General Notes

Detail in these tables may not add to totals because of rounding.

Because of the formula used for calculating real gross domestic product
(GDP), the chained (1992) dollar estimates for the detailed components
do not add to the chained-dollar value of GDP or to any intermediate
aggregates. The Department of Commerce (Bureau of Economic Analysis) no
longer publishes chained-dollar estimates prior to 1982, except for
selected series.

Unless otherwise noted, all dollar figures are in current dollars.

Data in these tables reflect revisions made by the source agencies from
February 1998 through late January 1999.
