National Data

A. Selected NIPA Tables

The tables in this section include the most recent estimates of gross domestic product and its components; these estimates were released on September 27, 2002 and include the "final" estimates for the second quarter of 2002. Also included are revised estimates of wages and salaries and affected income-side series for the first quarter of 2002. These revisions permit the early incorporation of seasonally adjusted quarterly information from comprehensive Bureau of Labor Statistics tabulations of wages and salaries of employees covered by State unemployment insurance. For additional information about this change in methodology, see Eugene P. Seskin and Stephanie McCulla, "Annual Revision of the National Income and Product Accounts" SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS 82 (August 2002): 7-34.
