                NATIONAL INCOME AND PRODUCT ACCOUNTS

                    SECOND QUARTER 2000 GDP

                    REVISED ESTIMATES:  1997 THROUGH FIRST QUARTER 2000            

        

    Real gross domestic product -- the output of goods and services produced by labor and property

located in the United States -- increased at an annual rate of 5.2 percent in the second quarter of 2000,

according to advance estimates released by the Commerce Department's Bureau of Economic Analysis. 

In the first quarter, real GDP increased 4.8 percent.
    The Bureau emphasized that the second-quarter "advance" estimates are based on source data that

are incomplete or subject to further revision by the source agency (see the box on page 3).  The second-

quarter "preliminary" estimates, based on more comprehensive data, will be released on August  25,

2000.

         The estimates released today reflect revisions in the national income and product accounts

(NIPA's) beginning with the first quarter of 1997.  Revisions are usually made each July to incorporate

source data that are more complete, more detailed, and otherwise more appropriate than previously

available.  This release includes the revised quarterly estimates of GDP, corporate profits, and personal

income and provides an overview of the effects of the revision.
         The August 2000 Survey of Current Business will contain NIPA tables and an article describing the

revisions.  The revised estimates will be available from BEA's Web site and from STAT-USA's Web site

(see page 8).
FOOTNOTE.--Quarterly estimates are expressed at seasonally adjusted annual rates, unless otherwise specified. 

Quarter-to-quarter dollar changes are differences between these published estimates.  Percent changes are

calculated from unrounded data and annualized. "Real" estimates are in chained (1996) dollars.  Price

indexes are chain-type measures.
    The major contributors to the increase in real GDP in the second quarter were: Nonresidential fixed

investment, personal consumption expenditures (PCE) for services, inventory investment, and federal

government spending.  The contributions of these components were partially offset by an increase in

imports (which are subtracted in the calculation of GDP).
    The acceleration in real GDP in the second quarter primarily reflected upturns in inventory

investment and in federal government spending that more than offset a sharp deceleration in PCE.
    The price index for gross domestic purchases, which measures prices paid by U.S. residents,

increased 2.2 percent in the second quarter, compared with an increase of 3.8 percent in the first. 

Excluding food and energy prices, the price index for gross domestic purchases increased 1.8 percent in

the second quarter, compared with an increase of 2.8 percent in the first.
    Real personal consumption expenditures increased 3.0 percent in the second quarter, compared

with an increase of 7.6 percent in the first.  Durable goods purchases decreased 3.9 percent, in contrast to

an increase of 23.6 percent.  Nondurable goods increased 3.5 percent, compared with an increase of 6.0

percent.  Services expenditures increased 4.2 percent, compared with an increase of 5.2 percent.
    Real nonresidential fixed investment increased 19.1 percent in the second quarter, compared with an

increase of 21.0 percent in the first.  Nonresidential structures increased 13.0 percent, compared with an

increase of 22.3 percent.  Equipment and software increased 21.0 percent, compared with an increase of

20.6 percent.  Real residential fixed investment increased 3.9 percent, compared with an increase of 3.2

percent.  
    Real exports of goods and services increased 7.3 percent in the second quarter, compared with an

increase of 6.3 percent in the first.  Real imports of goods and services increased 17.0 percent, compared

with an increase of 12.0 percent.
    Real federal government consumption expenditures and gross investment increased 17.5 percent in

the second quarter, in contrast to a decrease of 14.2 percent in the first.  National defense increased 17.2

percent, in contrast to a decrease of 19.8 percent.  Nondefense increased 17.8 percent, in contrast to a

decrease of 3.3 percent.  Real state and local government consumption expenditures and gross investment

increased 0.5 percent, compared with an increase of 6.6 percent.
    The real change in private inventories added 0.99 percentage point to the second-quarter change in

real GDP, after subtracting 1.76 percentage points from the first-quarter change.  Private businesses

increased inventories $60.3 billion in the second quarter, following an increase of $36.6 billion in the first

quarter and an increase of $80.9 billion in the fourth.
    Real final sales of domestic product -- GDP less change in private inventories -- increased 4.2

percent in the second quarter, compared with an increase of 6.7 percent in the first.

Gross domestic purchases
    Real gross domestic purchases -- purchases by U.S. residents of goods and services wherever

produced -- increased 6.5 percent in the second quarter, compared with an increase of 5.6 percent in the

first.

Disposition of personal income
    Current-dollar personal income increased $130.0 billion in the second quarter, compared with an

increase of $133.5 billion in the first.  Personal tax and nontax payments increased $32.9 billion,

compared with an increase of $42.0 billion.
    Disposable personal income increased $97.1 billion in the second quarter, compared with an

increase of $91.5 billion in the first.  Real disposable personal income increased 3.4 percent, compared

with an increase of 1.9 percent.
    Personal outlays increased $91.7 billion in the second quarter, compared with an increase of $181.5

billion in the first.  Personal saving -- disposable personal income less personal outlays -- was $16.2

billion in the second quarter, compared with $11.0 billion in the first.  The personal saving rate -- saving

as a percentage of disposable personal income -- was 0.2 percent in the second quarter, unchanged from

the first quarter.

Current-dollar GDP
    Current-dollar GDP -- the market value of the nation's output of goods and services -- increased 7.8

percent, or $184.6 billion, in the second quarter to a level of $9,937.3 billion.  In the first quarter,

current-dollar GDP increased 8.3 percent, or $193.0 billion.

    Information on the assumptions used for unavailable source data is provided in a technical note that

is posted with the news release on BEA's and STAT-USA's Web sites.  Within a few days after the

release, a detailed "Key Source Data and Assumptions" file is also posted on the STAT-USA site.  In the

middle of each month, an analysis of the current quarterly estimates of GDP and related series is made

available on both Web sites; click on Survey of Current Business, "Business Situation."  

         Revision of the National Income and Product Accounts
    This release includes tables regularly shown in GDP news releases.  The revised estimates, which

begin with 1997, reflect the results of the regular annual revision of the national income and product

accounts (NIPA's).  These revisions, usually made each July, incorporate newly available and more

comprehensive source data, as well as improved estimating methodologies.  Because of the additional

data shown, tables 3, 10, and 11 are each shown as two separate tables -- 3A and 3B, 10A and 10B, and

11A and 11B.
    There are also a number of special tables that compare the revised and previously published

estimates for selected periods:  Table 1A shows the percent change in real GDP and related measures;

table 1B shows revisions to current-dollar GDP, national income, and disposition of personal income;

table 4A shows the percent change in the chain-type price indexes for GDP and related measures; and

table 11C shows revisions to corporate profits by industry.    

    
    This section of the release describes the sources of the revisions and discusses the highlights.
New source data and changes in methodology
    The newly incorporated source data that contributed the most to the revisions were the following:

Census Bureau 1997 Economic Census and 1997 Census of Governments; Census Bureau annual surveys

of manufactures, merchant wholesale trade, and retail trade for 1998, of services for 1998 and 1999, and

of state and local governments for 1998 and 1999; Census Bureau monthly survey of construction put in

place for 1997-99; federal government budget data for fiscal years 1998-2000; Internal Revenue Service

tabulations of tax returns for corporations for 1997 and 1998 and for sole proprietorships and

partnerships for 1998; Bureau of Labor Statistics tabulations of wages and salaries of employees covered

by state unemployment insurance for 1999; Department of Agriculture farm statistics for 1997-99; and

BEA international transactions accounts and capital stock statistics for 1997-99.  A table showing the

major current-dollar revisions and their sources for each component of GDP, national income, and

personal income will appear in the August issue of the Survey of Current Business.
    The revised estimates also incorporate a new data source for employer contributions to group

health insurance, which accounts for about one-half of other labor income.  The revised estimates are

based on the medical expenditure panel survey (MEPS) -- a new Department of Health and Human

Services survey that covers both health insurance purchased by employers for their employees and health

insurance provided by employers on a self-insured basis. 
Revisions to 1997-99 estimates
    The percent change from the preceding year in real GDP was revised up from 4.2 percent to 4.4

percent for 1997, was revised up from 4.3 percent to 4.4 percent for 1998, and was unrevised at 4.2

percent for 1999.
    For 1997, the largest contributors to the upward revision to real GDP growth were fixed investment

in equipment and software, personal consumption expenditures (PCE) for services, and state and local

government consumption expenditures and gross investment (state and local government spending); the

contributions of these components were partly offset by a downward revision to change in private

inventories.  For 1998, the largest contributors to the upward revision to real GDP growth were change

in private inventories, nonresidential structures, state and local government spending, and federal

government spending; the contributions of these components were partly offset by downward revisions to

PCE for services, to PCE for goods, to investment in equipment and software, to residential investment,

and by an upward revision to imports of goods and services (which are subtracted in the calculation of

GDP).  For 1999, the contributions of an upward revision to equipment and software, of a downward

revision to imports of goods and services, and of upward revisions to PCE for goods and to

nonresidential structures were offset by downward revisions to PCE for services, to exports of goods and

services, to state and local government spending, to residential investment, and to change in private

inventories.
    In general, revisions to real GDP reflect four factors:  (1) Revisions to current-dollar components of

GDP for which chained-dollar estimates are prepared by deflation, (2) revisions to the prices used in

deflation, (3) revisions to the quantities used to estimate components of real GDP by extrapolation or

direct valuation, and (4) revisions resulting from the use of revised and updated weights in the calculation

of real GDP.  In this annual revision, the revisions to real GDP primarily reflected the first two factors.
    From fourth quarter to fourth quarter, the change in real GDP was revised up from 4.1 percent to

4.3 percent for 1997, was revised down from 4.7 percent to 4.6 percent for 1998, and was revised up

from 4.6 percent to 5.0 percent for 1999.  During 1999, the upward revision was mainly accounted for by

upward revisions to investment in equipment and software and to change in private inventories, a

downward revision to imports of goods and services, and upward revisions to PCE for goods and to

nonresidential structures; PCE for services, state and local government spending, exports of goods and

services, and residential investment were revised down.
    The percent changes in real GDP for the quarters of 1997-99 were revised down for six quarters,

revised up for five quarters, and unrevised for one quarter.  The largest downward revisions were 0.4

percentage point (first quarter of 1998 and third quarter of 1998); the largest upward revisions were 1.0

percentage point (second quarter of 1997 and fourth quarter of 1999).  Changes in the chain-type price

index for GDP were revised up for eight quarters, revised down for two quarters, and unrevised for two

quarters.  The largest upward revision was 0.3 percentage point (fourth quarter of 1998); the largest

downward revision was 0.4 percentage point (fourth quarter of 1999).
    The percent change from the preceding year in the price index for gross domestic purchases was

unrevised for 1997 at 1.6 percent, revised up from 0.7 percent to 0.8 percent for 1998, and revised up

from 1.5 percent to 1.6 percent for 1999.
    Current-dollar GDP was revised up for all 3 years:  $17.6 billion, or 0.2 percent, for 1997; $30.3

billion, or 0.3 percent, for 1998; and $43.1 billion, or 0.5 percent, for 1999.  The percent change from the

preceding year was revised up from 6.2 percent to 6.5 percent for 1997, revised up from 5.5 percent to

5.7 percent for 1998, and revised up from 5.7 percent to 5.8 percent for 1999.  Current-dollar GNP

(GDP plus net income receipts from the rest of the world) was revised up for all 3 years:  $20.4 billion, or

0.2 percent, for 1997; $36.7 billion, or 0.4 percent, for 1998; and $52.0 billion, or 0.6 percent, for 1999. 

Net income receipts was revised up for all 3 years:  $2.9 billion for 1997, $6.4 billion for 1998, and $9.0

billion for 1999.  The revisions to net income receipts -- which affect GNP, national income, corporate

profits, net interest, and personal interest income -- stem from the revisions to BEA's international

transactions accounts (ITA's) that were released in June.  Although the revisions to the ITA's extended

back to 1982, the revisions prior to 1997 are not incorporated into the NIPA's at this time.  (An article

describing the revisions to the ITA's appears in the July 2000 Survey of Current Business.)
    National income was revised down for all 3 years:  $17.1 billion, or 0.3 percent, for 1997; $0.7

billion, or less than 0.1 percent, for 1998; and $26.6 billion, or 0.4 percent, for 1999.  For 1997,

downward revisions to supplements to wages and salaries and to corporate profits more than offset

upward revisions to net interest and to proprietors' income.  For 1998, downward revisions to corporate

profits, to supplements to wages and salaries, and to rental income of persons were mostly offset by

upward revisions to net interest, to proprietors' income, and to wage and salary accruals.  For 1999,

downward revisions to corporate profits, to supplements to wages and salaries, and to rental income of

persons more than offset upward revisions to net interest, to proprietors' income, and to wage and salary

accruals.
    Corporate profits from current production -- profits before tax with inventory valuation and capital

consumption adjustments -- was revised down for all 3 years:  $4.7 billion for 1997, $33.4 billion for

1998, and $36.7 billion for 1999.  Most of the downward revisions were accounted for by profits before

tax.  The capital consumption adjustment was revised down for all 3 years; the inventory valuation

adjustment was revised up for 1997, down for 1998, and up for 1999.  For profits with inventory

valuation adjustment, for 1997, profits of nonfinancial corporations more than accounted for the

downward revision.  For 1998, profits of financial corporations accounted for most of the downward

revision.  For 1999, financial corporations more than accounted for the downward revision.
    Personal income was revised down $14.1 billion, or 0.2 percent, for 1997; revised up $32.1 billion,

or 0.4 percent, for 1998; and revised down $2.2 billion, or less than 0.1 percent, for 1999.  For 1997, a

downward revision to other labor income more than offset upward revisions to personal interest income

and to proprietors' income.  For 1998, upward revisions to personal interest income, to proprietors'

income, to wage and salary disbursements, and to personal dividend income more than offset downward

revisions to other labor income and to rental income of persons.  For 1999, downward revisions to other

labor income, to rental income of persons, to wage and salary disbursements, and to transfer payments to

persons more than offset upward revisions to personal interest income, to personal dividend income, and

to proprietors' income; an upward revision to personal contributions for social insurance -- a subtraction

in calculating personal income -- also contributed to the downward revision.  For all 3 years, the large

downward revisions to other labor income were primarily to employer contributions for group health

insurance, reflecting the incorporation of data from the newly available medical expenditure panel survey, 

and to pension and profit-sharing, reflecting the incorporation of newly available Department of Labor

tabulations of IRS data on employer contributions to these plans.
    Disposable personal income (DPI) (personal income less personal tax and nontax payments) was

revised down $14.6 billion for 1997, revised up $33.8 billion for 1998, and revised down $2.0 billion for

1999.  For all 3 years, the revisions were similar to those to personal income.  The percent change from

the preceding year in real DPI was revised down from 3.3 percent to 3.1 percent for 1997, revised up

from 4.1 percent to 4.8 percent for 1998, and revised down from 4.0 percent to 3.2 percent for 1999.
    Personal outlays -- PCE, interest paid by persons, and personal transfer payments to rest of the

world (net) -- was revised up for 1997, down for 1998, and up for 1999.  For 1997, the revision was

more than accounted for by PCE.  For 1998, the revision reflected a downward revision to interest paid

by persons that more than offset an upward revision to PCE.  For 1999, the revision reflected upward

revisions to PCE and to personal transfer payments to the rest of the world (net) that more than offset a

downward revision to interest paid by persons.  The personal saving rate (personal saving as a percentage

of DPI) was revised down from 4.5 percent to 4.2 percent for 1997, revised up from 3.7 percent to 4.2

percent for 1998, and revised down from 2.4 percent to 2.2 percent for 1999.
    The statistical discrepancy is current-dollar GDP less current-dollar gross domestic income (GDI). 

It arises because most components of GDP and of GDI are estimated independently.  GDP measures final

expenditures -- the sum of consumer spending, private investment, net exports, and government

spending.  GDI measures the costs incurred and the profits earned in the production of GDP.  In concept,

GDP is equal to GDI.  In practice, they differ because they are estimated using less than perfectly

consistent source data. 
    As a result of the revisions, the statistical discrepancy is larger (in absolute value) for 1997 and

smaller for 1998 and for 1999.  The statistical discrepancy as a percentage of GDP was revised from zero

percent to 0.4 percent for 1997, revised from -0.5 percent to -0.3 percent for 1998, and revised from -1.4

percent to -0.8 percent for 1999.  The revision to the discrepancy for 1997 was accounted for by both an

upward revision to GDP and a downward revision to GDI; the revisions to the discrepancy for 1998 and

1999 were primarily accounted for by upward revisions to GDP.
Business cycle
    Real GDP reached a cyclical trough in the first quarter of 1991.  From the first quarter of 1991 to

the first quarter of 2000, the average annual rate of change for real GDP was unrevised at 3.7 percent.

                    Comparisons of Revisions to GDP
    Quarterly estimates of GDP are released on the following schedule: "Advance" estimates, 

based on source data that are incomplete or subject to further revision by the source

agency, are released near the end of the first month after the end of

the quarter; as more detailed and more comprehensive data become available,

"preliminary" and "final" estimates are released near the end of the second and third months, respectively.  The

"latest" estimates reflect the results of both annual and comprehensive revisions.
    Annual revisions are usually carried out each summer and cover the quarters of the most recent calendar

year and of the 2 preceding years.  Comprehensive (or benchmark) revisions are carried out at about 5-year

intervals and incorporate definitional and classificational changes that update the accounts to portray more

accurately the evolving U.S. economy and statistical changes that update the accounts to reflect the introduction of

new and improved methodologies and the incorporation of newly available and revised source data.
    The table below shows comparisons of the revisions between quarterly percent changes of GDP for the

different vintages of the estimates.  These comparisons can be used to assess the likely size of future revisions.  For

example, two-thirds of the revisions between the quarterly change in the advance estimate of real GDP and that in

the final estimate were within a range of -0.6 to +0.8 percentage point.  Thus, based on past history, the  fourth- quarter change in

real GDP now estimated at 5.2 percent at an annual rate, is not likely to be revised below 4.6 percent or above 6.1 percent in the next two

releases.

Note.--Users are cautioned that particularly for components

for which relative prices are changing rapidly, the use of

chained-dollar estimates to calculate component shares or component

contributions to real growth may be misleading even just a few years

from the base year.  For accurate estimates of the contributions to

percent changes in real GDP, use table 2.

  See "Explanatory Note" at the end of the tables.              Explanatory Note:  Measures of Output and Prices
     This note describes the calculation of chain-type quantity and price indexes used in the NIPA's.
     Changes in current-dollar GDP measure changes in the market value of goods, services, and structures produced in the

economy in a particular period.  These changes 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 1996--equal to

100. 
     The annual changes in quantities and prices are calculated using a Fisher formula that incorporates weights from two

adjacent years.  (Quarterly changes in quantities and prices are calculated using a Fisher formula that incorporates weights

from two adjacent quarters; quarterly indexes are adjusted for consistency to the annual indexes before percent changes

are calculated.)  For example, the 1997-98 annual percent change in real GDP uses prices for 1997 and 1998 as weights,

and the 1997-98 annual percent change in GDP prices uses quantities for 1997 and 1998 as weights.  These annual

changes are "chained" (multiplied) together to form time series of quantity and price indexes.  The Fisher formula also

produces percent changes in quantities and prices that are not affected by the choice of reference years.  In addition,

because the changes in quantities and prices calculated in this way are symmetric, in general, the product of a quantity

index and the corresponding price index equals the current-dollar index.  (BEA also publishes a measure of the price level

known as the "implicit price deflator (IPD)," which is calculated as the ratio of current-dollar value to the corresponding

chained-dollar value, multiplied by 100.  The values of the IPD are very close to the values of the corresponding

"chain-type" price index for all periods.)
     Chain-type quantity and price indexes for GDP and its major components are presented in this release as index

numbers in table 5 and in the form of percentage changes from the preceding period in tables 1, 4, 6A, and 6B.

Contributions by major components to changes in real GDP are presented in table 2.  BEA also prepares measures of real

GDP and its components in a dollar-denominated form, designated "chained (1996) dollar estimates."  For GDP and most

other series, these estimates, which are presented in table 3, are computed by multiplying the 1996 current-dollar value by

a corresponding quantity index number and then dividing by 100.  For example, if a current-dollar GDP component

equaled $100 in 1996 and if real output for this component increased 10 percent in 1997, then the chained (1996) dollar

value of this component in 1997 would be $110 ($100 x 1.10).  
     For analyses of changes over time in an aggregate or in a component, the percentage changes calculated from the

chained-dollar estimates and from the chain-type quantity indexes are the same; any differences will be small and due to

rounding.  However, because the relative prices used as weights for any period other than the reference year differ from

those used for the reference year, the chained-dollar values for the detailed GDP components will not necessarily sum to

the chained-dollar estimate of GDP or to any intermediate aggregate.  A measure of the extent of such differences is

provided by a "residual" line, which indicates the difference between GDP (or another major aggregate) and the sum of

the most detailed components in the table.  For periods close to the reference year, when there usually has not been much

change in the relative prices that are used as weights for the chain-type index, the residuals tend to be small, and the

chained (1996) dollar estimates can be used to approximate the contributions to growth and to aggregate the detailed

estimates.  As one moves further from the reference year, the residual tends to become larger, and the chained-dollar

estimates become less useful for analyses of contributions to growth.  Thus, the contributions to percent change shown in

table 2 provide a better measure of the composition of GDP growth.  In particular, for components for which relative

prices are changing rapidly, calculation of contributions using chained-dollar estimates may be misleading even just a few

years from the reference year.
