Table 1. Principal Source Data and Estimating Methods Used in
Preparing Estimates of Current-Dollar GDP
Annual estimates:
Source data and methods used to
determine level for benchmark
and other years or used to prepare
Component an extrapolator or interpolator
Income side (Gross national income of $10,221.4 billion for 2001)
Nonfarm proprietors' income IVA See the entry for inventory
($0.9 billion) valuation adjustment under
corporate profits.
Nonfarm proprietors' income See the entry "Less: Capital
CCAdj ($86.3 billion) consumption adjustment" under
consumption of fixed capital.
Rental income of persons ($137.9 billion)
Owner-occupied nonfarm housing Benchmark years. Derived as space
($139.6 billion) rent (see entry for nonfarm
dwellings under services in
personal consumption expenditures)
less related expenses, including
property insurance from trade
source; mortgage interest and
property taxes from Census Bureau
decennial survey of residential
finance.
Other years. Same as benchmark
years except that mortgage interest
is based on mortgage debt from the
Federal Reserve Board times a BEA
interest rate and property taxes
from Census Bureau annual surveys
of State and local tax collections
Tenant-occupied non[arm housing Same as owner-occupied nonfarm
($45.4 billion) housing, adjusted to cover only
rental income accruing to persons
not primarily engaged in the
real estate business from Census
Bureau decennial survey of
residential finance.
Farms owned by nonoperator Prepared with farm proprietors'
landlords ($6.8 billion) income; see the entry for farm
proprietors' income with IVA under
proprietors' income.
Nonfarm nonresidential Benchmark years. Nonfarm
properties ($0.9 billion) nonresidential fixed ssets from
BEA capital stock series times a
rate of return on capital based on
IRS tabulations of business tax
returns.
Other years. BEA capital stock
series and judgmental trend.
Royalties ($11.7 billion) All years except the most recent
year. IRS tabulations of royalties
reported on individual income tax
returns.
Most recent year. Judgmental trend.
Capital consumption adjustment See entry for "Less: Capital
(-$66.5 billion) consumption adjustment" under
consumption of fixed capital.
Corporate profits with inventory valuation adjustment (IVA) and capital
consumption adjustment (CCAdj) ($731.6 billion)
Domestic profits before tax All years except the most recent
($519.4 billion) year. Receipts less deductions
from IRS tabulations of business
tax returns, adjusted for
understatement of income on tax
returns and for conceptual
differences.
Most recent year. Profits from
Census Bureau quarterly survey of
corporate profits, regulatory
agency reports, and compilations of
publicly available corporate
financial statements.
Rest-of-the-world profits Estimated as part of the
before tax ($150.8 billion) international transactions
accounts: For direct investment
income, BEA surveys; for
portfolio income, Treasury
Department surveys. Adjusted for
NIPA coverage of U.S. territories
and Puerto Rico; see the entry
for exports and imports of goods
under net exports of goods
and services.
Inventory valuation adjustment The IVA on the income side (for
(IVA) ($5.0 billion) corporations and for nonfarm sole
proprietorships and partnerships)
differs from the IVA on the
product side (see the entry "Change
in private inventories") because
the source data reflect different
proportions of inventories reported
on the basis of different
accounting methods (such as
last-in, first-out (LIFO)). The
income-side IVA is based on the
product-side IVA, adjusted by the
relationship between non-LIFO
inventories from IRS tabulations
of business tax returns and
non-LIFO inventories from the
Census Bureau.
Capital consumption adjustment See the entry "Less: Capital
(CCAdj) ($56.5 billion) consumption adjustment" under
consumption of fixed capital.
Net interest ($649.8 billion)
Domestic monetary interest, net All years except the most recent
($282.3 billion) year. For farm interest paid, USDA
surveys; for residential mortgage
interest paid, Census Bureau
decennial survey of residential
finance and mortgage debt from
the Federal Reserve Board times a
BEA interest rate; for most other
interest paid and received by
business, IRS tabulations of
business tax returns, adjusted for
misreporting on tax returns
and for conceptual differences.
Most recent year. For farm and
mortgage interest paid, same as the
estimates for other years; for
other interest, interest receipts
and payments from regulatory
agencies (such as the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation) and
from trade sources or by applying
BEA interest rates to interest-
bearing assets or liabilities from
Federal Reserve Board flow-of-funds
accounts.
Rest-of-the-world monetary Estimated as part of the
interest, net international transactions
(-$104.4 billion) accounts: For direct investment
income, BEA surveys; for portfolio
income, Treasury Department
surveys. Adjusted for NIPA coverage
of U.S. territories and Puerto
Rico; see the entry for exports and
imports of goods under net exports
of goods and services.
Imputed interest
Banks, credit agencies, and Property income earned on investment
investment companies of deposits less monetary
($270.6 billion) interest paid to depositors (and
for mutual depositories, profits
from IRS tabulations of business
tax returns) from annual reports of
regulatory agencies and the Federal
Reserve Board. Imputed interest
(financial services furnished
without payment) is allocated to
persons, government, and to the
rest of the world on the basis of
deposit liabilities from the same
sources.
Life insurance carriers Property income earned and profits
($201.3 billion) from IRS tabulations of business
tax returns, trade sources, and
the Federal Reserve Board.
Business transfer payments All years except the most recent
($42.5 billion) year. Payments to persons for
charitable contributions, IRS
tabulations of business tax
returns; for other components (such
as liability payments for personal
injury), information from
government agency reports and trade
sources; payments to the rest of
the world, estimated as part of
the international transactions
accounts.
Most recent year. Payments to
persons for charitable
contributions and for other
components, judgmental trend.
Indirect business tax and nontax liability ($774.8 billion)
Federal Government For excise taxes, collections from
($110.3 billion) the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
and Firearms and the IRS; for
customs duties, receipts from the
Monthly Treasury Statement; and
for nontaxes (such as fines),
receipts from OMB's Budget of the
United States.
State and local governments Receipts from Census Bureau
($664.4 billion) quinquennial census and annual
surveys, adjusted to a calendar
year basis from a fiscal year
basis.
Subsidies less current surplus of government enterprises ($47.3 billion)
Federal Government For subsidies, payments by the
($50.3 billion) Commodity Credit Corporation
(CCC) from agency reports and, for
most other agencies, outlays
from the Monthly Treasury
Statement; for current surplus,
mainly reports of various agencies,
such as the Postal Service, and
consumption of fixed capital (CFC)
estimates derived with perpetual-
inventory calculations at current
cost, based on gross investment
and on investment prices.
State and local governments For subsidies, limited to railroad
(-$3.1 billion) and electric power, Census Bureau
annual surveys of expenditures
adjusted to a calendar year basis
from a fiscal year basis and
California administrative records.
For current surplus: For current
operating receipts, mainly revenue
data from Census Bureau annual
surveys of State and local
governments, adjusted to a calendar
year from a fiscal year basis; for
current operating expenditures, see
the entries "Consumption
expenditures and gross investment"
and "Consumption of general
government fixed capital" under
State and local government.

($187.7 billion) current cost, based on gross
investment and on investment
prices.

($34.8 billion) current cost, based on gross
investment and on investment
prices.
Private ($1,106.8 billion) Perpetual-inventory calculations at
current cost, based on gross
investment and on investment
prices.
Capital consumption All years except the most recent
allowances ($1,168.4 year. For depreciation of
billion) corporations and of nonfarm sole
proprietorships and partnerships,
IRS tabulations of business tax
returns, adjusted for conceptual
differences; for other depreciation
(including for noncorporate
farms, nonprofit institutions, and
owner-occupied housing),
perpetual-inventory calculations
based on investment at acquisition
cost; for accidental damage to
fixed capital, losses reported to
insurance companies and government
agencies.
Most recent year. For depreciation
of corporations and nonfarm sole
proprietorships and partnerships,
BEA estimates of tax-return-based
depreciation; for other
depreciation and accidental damage
to fixed capital, same as above.
Less: Capital consumption For corporations and nonfarm sole
adjustment ($61.6 billion) proprietorships and partnerships,
the difference between
tax-return-based calculations
and perpetual-inventory
calculations; for others
(including noncorporate farms,
nonprofit institutions and

(1.) Personal consumption expenditures (PCE) for durable and
nondurable goods includes $14.0 billion for food produced and
consumed on farms, standard clothing issued to military
personnel, and used trucks.
(2.) The Census Bureau data for retail sales include sales of
gasoline service stations. The estimates of PCE for gasoline

without payment by financial intermediaries except life
insurance carriers."
(4.) Nonresidential structures includes $3.7 billion for
brokers' commissions on sales of structures and net purchases
of used structures.
(5.) Residential investment includes -$0,7 billion for other
structures (dormitories, fraternity and sorority houses, and
nurses' homes) and net purchases of used structures.
(6.) Compensation of employees includes -$6.2 billion for net
