GDP and the Economy: Preliminary Estimates for the Fourth Quarter of 2008
Real GDP declined 6.2 percent after declining 0.5 percent in the third quarter, reflecting a downturn
in exports and a larger decrease in investment in equipment and software. The fourth-quarter
estimate was revised down 2.4 percentage points from the advance estimate.

The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) will release a compre­
hensive revision of the national income and products accounts in
July. These revisions, which traditionally have occurred every 5
years, allow us to incorporate high-quality source data and make
changes to better reflect the dynamic economy. As a preview arti­
cle in this issue explains, this year’s comprehensive revision will
feature some updated definitions, including a change in the treat­
ment of disasters, in the accounts.
The article is one in a series about the upcoming comprehen­
sive revision. An article in the March 2008 issue discussed the ef­
fects of incorporating the 2002 benchmark input-output
accounts and proposed changes. An article in the May 2008 issue
described the new classification system for personal consumption
expenditures. And an article in the May 2009 issue will describe
the statistical changes to be incorporated in the revision.
Also in this issue, a BEA Briefing offers a high-level overview of
our plans to improve the BEA industry accounts, which include
plans for quarterly GDP by industry statistics and tighter integra­
tion between the benchmark input-output accounts and the an­
nual industry accounts. The result of these efforts will be more
timely statistics and more consistency across major BEA statisti­
cal programs.
As always, we’re interested in your comments and thoughts.

Taking Account...
Comprehensive revision
information now available
In late July, the Bureau of Eco­
nomic Analysis (BEA) will re­
lease the results of the 2009
comprehensive, or benchmark,
revision of the national income
and product accounts (NIPAs).
The revision will incorporate the
results of the 2002 benchmark
input-output accounts as well as
changes in definitions, classifica­
tions, statistical methods, source
data, and presentation. To help
users prepare, BEA has made a
variety of information available
on its Web site at www.bea.gov/
national/an 1.htm.
•A preview of the upcoming
tables for personal consump­
tion expenditures (PCE). The
2009 benchmark revision will
feature a new classification
system for PCE that will
define new categories of
expenditures by function and
type of product. This will
require changes to the NIPA
tables.
•Various articles published in
the S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s i ­
n ess.
This issue includes an
article about changes in defi­
nition and presentation. An
article in May 2008 previewed
the upcoming revision’s new
PCE classifications.
• Background FAQs. The fre­
quently asked questions are
part of BEA’s agency-wide
FAQ features. These FAQs are
included in the “National”
category under the subcate­
gory “NIPA Comprehensive
Revision.”




More information will be
made available as the release
date approaches.

Improvements to Survey of
C urrent Business online
BEA has launched an improved
version of its S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t
B u s i n e s s Web site, the definitive
information source about BEA
statistics and programs. The on­
line S u r v e y can be accessed at
www.bea.gov/scb/index.htm.
The redesigned site offers eas­
ier access to the vast breadth of
interactive data that BEA also
makes available across all pro­
gram areas— national, interna­
tional, regional, and industry.
The site also offers improved
search features. For example, us­
ers can now choose to search
only the S u r v e y or the entire
BEA Web site.
More improvements are be­
ing planned, and as always, cus­
tomer feedback is welcome.
Please address comments to
James Kim, Editor-in-Chief, at
customerservice@bea.gov.

A new look at prepackaged
software prices
Compared with information
technology products such as
computers and semiconductors,
software has attracted relatively
little economic research. A new
working paper from BEA econo­
mist Adam Copeland aims to
help fill this gap by constructing
a new kind of price index for
prepackaged software, a growing
segment of software investment
in the United States.

In his paper “Seasonality and
Prepackaged Software Price In­
dexes,” Copeland constructs a
seasonally adjusted price index
for prepackaged software using
detailed and comprehensive
scanner data from the NPD
Group.
Copeland’s approach to con­
structing the software compo­
nent of the cost-of-living price
index explicitly accounts for
consumer heterogeneity. In fact,
Copeland documents a large
sales surge over winter holidays
and finds that this seasonal ef­
fect is driven by such consumer
heterogeneity.
Using his index and detailed
product-level data, he finds that
from 1997 to 2003, constantquality software prices fell at an
average annual rate of 16.8 per­
cent.
To demonstrate the impor­
tance of properly accounting for
consumer heterogeneity, the
new index was compared with a
Mudgett-Stone price index, a
representative-consumer
ap­
proach to accounting for season­
ality. The comparison showed
substantial differences in the es­
timates of constant-quality an­
nual price declines.
Constructing a price index
that properly accounts for the
seasonality in software pur­
chases is important for accu­
rately measuring real personal
consumption expenditures on
prepackaged software.
The paper is available on the
BEA Web site at www.bea.gov/
papers/working_papers.htm.

GDP and the Economy
Preliminary Estimates for the Fourth Quarter of 2008
EAL GROSS domestic product (GDP) decreased
at an annual rate of 6.2 percent in the fourth quar­
ter of 2008, according to the “preliminary” estimates of
the national income and product accounts (NIPAs)
(chart 1 and tablel).1 In the third quarter, real GDP de­
clined 0.5 percent. The fourth-quarter decrease was the
largest since the first quarter of 1982. It was revised
down 2.4 percentage points from the “advance” esti­
mate (see page 9). The revision, which was large by his­
torical standards, reflected revisions to consumer
spending, exports, and inventory investment.
The steeper decline in GDP growth in the fourthquarter resulted mainly from a sharp downturn in ex­
ports and a larger decrease in investment in equipment
and software (see page 2). In contrast, imports de­
creased much more in the fourth quarter than in the
third quarter.2
• Prices of goods and services purchased by U.S. resi­
dents fell 4.1 percent in the fourth quarter after ris­
ing 4.5 percent in the third quarter (see page 8). In
the fourth quarter, energy prices turned down
sharply, and food prices decelerated. Excluding food
and energy, gross domestic purchases prices
increased 1.1 percent after increasing 2.8 percent.
• Real disposable personal income (DPI) increased
3.4 percent in the fourth quarter; in the third quar­
ter, real DPI decreased 8.5 percent (revised). The
upturn reflected a sharp downturn in the PCE
implicit price deflator that is used to deflate current-dollar DPI, and a smaller decrease in currentdollar DPI, which decreased 1.8 percent after
decreasing 3.9 percent (revised).
• The personal saving rate was 3.2 percent in the
fourth quarter, 0.3 percentage point more than the
advance estimate; in the third quarter, it was 1.3
percent (revised).

R

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

Nonresidential fixed investment decreased much more
than in the third quarter, the largest decrease since the
first quarter of 1975. The fourth-quarter decrease re­
duced the percent change in real GDP by 2.48 percent­
age points. It reflected a much larger decrease in
equipment and software and a downturn in struc­
tures.
Residential investment decreased 22.2 percent after
decreasing 16.0 percent. It was the twelfth consecutive
quarter of decline.
Inventory investment decelerated. It added 0.16 per­
centage point to the percent change in real GDP after
adding 0.84 percentage point.
Exports turned down sharply, the first decrease since
the third quarter of 2005 and the largest decrease since
the fourth quarter of 1971. The downturn reflected
widespread downturns in exports of goods. Exports of
services picked up slightly.
Imports decreased much more than in the third quar­
ter, decreasing 16.0 percent after decreasing 3.5 per­
cent. It was the fifth consecutive quarter of decline and
the largest decrease since the third quarter of 1980.
Federal government spending decelerated, reflecting a
slowdown in national defense spending. Federal non­
defense spending accelerated.
State and local government spending turned down.

Consumer spending decreased more in the fourth
quarter than in the third quarter, the largest decrease
since the second quarter of 1980. The decrease re­
duced the percent change in real GDP by 3.01 percent­
age points and reflected decreases in consumer
spending for goods; spending for services turned up.

Real final sales of domestic product, real GDP less in­
ventory investment, decreased 6.4 percent, the largest
decrease since the second quarter of 1980.
Motor vehicle output turned down sharply, decreasing
63.5 percent after increasing 7.3 percent. It subtracted
2.04 percentage points from the percent change in real
GDP, and it was the largest decrease since the fourth
quarter of 1970.
Final sales of computers decreased 2.2 percent after
decreasing 1.7 percent.

Spending for durable goods decreased more in the
fourth quarter than in the third quarter; it reduced the
percent change in real consumer spending by 2.40 per­
centage points. The fourth-quarter decrease was the
largest since the first quarter of 1987. The larger
fourth-quarter decrease primarily reflected larger de­
creases in motor vehicles and parts and in “other” du­
rable goods.
Spending for nondurable goods also decreased more
than in the third quarter. Spending for food decreased
much more than in the third quarter, and spending for
“other” nondurable goods turned down. In contrast,
spending for gasoline, fuel oil, and other energy goods
turned up.
Spending for services turned up, mainly reflecting an
upturn in spending for electricity and gas and an ac­
celeration in spending for “other” services.

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

Inventory investment in manufacturing industries
rose $31.9 billion after rising $0.4 billion; the fourthquarter increase stemmed mainly from an accumula­
tion of durable-goods inventories in the fourth quar­
ter after a drawdown in the third quarter.
Wholesale trade inventory investment fell $7.5 billion
after rising $3.2 billion. The fourth-quarter drop re­
flected mainly a drawdown of durable-goods invento­
ries after an accumulation in the third quarter.
Retail trade inventory investment decreased $30.6 bil­
lion after increasing $19.5 billion. The downturn re­
flected a liquidation of inventories by motor vehicle
and parts dealers following a third-quarter buildup
and a larger liquidation of inventories by “other” retail
stores and by general merchandise stores.
The ratio of real private inventories to real final sales
of domestic business increased to 2.39, the highest in
more than a year.

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

The downturn in exports of goods reflected large
downturns in capital goods, in industrial supplies and
materials, in automotive vehicles and parts, and in
nonautomotive consumer goods. In contrast, “other”
exports turned up.
The pickup in exports of services mainly reflected up­
turns in “other” transportation services and in “other”
exports of services. In contrast, travel and passenger
fares both turned down, and other private services
slowed.
Real imports decreased much more than in the third
quarter, and it was the largest decrease since the third
quarter of 1980.
Imports of goods decreased 19.4 percent after decreas­
ing 4.7 percent. The larger fourth-quarter decrease re­
flected a downturn in nonautomotive consumer
goods and larger decreases in nonautomotive capital
goods and in industrial supplies and machinery. In
contrast, imports of petroleum and products turned
up sharply.
Imports of services slowed. The largest contributor to
the slowdown was a downturn in royalties and license
fees.

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

1. The estimates under the contribution columns are also percent changes
N o t e . Most percent changes are from NIPA table 1.6.7; percent changes for PCE for food and energy
goods and services and for PCE excluding food and energy are calculated from index numbers in NIPA
table 2.3.4. Contributions are from NIPA table 1.6 .8 .

The price index for gross domestic purchases turned
down sharply, decreasing 4.1 percent in the fourth
quarter after increasing 4.5 percent in the third quar­
ter. The main contributor to the downturn was a
sharp downturn in prices of energy goods and ser­
vices.
Consumer prices turned down sharply, decreasing 5.0
percent after increasing 5.0 percent. The downturn
mainly reflected a sharp downturn in prices paid for
gasoline, fuel oil, and other energy goods. Prices paid
for electricity and gas services also turned down.
Prices paid for nonresidential fixed investment picked
up very slightly, primarily reflecting an acceleration in
prices paid for “other” equipment.
Prices of residential investment decreased 9.6 percent
after decreasing 3.3 percent, mainly reflecting prices of
single-family structures, which have decreased since
the first quarter of 2007.
Prices paid by government turned down, decreasing
5.9 percent after increasing 4.4 percent. The downturn
mainly reflected a downturn in prices paid for energy.
Consumer prices excluding food and energy, a mea­
sure of the “core” rate of inflation, slowed, increasing
0.8 percent after increasing 2.4 percent.
The GDP price index increased 0.5 percent, while the
gross domestic purchases price index decreased 4.1
percent. The difference reflects a relatively larger
downturn in import prices than in export prices. Im­
port prices decreased 37.1 percent after increasing 9.2
percent. Export prices decreased 21.9 percent after in­
creasing 6.7 percent.

Note on Prices
BEA’s gross domestic purchases price index is the most com­
prehensive index of prices paid by U.S. residents for all
goods and services, regardless of whether those goods and
services were produced domestically or imported. It is
derived from prices of consumer spending, private invest­
ment, and government spending.
The GDP price index measures the prices of goods and
services produced in the United States, including the prices
of goods and services produced for export.
The difference between the gross domestic purchases
price index and the GDP price index reflects the differences
between the imports prices (included in the gross domestic
purchases index) and the exports prices (included in the
GDP price index). For other measures that are affected by
import and export prices, see the dollar depreciation FAQ
Answer ID 498 on BEA’s Web site.

Real GDP decreased 6.2 percent in the fourth-quarter
preliminary estimate, 2.4 percentage points more of a
decrease than the advance estimate. The average revi­
sion (without regard to sign) between the advance estimate and the preliminary estimate is 0.5 percentage
point. The largest downward revisions were to con­
sumer spending for nondurable goods, inventory in­
vestment, and exports.
\
The downward revision to consumer spending re\
fleeted newly available Energy Information Adminis\ tration data, revised Census Bureau data on retail
'I sales, and revised Bureau of Labor Statistics seasonally
adjusted consumer price indexes used for deflation.
Gasoline, fuel oil, and other energy goods were revised
down.
The downward revision to inventory investment re­
flected Census Bureau inventory data. Manufacturing
inventories and wholesale trade inventories were re­
vised down, while construction, mining, and utilities
inventories were revised up.
Exports were revised down, reflecting newly available
Census Bureau goods data. The largest contributor
was a revision to nonautomotive capital goods.

With the release of the preliminary estimates of GDP, BEA
also releases revised estimates of various income-related
measures for the previous quarter. This revision reflects the
incorporation of newly available third-quarter tabulations
from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Wage and salary disbursements increased $50.5 billion in
the third quarter, an upward revision of $11.7 billion. Per­
sonal current taxes increased $124.6 billion, an upward revi­
sion of $2.1 billion.
Contributions for government social insurance, which are
subtracted in calculating personal income, increased $4.6
billion, an upward revision of $1.6 billion.
As a result of these revisions:
• Personal income increased $18.2 billion, an upward revi­
sion of $11.0 billion.
• Disposable personal income decreased $106.3 billion, $9.0
billion less of a decrease.
• Personal saving decreased $128.1 billion, $9.0 billion less
of a decrease.
• The personal saving rate was 1.3 percent, an upward revi­
sion of 0.1 percentage point.

Preview of the 2009 Comprehensive Revision
of the NIPAs
Changes in Definitions and Presentations
By Eugene P. Seskin and Shelly Smith

N JULY, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)
will release the initial results of the 13th comprehen­
sive, or benchmark, revision of the national income
and product accounts (NIPAs). The last comprehen­
sive revision was released in December 2003.
Traditionally, comprehensive NIPA revisions have
differed from annual NIPA revisions because of the
scope of the changes and because of the number of
years subject to revision. Comprehensive revisions
have incorporated three major types of improvements:
(1) changes in definitions and classifications that up­
date the accounts to more accurately portray the evolv­
ing U.S. economy, (2) statistical changes that update
the accounts to reflect the introduction of new and im­
proved methodologies and the incorporation of newly
available and revised source data, and (3) changes in
presentations that update the NIPA tables to reflect the
changes in definitions and the statistical changes and
to make the tables more informative.1 Comprehensive
revisions have usually been conducted at 5-year inter­
vals that correspond with the integration of updated
statistics from BEA’s quinquennial benchmark inputoutput accounts.
As part of its goal to accurately portray the changing
U.S economy, BEA in 2010 will introduce “flexible” an­
nual revisions that will retain the features of the cur­
rent annual revisions but that will also allow for the
kind of improvements that previously were reserved
for comprehensive revisions.2 For example, when nec­
essary, the current 3-year period of revision will be ex­
panded to earlier periods. In some cases, changes in
definitions and presentations, as well as new and im­
proved estimating methodologies, may also be incor­
porated as part of the flexible annual revisions. To keep
BEA’s customers up-to-date, BEA will continue to an­
nounce these planned improvements and the periods
subject to revision in advance of their implementation
to ensure that users have adequate time to determine

how best to incorporate them.
This article is the third in a series of S u r v e y o f C u r ­
r e n t B u s i n e s s articles that have discussed aspects of the
upcoming comprehensive revision. An article in
March 2008 covered not only the effects of incorporat­
ing the 2002 benchmark input-output accounts, but
also identified some of the proposals that were being
considered for the comprehensive revision.3 An article
in May 2008 described a new classification system for
personal consumption expenditures (PCE).4 An article
in May 2009 will describe the statistical changes. An ar­
ticle in September 2009 will present the results of the
revision, including estimates that reflect the effects of
the changes in definitions, the statistical changes, and
the changes in presentations.
Comprehensive revisions and the future “flexible”
annual revisions provide the opportunity to introduce
major changes that are outlined in BEA’s strategic plan
for maintaining and improving its economic ac­
counts.5 In discussing the national accounts, BEA’s
strategic plan outlines several major objectives, includ­
ing addressing data gaps and other shortcomings, im­
proving consistency and integration with other
accounts, and improving consistency with interna­
tional guidelines. The changes in definitions and pre­
sentations described in this article and the planned
statistical improvements constitute important steps to­
ward meeting each of these objectives.
The major changes in definitions and classifications
in this comprehensive revision are as follows:
• Change the treatment of disasters to better reflect
the distinctions between current transactions,
capital transactions, and events that directly affect

the recently updated System o f National Accounts
2008 (SNA 2008).6
• Reclassify transactions between the federal govern­
ment and the U.S. territories and commonwealths
in order to improve consistency with the treatment
of similar private-sector transactions.
• Change the treatment of insurance services pro­
vided by government enterprises in order to
improve consistency with the treatment of the ser­
vices provided by private property and casualty
insurance companies.
These major changes in definitions are associated
with changes in presentations. In addition, several
other important changes in presentations will be im­
plemented:
•A new classification system for personal consump­
tion expenditures
•A new presentation of the estimates of private fixed
investment in structures for 1929-96 consistent
with the estimates beginning with 1997
•A change in the reference year— from 2000 to
2005— for the chain-type quantity and price
indexes and for the chained-dollar estimates
•A change in the terminology used to describe the
vintages of the current quarterly GDP estimates
In the following sections of the article, each change
in definition is described, the reason for the change is
given, the current treatment and the new treatment are
outlined, and when noteworthy, the detailed effects on
the seven summary accounts are provided. In addition,
in the section “Changes in Presentations,” descriptions
of the major changes resulting from the changes in
treatment are provided.

Changes in Definitions
Treatment of disasters
The treatment of disasters will be changed to better re­
flect the distinctions between current transactions,
capital transactions, and events that directly affect bal­
ance sheets, and to bring the NIPAs in line with recom­
mendations of the SNA 2008.
Disasters— such as Hurricane Katrina, the terrorist
attacks of September 11, 2001, and other major catas­
trophes— affect economic activity because (1) produc­
tion is interrupted, (2) structures, equipment, and
other assets are damaged or destroyed, (3) transac­
tions, such as payments of insurance benefits or gov­
ernment disaster relief, take place as a result of the
damages incurred, and (4) the structures, equipment,
and other assets that are damaged or destroyed must
be replaced, often using funds from insurance benefits
or disaster relief. The economic effects of interrupted
production and the replacement of structures and
equipment should be included in gross domestic prod­
uct (GDP), and they are generally reflected in the
source data used to estimate GDP and the national ac­
counts. However, neither GDP nor the associated in­
come measures should be adjusted to take account of
damage to, or destruction of, assets. As part of the 2003

12

Preview of the 2009 Comprehensive NIPA Revision

comprehensive revision, BEA changed its measure of
property and casualty insurance output to ensure that
such disasters would not affect GDP.7 But under the
current treatment, the value of disaster-related losses
to fixed assets and the value of disaster-related insur­
ance payments and uninsured losses are still reflected
in the income measures; however, these values are off­
setting and do not result in a statistical discrepancy
with GDP.
An integrated set of macroeconomic, or national,
accounts incorporates the following: (1) current ac­
counts to show flows of current production, income,
consumption, and saving; (2) capital accounts to show
investment in assets— such as structures, equipment,
software, and inventories— and the financing require­
ments from internal (saving) and external (net lending
or borrowing) sources; (3) financial accounts to show
financial-asset transactions and how they are reflected
in net lending or borrowing; and (4) “other changes in
volume of assets” that are not transactions but that di­
rectly affect the balance sheet, for example, revalua­
tions (capital gains or losses) and disaster losses.8 By
classifying disaster losses in “other changes in volume
of assets” and by classifying disaster-related insurance
benefits in the capital accounts, BEA will more consis­
tently follow the accounting structure of an integrated
set of national accounts.
Current treatment. The value of the irreparable
damage to, or destruction of, fixed assets from disas­
ters is recorded in the national accounts as consump­
tion of fixed capital (CFC)— depreciation— during the
period in which the disaster occurred.9 The insurance
payouts to cover the losses of fixed assets, business in­
terruptions, or consumer durable goods are recorded
as current transfer payments or current transfer re­
ceipts. To the extent that these losses are insured, the
entries for CFC and for transfer receipts offset each
other.10 However, for losses that are not insured, the in­
7. For more information on this change, see Brent R. Moulton and
Eugene P. Seskin, “Preview of the 2003 Comprehensive Revision of the
National Income and Product Accounts: Changes in Definitions and Classi­
fications,” S u r v e y 83 (June 2003): 19-23 and Baoline Chen and Dennis J.
Fixler, “Measuring the Services of Property-Casualty Insurance in the
NIPAs,” S u r v e y 83 (October 2003): 10-26.
8. See Charlotte Anne Bond, Teran Martin, Susan Hume McIntosh, and
Charles Ian Mead, “Integrated Macroeconomic Accounts for the United
States,” S u r v e y 87 (February 2007): 14-31.
9. In general, adjustments for disasters have been made if the cost of the
damage equals at least 0.25 of 1 percent of total private CFC (about $3.8 bil­
lion in 2008). Beginning with estimates for 2002, under the new treatment,
the threshold for determining whether any single event is treated as a disas­
ter will be if either the associated property losses or the insurance payouts
exceed 0.1 percent of GDP (about $14.3 billion in 2008). The effects of
losses from events smaller than these thresholds are assumed to be already
reflected in the estimates o f CFC and net current insurance settlements.
10. Because consumer durable goods are not capitalized in the GDP
accounts, no CFC adjustment is made for the loss of these goods. Insurance
payouts for losses of these goods are recorded as personal current transfer
receipts from business.

rate profits, proprietors’ income, rental income of
persons, and the current surplus of government enter­
prises— are reduced, and they are not offset by insur­
ance payouts. This, in turn, can lead to large swings in
these income measures when disasters occur.
New treatment. Under the new treatment of disas­
ters, the value of the damage to, or destruction of, fixed
assets will no longer be recorded as CFC. Instead, be­
ginning with estimates for 1971, the value will be re­
corded as “other changes in volume of assets.” This
new treatment is consistent with the current presenta­
tion in NIPA “Table 5.9. Changes in Net Stock of Pro­
duced Assets (Fixed Assets and Inventories),” which
integrates the NIPA estimates of the flows of invest­
ment and of CFC with BEA’s estimates of the net stocks
of produced assets.11 No current-period measure of
production or income will be affected.12 Similarly, be­
ginning with estimates for 1989, the value of all disaster-related insurance payouts will be recorded as
capital transfer payments (and receipts) in NIPA sum­
mary “Account 6. Domestic Capital Account” rather
than as current transfer payments (and receipts). Be­
cause insurance payouts and receipts among domestic
sectors offset each other at the national level, only pay­
ments to and from the rest of the world will be re­
flected in this summary account.13
Effects on the accounts. As noted, the loss of capital
and the insurance payouts associated with disasters do
not affect current production. Disaster losses will no
longer be recorded as depreciation (a current business
expense), and the insurance payouts will no longer be
recorded as a charge against insurance companies’ cur­
rent profits or as current income for the claim holder.
The effects of the change in the treatment of disasters
are illustrated in table 2. Removing these losses and
payouts from the current accounts preserves the ac­
counts’ focus on major macroeconomic flows of ongo­
ing business activity. At the same time, information on
11. NIPA table 5.9 was introduced in 2000 to provide information on the
role of investment and depreciation in determining changes in the value of
the nation’s net stocks. Removing disaster losses from CFC and separately
identifying them as “other changes in volume of assets” is required for ana­
lyzing the accumulation of wealth in a manner consistent with the recom­
mendations of the SNA 2008.
12. Consistent with this change, the treatment of war losses for which
CFC is currently reflected only in the fixed-asset accounts will also be
changed, and the value of these losses will also be recorded as “other
changes in volume of assets,” beginning with estimates for 1940. War losses
and disaster losses were never included in general government CFC because
general government output is measured on a cost-of-production basis
(including CFC), and the inclusion of these losses would have increased
government output. Thus, the new treatment will bring private CFC and
government enterprise CFC in line with general government CFC.
13. However, separate estimates of capital transfers by sector will be
shown in “NIPA Table 5.10. Capital Transfers (Net).” In addition, NIPA
tables 3.1-3.3 present estimates of government capital transfers, and NIPA
table 1.12 will be modified to show corporate capital transfers.

disasters will be provided in the capital account and in
“other changes in volume of assets” in NIPA table 5.9
for long-run analysis.
More specifically, in the domestic income and prod­
uct account (account 1), net operating surplus (line 4)
will increase by the amount previously recorded in
CFC (line 7), which will now decrease by an offsetting
amount.
In the private enterprise income account (account
2), proprietors’ income, rental income of persons, and
corporate profits (lines 21-23) will increase by the
amount of uninsured losses— the difference between
CFC and the amount of insurance payouts. In addi­
tion, corporate profits of insurance companies will also
increase by the amount of insurance payouts that are
no longer recorded as an expense. “Business current

transfer payments (net)” (line 17) will increase by the
amount of net insurance payouts to persons, to busi­
ness, and to the rest of the world, which are now reclas­
sified as capital transfers.
In the personal income and outlay account (account
3), the combined effects on CFC and from disaster-re­
lated insurance payouts on proprietors’ income (line
33) and on rental income of persons (line 34) dis­
cussed for account 2 and the removal of insurance pay­
outs from “personal current transfer receipts from
business (net)” (line 38) will affect personal income
(line 40) and personal saving (line 30).
In the government receipts and expenditures ac­
count (account 4), net government saving (line 46)
will reflect the revised treatment of disasters. “Current
transfer receipts from business (net)” (line 54) will no

capital transfers. At the same time, the current surplus
of government enterprises (line 56) will increase by the
disaster-related amount previously recorded in CFC.
In the foreign transactions current account (ac­
count 5), “current taxes and transfer payments to
the rest of the world (net)” (line 63) will increase
because the disaster-related insurance payouts (pri­
marily reinsurance) from the rest of the world— a
subtraction— will be excluded. As a result, the “balance
on current account, NIPAs” (line 67) will be offset by
the same amount.
In the domestic capital account (account 6), “capital
account transactions (net)” (line 70) will now include
disaster-related insurance payouts (both primary and
reinsurance) to the rest of the world less what is re­
ceived from the rest of the world. To aid users, two new
subcomponents will be added under “capital account
transactions (net)”: (1) “transfer payments for cata­
strophic losses” (line 71) and (2) “other capital ac­
count transactions” (line 72). Gross saving (line 85)
will decrease by the same amount that “current taxes
and transfer payments to the rest of the world (net)”
(line 63) increased. “Net lending or net borrowing (-),
NIPAs” (line 73) is unchanged because the changes to
net saving (line 75) and to CFC (line 80) are offset by
the changes to “capital account transactions (net).”
In the foreign transactions capital account (account
7), “capital account transactions (net)” (line 89) will
decrease to reflect the disaster-related insurance pay­
outs received from the rest of the world that will now
be recorded in this account. The two new subcompo­
nents added to account 6 will also be added to this ac­
count. As before, “net lending or net borrowing (-),
NIPAs” (line 92) is unchanged.

Reclassification of territorial adjustments in
the government accounts
Most transactions between the U.S. government and
economic agents in the territories of Guam, the U.S.
Virgin Islands, and American Samoa and in the com­
monwealths of Puerto Rico and the Northern Mariana
Islands will now be included in federal government
current receipts and expenditures. As a result, the mea­
sures of the fiscal balance of the federal government
and its social insurance funds will be more accurate,
and their consistency and comparability with NIPA
measures of private saving will be enhanced.
Like private transactions (such as trade in goods
and services), government transactions with the terri­
tories will be treated as transactions with the rest of the
world. Inconsistencies will remain with BEA’s interna­
tional transactions accounts (ITAs), which treat the
territories as part of the domestic economy, and the




15

“territorial adjustments” shown in NIPA “Table 4.3B.
Relation of Foreign Transactions in the National In­
come and Product Accounts to the Corresponding
Items in the International Transactions Accounts” will
reflect the new treatment.
BEA’s long-run goal is to expand the coverage of
the NIPAs to include the territories and to make the
NIPAs consistent with the ITAs. To this end, BEA has a
project underway with the Department of the Interior
to work with the four insular areas (American Samoa,
Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S.
Virgin Islands) to develop macroeconomic accounts.
Current treatment. The federal government collects
certain revenues from residents of these U.S. territories
and commonwealths, and the residents of these areas
participate in several social insurance programs and
other benefit programs administered by the federal
government. Furthermore, the federal government
provides financial assistance through grants and subsi­
dies to these areas.
The revenues and expenditures of the U.S. govern­
ment associated with these areas are included in the
Budget o f the United States Government (Budget), the
Monthly Treasury Statement, and other data sources
used to derive the federal-sector estimates in the
NIPAs. However, at present, the related transactions
are excluded from the NIPA estimates of government
current receipts and expenditures by means of a “geo­
graphic” coverage adjustment that is shown in NIPA
tables 3.18A and 3.18B.
New treatment. To achieve consistency within the
NIPA framework, a number of transactions between
the U.S. government and the territories of Guam, the
U.S. Virgin Islands, and American Samoa and the
commonwealths of Puerto Rico and the Northern
Mariana Islands will be recognized as transactions be­
tween the United States and the rest of the world.
The major categories of transactions between the
federal government and the territories and common­
wealths that will be reclassified as government current
receipts and expenditures are as follows: contributions
for government social insurance, government social
benefits, grants, and subsidies.
Effects on the accounts. Classifying the transac­
tions with the territories and commonwealths as
U.S. government transactions with the rest of the
world will have a very limited effect on three NIPA
summary accounts; these effects are summarized in ta­
ble 3. In the personal income and outlay account
(account 3), the title of line 25 will become “less:
contributions for government social insurance, do­
mestic” to reflect that only the “domestic contribu­
tions” are included. In the government receipts and

16

Preview of the 2009 Comprehensive NIPA Revision

expenditures account (account 4), line 19 “contribu­
tions for government social insurance” will now
include both “domestic contributions” and “rest-ofthe-world contributions.” Finally, in the foreign trans­
actions current account (account 5), line 18, which

March 2009

shows current taxes and transfer payments “from gov­
ernment (net)” will include rest-of-the-wo rid contri­
butions, which are a form of transfer payments shown
in line 16 “current taxes and transfer payments to the
rest of the world (net).”

Insurance services provided by government
enterprises
In the 2003 comprehensive revision of the NIPAs,
the treatment of insurance services provided by
property and casualty enterprises in the private sector
was changed to recognize the implicit services funded
by investment income and to provide a more appro­
priate treatment of insured losses.14 This treatment
will now be applied to the property and casualty insur­
ance services provided by two federal government in­
surance enterprises— the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) and the Federal Crop Insurance Cor­
poration (FCIC)— and by one state enterprise— the
Florida Citizens Property Insurance Corporation
(CPIC).15
Current treatment. The current methodology for
measuring the current surplus of government property
and casualty insurance enterprises is

17

be added to the value of premiums.17 This implicit
component of insurance services is called a prem ium
supplement and reflects the fact that in setting premi­
ums, insurance companies take into account the ex­
pected income earned from investing these reserves.
However, for government enterprises, there is little evi­
dence that investment income on technical reserves
significantly affects premiums partly because reserve
funds are either small or do not exist.
Like insurance enterprises in the private sector, nor­
mal losses will be substituted for actual losses incurred
in a period in calculating the value of insurance ser­
vices of government enterprises. This change recog­
nizes that in setting premiums, insurance enterprises
do not yet know the actual losses in a period, and as a
consequence, normal losses may be used as an approx­
imation. Equation (lc) becomes
(lc*) Expenses = Normal losses + Compensation +
Intermediate inputs + CFC

(1)

Current surplus = Revenues + Subsidies - Expenses

where
(la)

Revenues = Insurance premiums

(lb)

Subsidies = Subsidies from other levels of gov­
ernment, for example, from the federal govern­
ment to a state and local government

(lc)

Expenses = Actual losses + Compensation +
Intermediate inputs + CFC

In anticipation of the change in treatment of insur­
ance services provided by government enterprises in
the upcoming comprehensive revision, the current
methodology was adjusted when large disasters oc­
curred. For example, in 2004, when a series of hurri­
canes caused significant damage in Florida, BEA
reclassified the large insurance payouts made by the
CPIC as negative current transfer receipts from busi­
ness.16 Similarly, in 2005, the payouts made by the
NFIP when Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast were
classified in the same way.
New treatment. Consistent with the treatment of
insurance enterprises in the private sector, the value
of the expected investment income on the reserve
funds held by government insurance enterprises would
14. See Moulton and Seskin, 19-23. The treatment of reinsurance was
also changed, but it is not a factor for government enterprises.
15. Other state and local government insurance enterprises exist or are
being formed, but they are either very small or are not yet in the source
data. BEA will monitor developments in this area and include additional
entities in this treatment when appropriate.
16. Government enterprise insurance payouts are shown as negative cur­
rent transfer receipts from business in order to reflect the fact that private
insurance companies obtain the coverage for policyholders from the gov­
ernment.




This substitution in turn reduces the large swings in
measured services when actual losses differ from ex­
pectations.
Normal losses will be calculated using the same
methodology adopted for the private sector during the
2003 comprehensive revision.18 Specifically, normal
losses will be calculated as a geometric-weighted mov­
ing average of past loss ratios (the ratio of actual losses
to premiums earned) multiplied by the premiums
earned during the current period. Source data on pre­
miums collected and losses paid by the FCIC and the
NFIP are identifiable in the U.S. Budget Appendix.
Source data for the CPIC are available in the Census
Bureau Government Finances surveys.
Consistent with the treatment of insurance enter­
prises in the private sector, the difference between the
actual losses and the normal losses— the net insurance
settlements— will be shown as negative “current trans­
fer receipts from business” for most periods. Net insur­
ance settlements related to catastrophic events will be
treated as capital transfer payments (see “Treatment of
disasters”).
Subsidies to federal insurance enterprises. To
further improve the consistency between the treatment
of private insurance enterprises and of government in­
surance enterprises, subsidies paid from the federal
17. In the NIPAs, these reserve funds, or technical reserves, are considered
to be owned by policyholders, and they consist of (1) premiums that have
been paid to an insurance entity but that are not yet earned because the
period for which insurance has been purchased has not yet occurred and
(2) insured losses that have occurred but for which policyholders have not
yet received payment.

government to federal insurance enterprises— specifi­
cally, to the FCIC— will now be included in calculat­
ing the current surplus of government insurance
enterprises. This new treatment will also provide con­
sistency with the treatment recommended by the SNA
2008.
The current treatment of excluding subsidies paid
from the federal government to federal insurance en­
terprises from the calculation of the current surplus of
these enterprises was based on the general exclusion of
subsidy payments from one federal entity to another in
the NIPAs. However, in undertaking the research be­
hind the change in treatment of the insurance services
provided by federal insurance enterprises, it became
clear that the current treatment of the subsidy was not
accurately reflecting the operations of the FCIC, which
was using the payment as revenue in its operating ac­
tivities, such as the setting of premium prices and of
the terms of insurance policies. At this time, only sub­
sidies to federal insurance enterprises, such as the
FCIC, will be treated as revenue in calculating their
current surplus.

Changes in Presentations
Several changes in presentations will be implemented,
including the following:
• Table changes that reflect the changes in definitions
described above
• The new classification system for personal con­
sumption expenditures
•A new presentation of the estimates of private fixed
investment in structures for 1929-96 consistent
with the estimates beginning with 1997
•A change in the reference year— from 2000 to
2005— for chain-type quantity and price indexes
and for chained-dollar estimates
•A change in the terminology used to describe the
vintages of the current quarterly GDP estimates
Detailed changes in the NIPA tables are presented in
table 4, beginning on page 21.
Table changes reflecting changes in definitions.
Most table changes that result from changes in defini­
tions are described above or in table 4. The change in
the treatment of disasters will have notable effects on
several NIPA tables that were not previously discussed:
“Table 1.12. National Income by Type of Income,” “Ta­
ble 5.1. Saving and Investment,” “Table 5.10. Capital
Transfers (Net),” and tables 7.14 and 7.16, which show
the relation of NIPA nonfarm proprietors’ income and
of NIPA corporate profits to corresponding measures
published by the Internal Revenue Service.
In table 1.12, the net corporate cash flow detail
will be modified. Net corporate cash flow, measured as
undistributed profits with capital consumption adjust­




March 2009

ment plus corporate CFC, measures the funds
generated as a result of the production process that
are available for investment. With the new treatment,
disaster-related insurance payouts will not be treated
as current expenses and will not be included in the cal­
culation of corporate profits. However, insurance pay­
outs made by private insurance companies reduce their
cash flow available for investment (and insurance re­
ceipts by companies suffering losses add to the compa­
nies’ cash flow available for investment). Therefore, in
order to continue to include the net effect of these cap­
ital transfer payments and receipts in the calculation of
corporate net cash flow, a line will be added— “Less:
Capital transfers paid (net)”— as part of the derivation
of cash flow in table 1.12.
In NIPA table 5.1, the addenda will be expanded to
include disaster losses for private domestic business,
households and institutions, and federal and state and
local governments. In NIPA table 5.10, detail will be
added that shows the net capital transfers received by
businesses and by persons. In NIPA tables 7.14 and
7.16, disaster losses will be an additional reconciliation
item for nonfarm proprietors’ income and for corpo­
rate profits.
New classification system for personal consump­
tion expenditures (PCE). As noted above, a new classi­
fication system for PCE will be incorporated in the
comprehensive revision. This new system defines new
categories of expenditures by type of product and by
function to reflect changes that have occurred in con­
sumer buying patterns since the 1940s when the cur­
rently used classifications were developed and to bring
the classifications of expenditures closer to the recom­
mendations of the SNA 2008. 19 This new system will
result in a significant redesign of the NIPA tables (see
also the box “Availability of Redesigned Tables”).
The new product structure retains the three major
product types of the current structure: durable goods,
nondurable goods, and services. In addition, a new ag­
gregate “goods”— the sum of durable goods and non­
durable goods— will be added.
Changes to the current structure include the follow­
ing:
• The separate identification within services of house­
hold consumption from nonprofit consumption
(expenses of nonprofit institutions serving house­
holds);
• The addition of new major product categories, such
as recreational goods and vehicles, food services and
accommodations, and financial services and insur­
ance;

19. See McCully and Teensma, 6-17.

• The reclassification of purchased meals and bev­
erages from nondurable goods to services under
food services and accommodations. This change is
more consistent with the definition of services as
products that cannot be stored and that are con­
sumed at the place and time of purchase.
In the new product structure, durable goods has
four major product types; in the current structure, it
has three. The additional type is recreational goods
and vehicles. The new structure for nondurable goods
has four major product types that except for food, are
generally similar to the current structure. Under the
new structure, food will consist only of “food and bev­
erages purchased for off-premises consumption.” An­
other major change in the new structure is that services
will separately identify household consumption expen­
ditures from final consumption expenditures of non­
profit institutions serving households (NPISHs). This
change will also improve consistency with the Bureau
of Labor Statistics measures of household expenditures
and the related classifications used for the consumer
price index.
The new functional structure replaces the current
structure of presenting PCE by type of expenditure. In
addition, a major feature of the new structure is the
separation of PCE into household consumption ex­
penditures and final consumption expenditures of
NPISHs, which is consistent with the services part of
the new product structure. The new functional struc­
ture also includes three new categories: communica­
tion, food services and accommodations, and financial
services and insurance.
Because of the reclassification of purchased meals
and beverages from nondurable goods to services, PCE
excluding food and energy will be redefined. In the
new structure, what is often referred to as the “core”
PCE price index will include food services. The rede­
fined price index will be more consistent with the pur­
pose of a core price index— to strip away volatile
components to reveal “underlying” inflation— because
the prices of food services are relatively stable, and this
product category’s importance has grown over time.20
Similarly, the market-based PCE
price in­
dex— which measures prices of goods and services
purchased by, or on behalf of, households, using com­
ponent consumer price indexes and producer price in­
dexes— will be redefined. Under the current structure,
the market-based PCE price index excludes the ex­
penses of NPISHs and imputed expenditures except
for owner-occupied space rent. Under the new classifi-

19

cation, the sales of primary services to households by
NPISHs will be included in the market-based PCE
price index.
The redefined market-based PCE and market-based
PCE excluding food and energy price indexes will be
added to the addenda of NIPA tables 2.3.4 and 2.8.4,
which feature quarterly and monthly PCE price in­
dexes, respectively. In addition, two new NIPA tables
that present the percent change in PCE prices will be
introduced: table 2.3.7 will present quarterly and an­
nual estimates, and table 2.8.7 will present monthly es­
timates.

Other changes in presentations
Private fixed investment in structures. In the 2003
comprehensive revision, the NIPA estimates of nonres­
idential structures, beginning with the estimates for
1997, were classified by function rather than by type.
As a result, NIPA tables 5.4.1-5.4.6, which present pri­
vate fixed investment in structures, were split into two
parts: part A, which presented estimates by type from
1929-97, and part B, which presented estimates by
function beginning with 1997. For the upcoming com­
prehensive revision, the part A series of tables will be
restated in the functional presentation, the part A se­
ries of tables by type will be discontinued, and the “B”
designation will be dropped from the table title.
Updated reference year. For the upcoming compre­
hensive revision, BEA will feature output and price
measures that use 2005 as the reference year; currently,
2000 is used as the reference year. Quantity and price
indexes at the most detailed level will be expressed as
2005 equal to 100 and will provide the inputs used for
calculating higher level chain-type measures. The esti­
mates for most tables showing “real,” or chained-dollar, estimates will begin with 1995.21
Updating the reference year will not affect the per­
cent changes in the price or quantity indexes (or
chained-dollar estimates), because these changes are
measured as chain-type indexes.22 Revisions to the per­
cent changes in NIPA aggregates will reflect the incor­
poration of newly available and revised source data as
well as changes in definitions, classifications, and
methodologies.
New names for vintages of current quarterly GDP
estimates. Effective with the release of the comprehen­
sive revision in luly, the three vintages of the current
quarterly estimates of GDP will be named “advance,”

21. The reference years used in tables 1.1.6A, 1.1.6B, and 1.1.6C (1937,
1952, and 1972, respectively) will not be changed. Table 1.1.6D will present
chained-dollar estimates for 1977-97 using 1987 as the reference year.
22. See J. Steven Landefeld and Robert P. Parker, “Preview of the Compre­

“second,” and “third.” The new terminology will not
only be more straightforward than the current desig­
nations, but it will also be more accurate in describing
the vintages of the estimates.
The estimates released near the end of the first
month after the end of the quarter will continue to be
designated “advance” estimates. The term recognizes
that for many important components of GDP, as­
sumptions must be made for the missing third
month of source data. The estimates released near the
end of the second month after the end of the quarter,
which have been designated “preliminary” estimates,
will be renamed “second” estimates. The new termi­
nology will be less ambiguous because in many statisti­
cal agencies (including BEA), “preliminary” is often
used for the first available estimates, which has not
been the case for the “preliminary” GDP estimates.
The estimates released near the end of the third
month after the end of the quarter will be named
“third” estimates instead of “final” estimates. This
change recognizes that the present designation has
caused confusion for data users because in fact, the es­
timates are not “final”; they are revised during subse­
quent annual revisions and comprehensive revisions.
Expanded table. “Table 3.2. Federal Government
Current Receipts and Expenditures” will show an addi­
tional line for dividends under “income receipts on as­
sets.” This addition reflects the increasing importance
of dividends received by the federal government as a




March 2009

result of the intervention in response to the current fi­
nancial crisis.23 Estimates will begin with the third
quarter of 2004.
Discontinued tables. Several NIPA tables will be
discontinued. As mentioned above, part A of the table
on private fixed investment in structures (NIPA table
family 5.4.1-5.4.6) will be discontinued, and the 5.4.15.4.6 part B tables will be restated historically.
As previously announced, “Table 7.19. Compari­
sons of Personal Income in the NIPAs with Adjusted
Gross Income as Published by the Internal Revenue
Service” and tables 8.1, 8.2, 8.5, and 8.6, which present
the seasonally unadjusted estimates for GDP, PCE, for­
eign transactions, and corporate profits, respectively,
will be discontinued because of budgetary consider­
ations.24
Tables 8.3 and 8.4, which present seasonally unad­
justed federal and state and local government current
receipts and expenditures, will be renumbered tables
3.22 and 3.23, respectively.

Crisis and the National Accounts” by Benjamin Mandel, S u r v e y 89 (Febru­
ary 2009): 7.

Future Directions for the Industry Accounts
By Brian C. Moyer

VER the past decade, the Bureau of Economic
Analysis (BEA) has improved its industry ac­
counts in various ways to provide a more useful and
accurate view of the economy. These improvements in­
clude providing more complete industry coverage, ac­
celerating the release of the annual input-output (I-O)
accounts and the gross domestic product (GDP) by in­
dustry accounts, and providing new supplemental, or
“satellite,” accounts that offer detailed information on
specific industries.
BEA is now formulating plans for additional im­
provements to the industry accounts. This BEA Brief­
ing provides an overview of these improvements.
These proposed changes will move the industry ac­
counts in new directions and will substantially
broaden their scope and uses. For example, BEA is
considering preparing quarterly GDP by industry sta­
tistics that would be released shortly after the quarterly
GDP estimates from the national income and product

O

U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis




accounts (NIPAs), also referred to as the GDP ac­
counts. These new industry statistics would offer a by­
industry breakout of quarterly GDP growth and would
provide— for the first time— a means for gauging cur­
rent-period industry performance.
Chart 1 shows how the proposed improvements dis­
cussed in this article will fit into BEA’s broader set of
industry and national economic statistics. Also, see the
box “Industry Accounts Overview.”
As part of its planning, BEA would like input from
users. Do the improvements described in this article
meet your needs? Are there modifications to these im­
provements that would make the accounts more use­
ful? Are there other improvements that you would like
to see? The answers to these questions— along with
feedback from other stakeholders, such as source data
providers— will help set the future direction and re­
search agenda for the industry accounts. E-mail all

Future Directions for the Industry Accounts

Further integration of the industry accounts
In the spring of 2004, BEA released its comprehensive
revision of the annual industry accounts.1 The center­
piece of this revision was the integration of the annual
1 -0 accounts with the GDP by industry accounts. For
the first time, these two sets of accounts provided con­
sistent measures of gross output, intermediate inputs,
and value added by industry. Integration was achieved
by combining source data from both sets of accounts
and weighting these data together based on relative

quality factors.2 The result was a fully consistent and
more accurate set of annual industry statistics.
BEA is now proposing to take the next step in inte­
grating the industry accounts: the integration of the
annual industry accounts with the benchmark 1-0 ac­
counts.3
The benchmark 1-0 accounts are prepared at

Industry Accounts Overview
The industry accounts provide information on the
detailed industries that make up the U.S. economy. They
consist of the annual industry accounts, the benchmark
input-output accounts, and related satellite accounts.

provide inputs to, and use outputs from, each other to
produce GDP. The annual 1-0 accounts show detail sta­
tistics for approximately 65 industries and commodities.

Annual industry accounts
The annual industry accounts for the United States con­
sist of the integrated gross domestic product (GDP) by
industry accounts and the annual input-output (I-O)
accounts. These accounts provide detailed, consistent
information on the changing structure of the U.S. econ­
omy. By tracking the detailed flows of goods and services
in the economy, these accounts show the contributions of
private industries and government to GDP, the featured
and most comprehensive measure of U.S. production.
GDP by industry accounts. These accounts provide
annual measures of current-dollar and inflation-adjusted
value added, an industry’s contribution to GDP. Value
added is measured as an industry’s gross output (sales or
receipts and other operating income, commodity taxes,
and inventory change) minus the intermediate inputs
that are used in the production process (energy, raw
materials, semifinished goods, and purchased services).
BEA prepares statistics on each industry’s gross output
and intermediate inputs and on the composition of the
income earned in producing that output (for example,
employee compensation, business taxes, and corporate
profits). This information provides the basis for compar­
ing the performance of industries and for identifying
each industry’s contribution to U.S. economic growth.
Annual 1-0 accounts. The annual 1-0 accounts pro­
vide detailed information on the flows of goods and ser­
vices that make up the production processes of
industries. They show how industries interact as they

The benchmark 1-0 accounts provide the most compre­
hensive information available on the flows of goods and
services to industries for use in production and to final
consumers in the economy. These accounts are prepared
at roughly 5-year intervals and are based on detailed data
from the economic censuses. Detailed statistics are pub­
lished for nearly 500 industries. At the heart of these
accounts are two basic national accounting tables. The
“make” table shows the detailed commodities that are
produced by industries. The “use” table shows the
detailed commodities that are used by industries (for
example, steel) and those that are purchased by final con­
sumers (for example, automobiles).




Benchmark 1-0 accounts

Satellite accounts
These accounts are supplemental accounts that provide
detailed statistics about specific industries. The travel and
tourism satellite accounts offers detailed information
about output and employment for the travel and tourism
industries and related industries. The research and devel­
opment (R&D) satellite account provides detailed infor­
mation about R&D in selected industries. It also shows
how GDP would be affected if spending on R&D were
treated as investment. BEA is currently exploring other
satellite accounts, notably a more inclusive “innovation”
account that would focus on investment in intangible
activity, a health care account, and an energy account.

roughly 5-year intervals using detailed data from the
economic censuses. These accounts are used to bench­
mark the NIPAs and the annual industry accounts.4
Traditionally, the benchmark 1-0 accounts have been
released before NIPA comprehensive revisions and
have not been fully consistent with the NIPAs or with
the annual industry accounts. The proposed integra­
tion would eliminate this inconsistency.
• The benchmark 1-0 accounts would continue to be
used to benchmark the NIPAs and the annual
industry accounts.
• The benchmark 1-0 accounts, beginning with the
release of the 2007 accounts, would be made consis­
tent with the NIPAs and with the annual industry
accounts. Consistency would be achieved through
better coordination and timing and through a care­
ful evaluation of the source data used to prepare
each set of accounts.
• The benchmark 1-0 accounts going forward would
be revised to reflect revisions to the NIPAs and to
the annual industry accounts. They would also be
revised to reflect the release of subsequent years’
benchmark 1-0 accounts. In this way, the bench­
mark 1 -0 accounts would take on a time-series
dimension.
The enhanced integration will allow users of BEA’s
accounts to seamlessly walk across the benchmark 1-0
accounts, the NIPAs, and the annual industry ac­
counts. For example, a user interested in a particular
component of consumer spending in the NIPAs could
easily access more detailed information on that com­
ponent in the benchmark 1-0 accounts. In addition,
this improvement would allow users to compare differ­
ent sets of benchmark 1-0 accounts over time. A cost
of implementing this change would be a slight delay in
the release of the benchmark 1-0 accounts; rather than
being released shortly before NIPA comprehensive re­
visions, the benchmark 1-0 accounts would be re­
leased shortly after NIPA comprehensive revisions.

Quarterly GDP by industry
The GDP by industry accounts provide a by-industry
breakout of inflation-adjusted GDP growth and
growth in GDP prices. They offer a valuable tool for
gauging industry performance and for identifying in­
dustry sources of growth. These accounts are often
used to show the impact of a particular sector— for ex-

31

ample, the finance sector— on overall economic
growth and inflation.
In 2003, BEA developed a method for accelerating
the release of its annual GDP by industry statistics.5
The “advance” GDP by industry statistics are now re­
leased each April and provide annual data for the pre­
vious year. Previously, the statistics were released in
November.
The logical next step, which BEA has proposed,
would be to develop quarterly measures of GDP by in­
dustry that would be released shortly after the quar­
terly GDP estimates from the NIPAs. For the first time,
users of BEA’s accounts would have both a traditional
breakout of GDP growth (consumer spending, invest­
ment, government spending, and net exports) and industry-by-industry
contributions
to
economic
growth.6 Such statistics would provide a new tool for
analysts and policymakers who need to gauge currentperiod industry performance.
The methodology used to prepare the new quarterly
GDP by industry statistics can be described in three
broad steps.
• Quarterly statistics would be benchmarked to the
most recent set of annual industry accounts. By­
industry extrapolations would be based on a variety
of source data, including income by industry data
from the NIPAs; receipts, shipments, and sales data
from the Census Bureau; and wage and salary data
from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
• The extrapolated data would then be balanced in an
1 -0 framework. Balancing ensures that industry
output, inputs, value added, and final uses are all
brought into alignment. This step is particularly
important because it imposes interindustry rela­
tionships that improve the accuracy of the statis­
tics.7
• Inflation-adjusted measures of quarterly GDP by
industry would be estimated using the “double­
deflation” procedure.8
BEA has proposed releasing the new quarterly GDP
by industry statistics beginning in 2011. In anticipa­
tion of this release, BEA intends to publish a series of
papers describing the new statistics and explaining the
methodology. The first of these papers is tentatively
scheduled to appear in the fall of 2009.

Product by Industry for 2002,” S u r v e y 83 (May 2003): 7-14.
6. The all-industries inflation-adjusted growth rate would differ from the
inflation-adjusted GDP growth rate by a “not allocated by industry” com­
ponent.

Future Directions for the Industry Accounts

Improved consistency, annual 1-0 accounts
and the NIPAs
As a result of the 2004 integration of the annual indus­
try accounts, BEA is now able to compare detailed sta­
tistics from the annual 1 -0 accounts with
corresponding statistics from the NIPAs. This has led
to a variety of research opportunities. BEA has pro­
posed a long-term initiative within its industry and na­
tional accounts programs to research the source data
and methodologies used to prepare major portions of
the annual 1 -0 accounts and the NIPAs. This initiative
would improve the consistency between the two sets of
accounts and would improve the quality of both sets of
accounts.
While the annual 1-0 accounts and the NIPAs are
fully consistent at the publication level, in many cases,
the underlying estimation processes are significantly
different. Consider consumer spending; while the
measures in the annual 1-0 accounts and NIPAs are
conceptually equivalent, each uses its own data sources
and methodology. The industry accounts’ “commodity
flow method” uses data on the domestic supply of
goods and services, while the NIPAs’ “retail control
method” uses data on the merchandise sales of various
retail trade establishments. Both methods have their
strengths and weaknesses. Consistency at the publica­
tion level is achieved by adjusting the commodity flow
statistics in the annual 1-0 accounts to match NIPA re­
tail control statistics. Part of BEA’s proposed research
initiative would involve a detailed analysis of the com­
modity flow and retail control methods to determine
the highest value information in each and how this in­
formation could be used to improve both the annual
1 -0 accounts and the NIPAs.

Other improvements
BEA has proposed to work closely with outside groups
and other federal agencies to improve its industry ac­
counts.
• Energy satellite account. BEA has proposed an I-Obased energy satellite account that would provide




March 2009

information on the supply, consumption, and
prices of energy-related products in the U.S. econ­
omy. This satellite account would draw heavily on
the detailed data available from the Energy Infor­
mation Administration. It would provide users with
a set of metrics for discussing energy trends and for
developing forecast models to study energy supply
and consumption dynamics.
• Industry-level production account. BEA would
work closely with the Bureau of Labor Statistics
(BLS) to develop the methods and integrated data
sources needed to prepare an industry-level produc­
tion account.9 This would involve an update of
KLEMS statistics and further work to reconcile the
measures of industry output between the BEA
industry accounts and BLS productivity accounts.10
The development of an industry-level production
account would represent a major step toward a full
set of integrated U.S. economic accounts.
• Improved measures of the knowledge economy.
BEA would work with the National Science Founda­
tion, the Census Bureau, and other groups to
develop improved source data and concepts for
measuring intangibles and innovation in the core
set of industry accounts and in supplemental satel­
lite accounts.11
The improvements outlined above will improve the
industry accounts, providing better tools to gauge U.S.
industry performance. As BEA develops more detailed
plans and a more detailed research agenda, it will pro­
vide more information.
9. Initial work by BEA and BLS on developing an integrated production
account is discussed in Michael J. Harper, Brent R. Moulton, Steven
Rosenthal, and David B. Wasshausen, “Integrated GDP-Productivity
Accounts” (paper presented at the 2009 American Economic Association
Annual Meeting in San Francisco, California, January 4, 2009).

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

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

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

1. Equals gross domestic product excluding gross value added of households
and institutions and of general government.
2. Equals gross domestic business value added excluding gross farm value
added.
3. Equals compensation of employees of nonprofit institutions, the rental
value of nonresidential fixed assets owned and used by nonprofit institutions
serving households, and rental income of persons for tenant-occupied housing
owned by nonprofit institutions.

1. Excludes software “embedded,” or bundled, in computers and other equipment.




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

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

100.
4. Chained-dollar net value added of nonfinancial corporate business is the difference between the gross product and the consumption of fixed capital.

N o t e . Chained (2 0 0 0 ) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2 0 0 0 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses weights
of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is the differ­
ence between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

inventory investment is included in government consumption expenditures.
Note. Chained (2 0 0 0 ) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2 000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is the
difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

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

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

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

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

1. Consists primarily of religious, educational, vocational, lodging, railroads, farm, and amusement and recreational
structures, net purchases of used structures, and brokers’ commissions on the sale of structures.
2. The quantity index for computers can be used to accurately measure the real growth rate of this component.
However, because computers exhibit rapid changes in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar
estimates should not be used to measure the component’s relative importance or its contribution to the growth rate of more
aggregate series; accurate estimates of these contributions are shown in table 5.3.2 and real growth rates are shown in
table 5.3.1.
3. Excludes software “embedded,” or bundled, in computers and other equipment.
4. Includes communication equipment, nonmedical instruments, medical equipment and instruments, photocopy and
related equipment, and office and accounting equipment.
5. Consists primarily of furniture and fixtures, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, mining and oilfield
machinery, service industry machinery, and electrical equipment not elsewhere classified.
6. Consists primarily of manufactured homes, improvements, dormitories, net purchases of used structures, and
brokers' commissions on the sale of residential structures.
7. Excludes net purchases of used structures and brokers’ commissions on the sale of structures.
No te . Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 currentdollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses
weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is
the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.

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

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

1. Inventories are as of the end of the quarter. The quarter-to-quarter change in inventories calculated from currentdollar inventories in this table is not the current-dollar change in private inventories component of GDP. The former is the
difference between two inventory stocks, each valued at its respective end-of-quarter prices. The latter is the change in the
physical volume of inventories valued at average prices of the quarter. In addition, changes calculated from this table are at
quarterly rates, whereas, the change in private inventories is stated at annual rates.
2. Quarterly totals at monthly rates. Final sales of domestic business equals final sales of domestic product less gross
output of general government, gross value added of nonprofit institutions, compensation paid to domestic workers, and
space rent for owner-occupied housing. It includes a small amount of final sales by farm and by government enterprises.
No te . Estimates in this table are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

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

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

1. Represents gains or losses on foreign-currency-denominated assets and liabilities due to their revaluation at current
exchange rates.
2. Includes changes in coverage due to year-to-year changes in the composition of reporting panels, primarily for bank
and nonbank estimates, and to the incorporation of survey results. Also includes capital gains and losses of direct invest­
ment affiliates and changes in positions that cannot be allocated to financial flows, price changes, or exchange-rate
changes.
3. Financial flows and valuation adjustments for financial derivatives are available only on a net basis, which is shown
on line 2; they are not separately available for gross positive fair values and gross negative fair values of financial deriva­
tives. Consequently, columns (a) through (d) on lines 4,5, and 24,25 are not available.
4. Data are not separately available for the three types of valuation adjustments; therefore, the sum of all three types is
shown in column (d). Price changes result from changes in the value of derivatives contracts due to changes in the value

A. Additional Information About the NIPA Estimates
Statistical Conventions

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

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

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

B. Suggested Reading
The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) has published
a wealth of information about the methodologies that
are used to prepare its national, industry, interna­
tional, and regional accounts. Most of this information
is available on BEA’s Web site at www.bea.gov.

National accounts
The national accounts encompass the detailed esti­
mates in the national income and product accounts
(including gross domestic product) and the estimates
of fixed assets and consumer durable goods.
National income and product accounts (NIPAs).
This series of papers documents the conceptual frame­
work of the NIPAs and the methodologies that have
been used to prepare the estimates.
An Introduction to National Income and Product
Accounts (2007)
Corporate Profits: Profits Before Tax, Profits Tax
Liability, and Dividends (2002)
Government Transactions (1988)
Measuring the Economy: A Primer on GDP and the
National Income and Product Accounts (2007)
Personal Consumption Expenditures (1990)

The methodologies described in these papers
have been updated and improved, typically as part of
the comprehensive and annual revisions of the
NIPAs.
The following S u r v e y articles describe the upcoming
2009 comprehensive revision of the NIPAs.

vember 2008) describes the source data and the meth­
ods that are used to prepare the current-dollar and real
estimates of GDP.
“Chained-Dollar Indexes: Issues, Tips on Their Use,
and Upcoming Changes” (November 2003) discusses
the advantages of using chain-weighted indexes and
the challenges of using chained dollars.
“Reliability of the NIPA Estimates of U.S. Economic
Activity” (February 2005) evaluates the principal NIPA
estimates by examining the record of revisions to
them.
“Gross Domestic Product: Revisions and Source
Data” (February 2006) describes the categories of data
that are used for the advance, preliminary, and final
quarterly estimates of GDP.

Industry accounts
The industry accounts consist of the annual industry
accounts (the input-output accounts and the gross-domestic-product-by-industry accounts), the benchmark
input-output accounts, and one satellite account.
Annual industry accounts. “Improved Annual In­
dustry Accounts for 1998-2003” (June 2004) describes
the comprehensive revision of the annual input-output
accounts and the GDP-by-industry accounts that features
the integration of the two sets of accounts.
“Annual Industry Accounts” (February 2008) pre­
sents the annual revision of these accounts and de­
scribes the source data and any changes in the methods
that are used to prepare the estimates.
“Preview of the Comprehensive Revision of the
Annual Industry Accounts: Integrating the Annual Input-Output Accounts and the Gross-Domestic-Product-by-Industry Accounts” (March 2004) provides the
details about the comprehensive revision.
Benchmark input-output accounts. “Preview of the
Benchmark Input-Output Accounts for 2002” (Septem­
ber 2005) includes the proposed new sectors that are
based on the 2002 North American Industry Classifica­
tion System.

International transactions accounts. The Balance
o f Payments o f the United States: Concepts, Data
Sources, and Estimating Procedures (1990) describes the
methodologies used to prepare the estimates in the
ITAs and the international investment position of the
United States. These methodologies are usually up­
dated and improved as part of the annual revisions of
the international transactions accounts.
The annual revisions of the international transac­
tions accounts are described in a series of articles, the
latest of which was published in the July 2 0 0 8 S u r v e y .
Direct investment. International Direct Investment:
Studies by the Bureau o f Economic Analysis (1999) is a

sues in defining and measuring insurance, wholesale
and retail trade, finance, construction, and utilities ser­
vices and explores possible actions to address these is­
sues.

come and gross domestic product. The following
methodologies are available on BEA’s Web site at
www.bea.gov/ regional/methods.cfm.
Personal income. Estimates of personal income
are prepared for states and for local areas.
State Personal Incom e (2007) describes the im­

timates for counties, metropolitan divisions and ar­
eas, micropolitan areas, and BEA economic areas
and regions.
Gross domestic product. Estimates of gross do­
mestic product (GDP) are prepared for states and
metropolitan areas.
Gross D om estic Product by State (2006) describes
