,
textile imports from Western Europe
remained strong. Imports of radio and
TV equipment and components increased 3 percent following a 53-percent increase. This deceleration also
was in response to the slowing economy and, by yearend, to rising import
costs.
Nonpetroleum industrial supplies,
which had increased 22 percent in
1984 and 9 percent in 1983, decreased
$4.2 billion or 6 percent. Imports of
iron and steel products accounted for
almost one-half the decrease.
Capital goods, which had increased
42 percent in 1984 and 12 percent in
1983, increased $2.4 billion or 4 percent. Civilian aircraft accounted for
much of the increase. Other key capital goods—electrical machinery; business and office equipment (including
computers); and scientific, professional, and service industry equipment—
which had paced strong imports in
1983 and 1984 were only sightly
higher.
Petroleum imports decreased $7.1
billion, or 12 percent, to $50.4 billion,
the lowest level since 1978. The average price per barrel decreased to
$26.37 from $27.95. The average
number of barrels imported daily decreased to 5.24 million from 5.62 mil-

lion. Most of the decline was in imports from OPEC members. U.S. consumption of petroleum was unchanged from 1984, and stocks, excluding those for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, decreased 7 percent.
Nonagricultural exports increased
$3.2 billion, or 2 percent, to $184.8 billion; volume increased 4 percent. The
largest increases were in completed
civilian aircraft, up $2.6 billion, or 55
percent, and automotive products to
Canada, up $2.0 billion, or 12 percent,
reflecting strength in U.S. auto sales.
After a substantial increase in 1984,
capital goods other than civilian aircraft and parts decreased $1.8 billion,
or 3 percent; key commodities such as
electronic computers and parts, electrical machinery, and broadcasting
and communications equipment were
unchanged or declined. Nonagricultural industrial supplies decreased
$2.4 billion, or 4 percent, partly due
to a decline in metal and raw materials prices in world commodity markets throughout much of the year.
Consumer goods decreased $0.9 billion, or 6 percent.
Agricultural exports decreased $9.1
billion, or 24 percent, to $29.2 billion,
the lowest level since $24.3 billion in
1977. The strong dollar and excess
global production, which led to competition from other suppliers as well
as from local production in traditional
markets, combined to reduce exports.
The largest decrease was in wheat,
down 40 percent, mostly due to reduced shipments to the Soviet Union.
The volume of corn exports decreased
12 percent, and soybeans, 10 percent.
These declines were magnified by further sizable drops in prices in world
agricultural markets. The average
price of soybeans decreased 22 percent; corn, 17 percent; and wheat, 5
percent. These decreases brought the
cumulative price declines to 25 percent for wheat since its peak in late
1983, to 40 percent for corn, and to 48
percent for soybeans.
Most of the increase in the merchandise trade deficit in 1985 was
with Western Europe and Japan
(table F). With Japai^, the deficit increased $6.4 billion to $43.4 billion;
with Western Europe, $6.0 billion to
$21.2 billion. The increases were less
than one-half those in 1984, largely
because of the slower rise in U.S. nonpetroleum imports. With Canada, the
deficit increased $1.0 billion to $17.1
billion. The increase in the deficit

with newly industrialized countries in
the Asia also was moderate compared
with the increase in 1984. With these
countries, the deficit increased $1.2
billion to $21.4 billion. That increase
was more than offset by a decrease in
the deficit with other developing
countries, so that the deficit with all
non-OPEC developing countries decreased $3.0 billion to $34.3 billion.
The deficit with OPEC members decreased $1.8 billion to $11.3 billion.
Service transactions
Net service receipts were $21.4 billion compared with $18.2 billion (table
G). Net direct investment income receipts rose to $26.3 billion from $12.9
billion; other portfolio investment
shifted to net payments of $1.6 billion
from net receipts of $6.2 billion. Net
payments on other service transactions increased to $3.3 billion from
$0.9 billion due to higher net travel,
passenger fares, and transportation
payments, and an increase in the deficit on military transactions.
Receipts of income on U.S. direct
investment abroad were $35.3 billion
compared with $23.1 billion. A shift
from capital losses to capital gains resulting from the appreciation of
major currencies against the dollar
more than accounted for the pickup.
Income before capital gains and
losses—that is, operating earningswas slightly lower. Interest payments

Other net transportation payments
were $2.0 billion, up from $0.9 billion.
Receipts increased 4 percent to $14.3

higher. Payments increased 11 percent to $16.3 billion. Ocean freight

of total import volume, rose 25 percent. Air port expenditures payments

were also unchanged. Receipts of petroleum companies were unchanged
while those of manufacturing and
other companies increased, particularly those in Western Europe and
Japan where currencies appreciated
sharply against the dollar. Receipts of
income on other private investment
were $49.9 billion, down from $59.3
billion. The decline was nearly all due
to lower interest rates. Receipts of
income on U.S. Government assets
abroad were nearly unchanged at $5.3
billion.
Payments of income on foreign
direct investment in the United
States were $9.0 billion compared
with $10.2 billion. A substantial decrease in reinvested earnings more
than accounted for the decline. Payments of income on other private investment were $35.5 billion, down
from $38.5 billion. A sharp increase in
liabilities to foreigners partly offset
the impact of lower interest rates.
Net travel and passenger fare payments increased to $9.8 billion from
$8.1 billion. Foreign visitors spent
$11.7 billion for travel in the United
States, up 2 percent from the previous
year. Travel receipts from overseas
were $6.6 billion, up 4 percent. Overall, there was less than a 1-percent
drop in the number of visitors. The
number of visitors from Oceania, the
Caribbean, and Japan increased, but
the number from Europe dropped 3
percent. Receipts from Canada fell 2
percent to $3.0 billion, mostly due to a
decline in the number of auto travelers making long-term visits. Receipts
from Mexico increased 5 percent to
$2.0 billion. The number of Mexican

U.S. assets abroad
U.S. assets abroad increased $38.2
billion in 1985 compared with $20.4
billion in 1984.
U.S. official reserve assets increased
$3.9 billion compared with a $3.1 billion increase. Limited acquisitions of
German marks, Japanese yen, and
British pounds occurred in the first
quarter. Substantial acquisitions of
the same currencies occurred in October as part of coordinated market
intervention by industrial countries
following the Group of Five meeting
in late September. The U.S. reserve
position with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) shifted to a $1.0 billion decrease from a $1.0 billion increase, mostly due to a drop in the
amount of dollars obtained from the
IMF by other countries. Holdings of
special drawing rights increased $0.9
billion, nearly the same amount as in
1984.
U.S. claims on foreigners reported
by U.S. banks increased $5.9 billion
compared with $8.5 billion (tables H,
I). As in 1984, economic expansion in
industrial countries abroad was moderate, limiting demand for credit, and
borrowing policies of many developing
countries, particularly those in Latin
America, remained cautious. U.S.
banks remained reluctant to make
major new extensions of credit as supervisory authorities continued to
monitor carefully bank loan exposure

percent.
U.S. travel payments totaled $17.0
billion, a 6-percent increase over 1984.
Expenditures overseas increased 9
percent to $10.8 billion; the number of
U.S. travelers also increased 9 percent, despite dollar depreciation. Expenditures in Canada were up 10 percent to $2.6 billion; the number of
travelers increased 4 percent, mostly
in response to appreciation of the U.S.
dollar relative to the Canadian dollar.
Travel payments to Mexico were $3.5
billion, down 2 percent.
Passenger fare receipts from foreign visitors for travel on U.S. flag
carriers were unchanged at $3.0 billion. U.S. payments to foreign transocean carriers totaled $7.4 billion, a 13percent increase that reflected a corresponding increase in the number of
U.S. travelers on foreign flag carriers.
U.S. military transactions with foreigners resulted in net payments of
$2.0 billion, up from $1.8 billion.
Transfers under U.S. military agency
sales contracts were $9.3 billion, a decrease of $0.8 billion, due to declines
in or completion of major delivery
programs. About one-half of the recipient countries had increased deliveries, but the declines among the
others offset the increases by almost a
two-to-one margin. U.S. direct defense
expenditures abroad were $11.3 billion, a decrease of $0.5 billion. In
1985, the second consecutive year in
which expenditures declined, decreases in construction activity and
petroleum procurement were only
partly offset by increased personnel
expenditures.

prompted by the removal of withholding taxes on interest payments to foreigners in mid-1984 and the sharp decline in medium- and long-term borrowing rates, was an additional factor
reducing the role of syndicated bank
loans as a major source of credit in
international markets.
Gross interbank activity was large.
Claims on own foreign offices increased $20.1 billion, twice as much
as in 1984. Nearly all the step-up reflected large outflows at yearend
(which subsequently were quickly reversed). In addition, U.S. bank holding companies transferred to foreign
offices several billion in funds that
had apparently been borrowed earlier
in the Euronote markets. Except for
these special factors, there was little
incentive for U.S. banks to fund foreign offices or supply funds to other
foreign banks. The slowdown in interbank activity was more evident in
claims on unaffiliated foreign banks,
which decreased $8.9 billion following
no change in 1984.
Claims on foreign public borrowers
decreased $1.2 billion compared with
a $3.8 billion increase. Most extensions of new credits in 1985 to debtburdened countries were limited to refinancing earlier loans or to providing
funds to bring interest payments on
international debt current.
Claims of banks7 domestic customers, payable in dollars, decreased $1.9
billion following a $2.0 billion decrease. Holdings of Eurodollar certificates of deposits were scaled back,
both in response to the decline in interest rates and to the desire to
reduce portfolio exposure abroad.




Claims payable in foreign currencies
increased $5.0 billion.
U.S. banks continued as net borrowers from the international credit markets in 1985 as the increase in liabilities more than offset the increase in
claims. Net funds raised from abroad
increased to $34.7 billion compared
with $23.2 billion raised in 1984
(chart 9).
Net U.S. purchases of foreign securities rose $2.8 billion to $7.9 billion—
a near record—as U.S. interest in foreign stocks rose with strong market
rallies abroad. New foreign bond
issues in the United States were unchanged.
Net U.S. purchases of foreign stocks
were $4.0 billion compared with $1.1
billion. U.S. residents became net purchasers of foreign stocks in the third

31

and fourth quarters of 1984, when
prices on most key foreign stock exchanges rose. Diversification into foreign stocks continued in 1985, reflecting both a rise in most foreign stock
prices and appreciation of foreign currencies. Purchases of British stocks,
where prices advanced 17 percent,
were $0.7 billion. Purchases of French
and German stocks, where prices advanced 57 and 21 percent, respectively, were $0.6 billion. Purchases of Japanese stocks increased strongly in the
first quarter, but sales throughout
most of the rest of the year resulted
in net purchases of only $0.1 billion
even though the market advanced 17
percent. Purchases of Canadian stocks
were $1.2 billion, compared with net
sales of $0.3 billion, in the face of an
11-percent depreciation of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar.
New bond issues in the United
States, nearly unchanged at $5.6 billion, remained at low levels as the
U.S. market failed to attract much
foreign borrowing. Although some of
the largest and highest rated foreign
borrowers came to the U.S. market,
other foreign borrowers raised funds
abroad, where attractive pricing alternatives and lower interest rates were
offered in the Eurobond market. Canadian borrowers placed $2.2 billion,
up from a low level last year; Western
European issues were $1.5 billion,
down somewhat from last year.
In transactions in outstanding
bonds, U.S. investors continued their
heavy acquisitions of British gilt-edge
bonds, adding $5.3 billion to the $4.7
billion acquired mostly in the last

half of 1984. High interest rates and
offerings of currency-hedging options
by several major U.S. dealers spurred
purchases from mid-1984 through the
first quarter of 1985. Thereafter, the
British pound's substantial appreciation against the dollar, combined with
continued high interest rates, maintained the attractiveness of these investments. U.S. residents sold $1.5 billion of their holdings of Latin American, Asian, Canadian, and international bonds.
Net outflows for U.S. direct investment abroad were $19.1 billion compared with $4.5 billion. The increase
was due to a rise in reinvested earnings to $22.3 billion from $11.0 billion,
reflecting a substantial boost in
income from exchange rate gains; operating earnings were slightly lower.
Intercompany debt inflows dropped
sharply to $1.9 billion from $7.9 billion, as corporations borrowed directly in the Eurobond market rather
than through their Netherlands Antilles finance affiliates as they had in
the first half of 1984 (table J). Equity

as inflows from developing countries
slowed by nearly one-half. Dollar
assets of industrial countries increased $0.9 billion, compared with
$0.4 billion. Quarterly fluctuations
were substantial. Decreases occurred
in the first and fourth quarters, when
foreign monetary authorities intervened heavily in exchange markets.
In the first quarter, most decreases
were with European countries; in the
fourth, most decreases were with
countries in the Far East. In the
second and third quarters, most countries took advantage of relatively
calm exchange markets to add to
their dollar holdings.
Dollar assets of OPEC members decreased $6.8 billion compared with
$4.1 billion, as petroleum revenues
continued to decline. Dollar assets of
other countries increased $3.9 billion
compared with $7.2 billion. Most of
the slowdown was with newly industrialized countries in Asia. Dollar
assets of Latin American countries increased about the same amount as a
year earlier, partly reflecting deposits
in the United States of proceeds of
IMF- and commercial bank-sponsored
financial aid packages.
Liabilities to foreigners and international financial institutions reported by U.S. banks, excluding U.S.
Treasury securities, increased $40.6
billion, compared with $31.7 billion.
Liabilities payable in foreign currencies accounted for $7.6 billion of the
1985 increase, compared with $2.3 billion.
In contrast to 1984, most interbank
borrowing was from own foreign offices rather than from unaffiliated
foreign banks, and most borrowing
from foreign offices was by foreignowned banks, especially in the fourth
quarter.
Interbank inflows to U.S.-owned
banks were especially strong in Feb-

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

March 1986

ruary and early March when U.S. interest rates rose more rapidly than
foreign rates and a large overnight
Eurodollar interest differential favored offshore borrowing. The inflows
coincided with a spurt in U.S. loan
demand and temporarily tighter conditions in the money markets. With
loan demand essentially flat through
October and with U.S. interest rates
below or only marginally higher than
a weighted average of key foreign
rates, inflows for those months were
limited. Unusually large inflows to
foreign-owned banks in November
and December were mostly to finance

tended by these agencies and
branches in the United States.
More attractive yields on U.S.
Treasury bonds than on bank certificates of deposit may have shifted
some funds flows to the securities
markets throughout the year. A declining dollar may have slowed deposit inflows somewhat in the last half of
the year (chart 10).
Net foreign purchases of U.S.
Treasury securities by private foreigners and international financial institutions were $20.9 billion, close to last
year's record $22.4 billion, despite a
sharp decline in the dollar exchange
rate and in U.S. long-term interest
rates (chart 11). High yields on U.S.
Treasury bonds relative to most foreign bond rates, expectations of rate
declines and capital gains, and the
July 1984 repeal of the U.S. withholding tax on interest payments to foreigners and related clarification of
registration and certification requirements all contributed to foreigners'
continued attraction to U.S. Treasury
bonds. A third foreign-targeted issue
of $1 billion was offered in June,
bringing to $3 billion the amount offered since October 1984.
Residents of Japan accounted for
$17.5 billion—the largest portion—of
Treasury bond purchases, compared
with $4.5 billion in 1984. Japanese
purchases were mostly by insurance
companies and pension funds, which
had recently been permitted to
expand the share of foreign securities
in their portfolios. Investors sought
the security of Treasury obligations
and liquidity of the U.S. market, as
well as interest rates that averaged
400 basis points higher than comparable Japanese rates. The interest differential apparently more than compensated for the foreign exchange
risk. Also, favorable interpretation of
the Japanese tax code in June 1985
encouraged purchases of zero-coupon
Treasury bonds by permitting taxation of gains on the principal portion
of the bond at capital gains rates. (No
decision has yet been made on the tax
treatment of the interest portion.)
In contrast to strong demand by
Japanese residents, both Canadian
and British residents were net sellers.
Long-term rates in both countries, but
especially in the United Kingdom, remained above those in the United
States. Also, the British pound appreciated significantly against the dollar,
as did a number of other European

33

currencies. These countries had either
net sales or only small increases in
holdings. In 1984, Western European
countries had been major net purchasers of bonds, accounting for about
one-half of total purchases. Purchases
of bonds by Caribbean countries more
than doubled to $3.1 billion.
Mostly reflecting large U.S. corporate bond issues abroad, net foreign
purchases of U.S. securities other
than U.S. Treasury securities increased to a record $50.7 billion, compared with the previous record $13.0
billion in 1984. Foreigners purchased
$46.0 billion in bonds, up from $13.8
billion, and $4.7 billion in stocks, a
shift from net sales of $0.8 billion. In
contrast to much of 1984, most bonds
were placed directly in the Euromarkets or in national credit markets
abroad rather than through finance
affiliates in the Netherlands Antilles.
The total amount raised was $37.6 billion, or nearly one-third of U.S. corporate bond borrowing from all sources
in 1985. In 1984, U.S. corporations
had borrowed $20.3 billion in bond
markets abroad, a major portion of
which financed large-scale mergers.
That total, in turn, was nearly three
times the amount of 1983 borrowing.

1. Direct placements abroad by U.S. borrowers. Prior to the removal of the withholding tax on interest payments to foreigners
in July 1984, most borrowing was conducted through finance affiliates in the Netherlands Antilles and recorded in the direct
investment abroad accounts.
2.Fortune 500 industrial corporations.
3. Generally, repayment of principal in dollars, with initial issue and interest paid in foreign currency.
4. European Currency Unit.

by the sharp decline in interest rates
and a desire to substitute long-term
borrowing for syndicated bank credits.
Industrial corporations issued $13.8
billion, mostly in straight fixed-rate
bonds, nearly triple the 1984 total
(table K). Among them, petroleum
and auto company issues were particularly large; those of computer and
office machine companies were also
sizable. Banking corporations issued
$10.4 billion, mostly in floating-rate
notes, more than four times the 1984
total. Nonbank financial institutions,
including savings and loan companies
and insurance companies, issued $7.1
billion in mortgage-backed securities—the first in overseas markets.
Currency swap features enhanced




dual-currency issues in the Eurobond
market, as well as foreign currency
issues placed in the Japanese, Swiss,
and German markets.
Net foreign purchases of outstanding U.S. bonds were $8.4 billion, up
from $3.4 billion. (Some of the 1985
transactions may be classified as new
issues, but information necessary for
such identification is not currently
available.) Additional short- and intermediate-term corporate borrowing
took the form of Euronote note issuance facilities and Eurocommercial
paper.
Net foreign purchases of U.S. stocks
were small compared with those of
bonds. Foreigners purchased $4.7 billion compared with net sales of $0.8
billion a year earlier. Although U.S.

March 1986

market performance remained lackluster throughout most of the year
and trailed far behind the rises in key
foreign markets, a four-quarter selloff
ended in the second quarter with a
shift to small net purchases by Western European countries other than
the United Kingdom. By the third
quarter, British residents had become
net purchasers, and by the fourth
quarter, when there was a 12-percent
rise in equity prices, most major areas
contributed to a record quarterly
inflow of $4.0 billion. Inflows and
stock prices were buoyed by declines
in long-term interest rates and some
improvement in prospects for earnings advances. Also by the fourth
quarter, dollar depreciation had significantly reduced the foreign currency costs of U.S. stocks.
Net inflows for foreign direct investment in the United States fell to
$16.3 billion from $22.5 billion. Intercompany debt inflows in 1984 had
been boosted by an unusually large
inflow to acquire the remainder of a
European petroleum company's U.S.
operations. In 1985, intercompany
debt inflows were reduced when a
European parent converted much of
the debt on the books of its U.S. construction affiliate into equity. Equity
inflows decreased to $10.1 billion from
$10.9 billion, as unusually large inflows in two transactions with Canada
and Australia in 1984 were not
matched by comparable size acquisitions in 1985. Reinvested earnings
were $2.0 billion, compared with $3.7
billion.
The statistical discrepancy (errors
and omissions in reported transactions) increased to an unrecorded net
inflow of $32.7 billion from $30.5 billion.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

March 1986

Footnotes to U.S. International Transactions Tables 1-10
General notes for all tables:
r

Revised.

*Less than $500,000(±).

p

Preliminary.

n.a.

Table 1-2:
1. Credits, + : exports of goods and services; unilateral transfers to United States; capital inflows (increase in foreign assets (U.S. liabilities) or decrease in U.S. assets); decrease in U.S. official reserve assets; increase in foreign official assets in the United States.
Debits, —: imports of goods and services, unilateral transfers to foreigners; capital outflows
(decrease in foreign assets (U.S. liabilities) or increase in U.S. assets); increase in U.S. official reserve assets; decrease in foreign official assets in the United States.
2. Excludes transfers of goods and services under U.S. military grant programs (see line 14).
3. Excludes exports of goods under U.S. military agency sales contracts identified in Census
export documents, excludes imports of goods under direct defense expenditures identified in
Census import documents, and reflects various other adjustments (for valuation, coverage, and
timing) of Census statistics to balance of payments basis; see table 3.
4. For all areas, amounts outstanding December 31, 1985, were as follows in millions of dollars:
line 34, 43,185; line 35, 11,090; line 36, 7,293; line 37, 11,947; line 38,12,856.
5. Includes sales of foreign obligations to foreigners.
6. Consists of bills, certificates, marketable bonds and notes, and nonmarketable convertible
and nonconvertible bonds and notes.
7. Consists of U.S. Treasury and Export-Import Bank obligations, not included elsewhere, and
of debt securities of U.S. Government corporations and agencies.
8. Includes, primarily, U.S. Government liabilities associated with military agency sales contracts and other transactions arranged with or through foreign official agencies; see table 4.
9. Consists of investments in U.S. corporate stocks and in debt securities of private corporations
and State and local governments.
10. Conceptually, the sum of lines 67 and 62 is equal to "net foreign investment" in the national income and product accounts (NIPA's). However, the foreign transactions account in the
NIPA's (a) includes adjustments to the international transactions accounts for the treatment of
gold, (b) excludes capital gains and losses of foreign affiliates of U.S. parent companies from the
NIPA measure of income receipts from direct investment abroad, and from the corresponding
income payments, (c) includes an adjustment for the different geographical treatment of transactions with U.S. territories and Puerto Rico, and (d) includes an adjustment for services furnished
without payment by financial intermediaries, except life insurance carriers. In addition, for
NIPA purposes, U.S. Government interest payments to foreigners are excluded from "net exports
of goods and services" but included with transfers in "net foreign investment." A reconciliation
table of the international accounts and the NIPA foreign transactions account appears in the
"Reconciliation and other Special Tables" section in this issue of the SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS.
Table 3:
1. Exports, Census basis, represent transaction values, f.a.s. U.S. port of exportation; imports,
Census basis, represent Customs values (see Technical Notes, June 1982 SURVEY). Both unadjusted and seasonally adjusted data have been prepared by BEA from "actual" and "revised statistical" month data supplied by the Census Bureau (see Technical Notes, December 1985 SURVEY).
The seasonally adjusted data are the summation of seasonally adjusted 4-digit end-use commodity
categories (see Technical Notes, June 1980 SURVEY).
2. Adjustments in lines A5 and A13, B12, B46, and B80 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 also have been distributed to
the affected end-use categories in section C.
3. Exports of military equipment under U.S. military agency sales contracts with foreign governments (line A6), and direct imports by the Department of Defense and the Coast Guard (Tine
A15), to the extent such trade is identifiable from Customs declarations. These exports are included in tables 1, 2, and 10, line 3 (transfers under U.S. military agency sales contracts); and the
imports are included in tables 1, 2, and 10, line 17 (direct defense expenditures).
4. Addition of electrical energy; deduction of exposed motion picture film for rental rather than
sale; net change in stock of U.S.-owned grains in storage in Canada; and coverage adjustments for
special situations in which shipments were omitted from Census data.
5. Deduction of foreign charges for repair of U.S. vessels abroad, which are included in tables 1,
2, and 10, line 20 (other transportation); and coverage adjustments for special situations in which
shipments were omitted from Census data.
6. Annual and unadjusted quarterly data shown in this table correspond to country and area
data in table 10, lines 2 and 16. Trade with international organizations includes purchases of nonmonetary gold from the IMF, transfers of tin to the International Tin Council (ITC), and sales of
satellites to Intelsat. The memoranda are defined as follows: Industrial countries: Western
Europe, Canada, Japan, and Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa; Members of OPEC: Venezuela, Ecuador, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Algeria, Libya, Nigeria, Gabon; Other countries: Eastern Europe, Latin American Republics, other

Constant-Dollar Inventories, Sales, and Inventory-Sales Ratios for Manufacturing and
Trade
Tables 1, 2, and 3 present constant-dollar inventories, sales, and inventory-sales ratios, respectively, quarterly and monthly. Table 4 presents
quarterly fixed-weighted constant-dollar inventory-sales ratios, i.e., ratios
obtained by weighting detailed industry ratios by 1982 sales. Table 5 pre-

sents quarterly and monthly inventories for manufacturing by stage of
fabrication. Quarterly estimates beginning in 1976 and monthly estimates for 1985 were published in the February 1986 SURVEY OF CURRENT
BUSINESS.

SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

March 1986

National Income and Product Accounts Tables, 1982-85
In December 1985, BEA released the results of a comprehensive revision of the national income and product accounts (NIPA's). All series in
the NIPA's were revised beginning in 1973 and many of them also were
revised for earlier years. All constant-dollar series and price indexes
were revised back to 1929. The major features of this revision were described in articles that appeared in the October and December 1985
issues of the SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS. The December issue provided
revised estimates for the series in the regular quarterly presentation of
NIPA tables for 1983 and 1984 and for 1984:11 through 1985:111. Revised
estimates of selected NIPA series for years beginning in 1929 and for
quarters beginning in 1960 were published in the February 1986 SURVEY.
The following pages present the complete set of revised estimates beginning in 1982 and, where available, ending in 1985. They include the
preliminary estimates of corporate profits and profits taxes for the
fourth quarter of 1985, the revised 75-day estimates of the other NIPA
series, and the corresponding revisions to the year 1985. (The tables in
which the estimates are presented were redesigned as a part of the comprehensive revision; see page 28 in the October article and pages 18 and
19 in the December article.) The complete set of revised estimates for

1. The Bureau of the Census measures of State and local government receipts and expenditures (lines 1 and 17) represent a combination of fiscal years. Virtually all States and many
localities use July 1-June 30 fiscal years; the rest use varying fiscal years. The national income
and product account measures shown in this table are for the fiscal year ending June 30. The
differences that arise from restating the Census data to a year ending June 30 are included in
lines 12, 13, and 14 (receipts) and line 26 (expenditures).

1. The treatment of net exports of gold in the NIPA's differs from that in the BPA's. BPA
gold exports (line 2) and imports (line 11) are removed from the NIPA's. Imports of gold in the
NIPA's (line 15) is the excess of the value of gold in domestic final sales plus the change in
business inventories over the value of U.S. production of gold.
2. BPA capital gains and losses included in U.S. direct investment income abroad (line 3) and
in foreign direct investment income in the U.S. (line 12) are removed from the NIPA's.
3. Consists of statistical revisions in the BPA's that have not yet been incorporated in the
NIPA's.
4. Consists of transactions between the United States and its territories and Puerto Rico. The
treatment of U.S. territories and Puerto Rico in the NIPA's differs from that in the BPA's. In
the NIPA's they are included in the rest of the world; in the BPA's, they are treated as part of
the United States. The adjustments to exports and imports of goods and services are shown in
lines 6 and 16 respectively; however, because data are not available to adjust service exports and
imports separately, line 6 includes the net of exports and imports of services by U.S. territories
and Puerto Rico. The adjustment to unilateral transfers, net (line 33) consists only of transfer
payments from persons because transfer payments, subsidies, and grants-in-aid from the Federal
Government to residents of U.S. territories and Puerto Rico are excluded from NIP A transfer
payments to foreigners.
5. Represents interest paid by government to foreigners. This item is treated as an import of
services in the BPA's. In the NIPA's, it is excluded from government purchases and, thus, also
from imports.
NOTE.—U.S. Government contributions to international organizations (lines 14, 23, and 32) are
classified as imports in the BPA's and as transfer payments to foreigners in the NIPA's.
Beginning with the June 1986 BPA revision, the BPA's will reflect the classification of these
contributions as transfers.

1. 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 (first-in, first-out; last-in,
first-out; etc.) underlying book value inventories derived primarily from Census Bureau statistics. This mix differs from that underlying business income derived primarily from Internal Revenue
Service statistics.

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

NOTE.—The fixed-weighted price index and the chain price index, both of which are weighted averages of the detailed prices used in the deflation of GNP, are measures of price change. In
calculating changes in these indexes, the composition of GNP is held constant. Consequently these changes reflect only changes in prices. The fixed-weighted price index measures price change over
any period, using as weights the composition of GNP in 1982. The chain price index measures price change between two consecutive periods, using as weights the composition of GNP in the first
period. The implicit price deflator is a byproduct of the deflation of GNP. It is derived as the ratio of current- to constant-dollar GNP (multiplied by 100). It it the average of the detailed prices used
in the deflation of GNP, but the prices are weighted by the composition of GNP in each period. Consequently, the implicit price deflator reflects not only changes in prices but also changes in the
composition of GNP, and its use as a measure of price change should be avoided.

1. Except for farm proprietorships and partnerships (line 14) and other private business (line
18), the capital consumption adjustment is calculated in two parts. The adjustment for
consistent accounting at historical cost converts depreciation based on the service lives and
depreciation schedules employed by firms when filing their income tax returns to consistent
service lives and straight-line depreciation schedules. The adjustment for current replacement
cost converts the historical cost series with consistent accounting to a current replacement cost
series. For farm proprietorships and partnerships and other private business, the historical cost
series is based on consistent service lives and straight-line depreciation schedules so that the
adjustment reflects only a conversion to current replacement cost.
2. Fixed capital assets owned and used by these entities are considered to be business
activities selling their current services to their owners. The value of these services is included in
personal consumption expenditures and is equal to their current-account purchases including
capital consumption allowances with capital consumption adjustment.

1. Consists of interest paid on the deposit liabilities of commercial and mutual saving banks,
savings and loan associations, and credit unions.
2. Interest received by nonfinancial sole proprietorships and partnerships is considered
interest received by persons and is included in line 28.

income received by financial intermediaries from the investment of depositors' or beneficiaries'
funds and the interest paid by them to business, persons, governments, and foreigners. In table
8.9, imputed interest (line 52)—the interest component of imputations that affect GNP—consists
of the imputed interest paid by financial intermediaries other than life insurance carriers and
private noninsured pension plans to persons and government, and the interest paid on owneroccupied housing and on buildings and equipment owned and used by nonprofit institutions
serving individuals.

t Effective Feb. 1986 SURVEY, the money stock measures and components have been
revised and are available from the Banking Section of the Division of Research and Statistics at the Federal Reserve Board, Washington, D.C. 20551.
$ Composition of the money stock measures is as follows:
Ml.—This measure is currency plus demand deposits at commercial banks and interestearning checkable deposits at all depository institutions—namely NOW accounts, automatic transfer from savings (ATS) accounts, and credit union share draft balances—as well
as a small amount of demand deposits at thrift institutions that cannot, using present data
sources, be separated from interest-earning checkable deposits.
M2.—This measure adds to Ml overnight repurchase agreements (RP's) issued by commercial banks and certain overnight Eurodollars (those issued by Caribbean branches of
member banks) held by U.S. nonbank residents, money market mutual fund shares, and
savings and small-denomination time deposits (those issued in denominations of less than
$100,000) at all depository institutions. Depository institutions are commercial banks (including U.S. agencies and branches of foreign banks, Edge Act corporations, and foreign investment
companies), mutual savings banks, savings and loan associations, and credit unions.
MJ.—This measure equals M2 plus large-denomination time.deposits (those issued in denominations of $100,000 or more) at all depository institutions (including negotiable CD's) plus
term RP's issued by commercial banks and savings and loan associations.
L.—This broad measure of liquid assets equals M3 plus other liquid assets consisting of
other Eurodollar holdings of U.S. nonbank residents, bankers acceptances, commercial
paper, savings bonds, and marketable liquid Treasury obligations.
$$ Includes ATS and NOW balances at all depository institutions, credit union share
draft balances, and demand deposits at thrift institutions.
O Overnight (and continuing contract) RP's are those issued by commercial banks to the
nonbank public, and overnight Eurodollars are those issued by Caribbean branches of member
banks to U.S. nonbank customers.
@ Small time deposits are those issued in amounts of less than $100,000. Large time
deposits are those issued in amounts of $100,000 or more and are net of the holdings of
domestic banks, thrift institutions, the U.S. Government, money market mutual funds, and
foreign banks and official institutions.
