U.S. INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN GOODS AND SERVICES
February 2003
Goods and Services
The U.S. Census Bureau and the Bureau of Economic Analysis, through the
Department of Commerce, announced today that total February exports of $82.4
billion and imports of $122.8 billion resulted in a goods and services deficit of
$40.3 billion, $0.9 billion less than the $41.2 billion in January, revised. February
exports were $0.4 billion more than January exports of $82.0 billion. February imports
were $0.5 billion less than January
imports of $123.3 billion.
In February, the goods deficit decreased $0.7 billion from January to $44.2 billion,
and the services surplus increased $0.2 billion to $3.9 billion. Exports of goods increased
$0.6 billion to $57.4 billion, and imports of goods decreased $0.1 billion to $101.6
billion. Exports of services decreased to $25.0 billion from $25.2 billion, and imports
of services decreased to $21.1 billion from $21.5 billion.
Goods
The January to February change in exports of goods reflected increases in capital
goods ($1.1 billion); other goods ($0.1 billion); and foods, feeds, and beverages
($0.1 billion). Decreases occurred in consumer goods ($0.5 billion) and industrial
supplies and materials ($0.1 billion). Automotive vehicles, parts,and engines were
virtually unchanged.
The January to February change in imports of goods reflected decreases in capital
goods ($1.0 billion) and foods, feeds, and beverages ($0.1 billion). Increases occurred
in industrial supplies and materials ($0.8 billion) and consumer goods ($0.1 billion).
Automotive vehicles, parts, and engines and other goods were virtually unchanged.
Services
Services exports decreased $0.2 billion from January to February. Decreases in
travel and passenger fares more than accounted for the decrease. Changes in the other
categories of services exports were small.
Services imports decreased $0.4 billion from January to February. Decreases in
travel, other transportation (which includes freight and port expenditure services),
and passenger fares more than accounted for the decrease. Changes in other categories
of services imports were small.
Goods and Services Moving Average
For the three months ending in February, exports of goods and services averaged $81.7
billion, while imports of goods and services averaged $123.8 billion, resulting in an
average trade deficit of $42.1 billion. For the three months ending in January, the average
trade deficit was also $42.1 billion, reflecting average exports of $81.9 billion and
average imports of $124.0 billion.
Selected Not Seasonally Adjusted Goods Details
The February figures showed surpluses, in billions of dollars, with Australia $0.6
(for January $0.3), Hong Kong $0.4 ($0.1), Singapore $0.3 (deficit of $0.4), and Egypt
$0.1 ($0.1). Deficits were recorded, in billions of dollars, with China $7.6 ($9.4),
Western Europe $6.6 ($7.0), Japan $5.3 ($5.2), Canada $4.3 ($4.9), Mexico $3.9 ($3.0),
OPEC $3.4 ($3.6), Taiwan $1.0 ($1.4), Brazil $0.5 ($0.6), Korea $0.5 ($1.1), and
Argentina $0.1 ($0.1).
Advanced technology products (ATP) exports were $13.7 billion in February and
imports were $14.3 billion, resulting in a deficit of $0.6 billion. February exports
were $0.6 billion more than the $13.1 billion in January, while imports were $1.1
billion less than the $15.4 billion in January.
Revisions
Goods carry-over in February was $0.3 billion (0.5 percent) for exports and $1.0
billion (1.1 percent) for imports. For January, revised export carry-over was $0.1
billion (0.2 percent), revised down from $0.3 billion (0.5 percent). For January,
revised import carry-over was $0.2 billion (0.2 percent), revised down from $0.9 billion
(0.9 percent).
Services exports for January were revised up $0.1 billion to $25.2 billion; the revision
was mostly accounted for by an upward revision in travel. Services imports for January were
revised up $0.1 billion to $21.5 billion; the revision was mostly accounted for by upward
revisions in travel and passenger fares.

INFORMATION ON GOODS AND SERVICES
GOODS
CENSUS BASIS
The Census basis goods data are compiled from the
documents collected by the U.S. Customs Service and reflect
the movement of goods between foreign countries and the 50
states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, and U.S. Foreign Trade Zones. They include
government and non-government shipments of goods, and
exclude shipments between the United States and its
territories and possessions, transactions with U.S. military,
diplomatic and consular installations abroad, U.S. goods
returned to the United States by its Armed Forces, personal
and household effects of travelers, and in-transit shipments.
The General Imports value reflects the total arrival of
merchandise from foreign countries that immediately enters
consumption channels, warehouses, or Foreign Trade Zones.
For imports, the value reported is the U.S. Customs Service
appraised value of merchandise; generally, the price paid for
merchandise for export to the United States. Import duties,
freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in bringing
merchandise to the United States are excluded.
Exports are valued at the f.a.s.- free alongside ship value of
merchandise at the U.S. port of export, based on the
transaction price including inland freight, insurance and other
charges incurred in placing the merchandise alongside the
carrier at the U.S. port of exportation.
Monthly data include actual month's transactions as well as
a small number of transactions for previous months. Each
month we revise the aggregate seasonally adjusted (current
and constant dollar) and unadjusted export, import and trade
balance figures, as well as the end-use totals for the prior
month. SITC and country detail data are not revised monthly.
The timing adjustment shown in Exhibit 14 is the difference
between monthly data as originally reported and as
recompiled. Quarterly revisions are made to the constant
dollar series. In the last month of each quarter, the current and
previous quarter are revised to incorporate the Bureau of
Labor Statistics monthly revisions and align Census and the
Bureau of Economic Analysis's quarterly data. Annual
revisions for the months are made in June to reflect
corrections received subsequent to the monthly revision. These
revisions are reflected in totals, end-use, SITC and country
summary data. The monthly end-use, commodity, and country
and area data presented in this release are on a Census basis.
This refers to Exhibits 6 - 18.
U.S./CANADA DATA EXCHANGE
AND SUBSTITUTION
The data for U.S. exports to Canada are derived from import
data compiled by Canada. The use of Canada's import data to
produce U.S. export data requires several alignments in order
to compare the two series.
1. Coverage -- Canadian imports are based on country of
origin. U.S. goods shipped from a third country are
included. U.S. exports exclude these foreign shipments.
For February 2003, these shipments totaled $61.2 million.
U.S. export coverage also excludes certain Canadian postal
shipments. For February 2003, these shipments totaled
$11.1 million.
2. Valuation -- Canadian imports are valued at point of origin
in the United States. However, U.S. exports are valued at
the port of exit in the United States and include inland
freight charges, making the U.S. export value slightly
larger. Canada requires inland freight to be reported.
Inland freight charges for February 2003 account for 1.8
percent of the value of U.S. exports to Canada.
3. Reexports -- U.S. exports include reexports of foreign
goods. Again, the aggregate U. S. export figure is slightly
larger. For February 2003, reexports to Canada were
$1,437 million.
4. Exchange Rate -- Average monthly exchange rates are
applied to convert the published data to U.S. currency. For
February 2003, the average exchange rate was 1.5121
Canadian dollars per U.S. dollar.
5. Other -- There are other minor differences which are
statistically insignificant, such as rounding error.
Canadian Estimates
Effective with January 2001 statistics, the current month data
for exports to Canada contain an estimate for late arrivals and
corrections. The following month, this estimate will be
replaced, in the press release tables only, with the actual value
of late receipts and corrections. This estimate will improve
the current month data for exports to Canada and treat late
receipts for exports to Canada in a manner more consistent
with the treatment of late receipts for exports to other
countries.
Nonsampling errors
The goods data are a complete enumeration of documents
collected by the U.S. Customs Service and are not subject to
sampling errors; but they are subject to several types of
nonsampling errors. Quality assurance procedures are
performed at every stage of collection, processing and
tabulation; however the data are still subject to several types
of nonsampling errors. The most significant of these
include reporting errors, undocumented shipments,
timeliness, data capture errors, and errors in the estimation
of low-valued transactions:
Reporting Errors: Reporting errors are mistakes or
omissions made by importers, exporters or their agents in
their import or export declarations. Most errors involve
missing or invalid commodity classification codes and
missing or incorrect quantities or shipping weights. They
have a negligible effect on import, export and balance of
trade statistics. However, they can affect the detailed
commodity statistics.
Undocumented Shipments: Federal regulations require
importers, exporters or their agents to report all merchandise
shipments above established exemption levels.
The U. S. Census Bureau has determined that not all required
documents are filed, particularly for exports.
Timeliness and Data Capture Errors: The U.S. Census
Bureau captures import and export information from
administrative documents and through various automated
collection programs. Documents may be lost, data may be
incorrectly keyed, coded or recorded. Transactions may be
included in a subsequent month's statistics if received late.
Low-valued Transactions: The total values of transactions
valued as much as or below $2,500 for exports and $2,000
($250 for certain quota items) for imports are estimated for
each country, using factors based on the ratios of low-valued
shipments to individual country totals for past periods.
The U. S. Census Bureau recommends that data users
incorporate this information into their analyses, as
nonsampling errors could impact the conclusion drawn from
the results. For a detailed discussion of errors affecting the
goods data, see "U.S. Merchandise Trade Statistics:
A Quality Profile" available on the INTERNET at
www.census.gov/foreign-trade/aip/index.htm#infopapers or

Adjustments for Seasonal and Working-Day Variations
Goods are initially classified under the Harmonized System
(HS) which describes and measures the characteristics of
goods traded. Combining trade into approximately 140
export and 140 import end-use categories makes it possible
to examine goods according to their principal uses (See
Exhibits 7 and 8). These categories are used as the basis for
computing the seasonal and working-day adjusted data.
These adjusted data are then summed to the six end-use
aggregates for publication (Exhibit 6). These data are
provided to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, from the U.S.
Census Bureau, for use in the Balance of Payments and the
National Income and Product Accounts.
The seasonal adjustment procedure is based on a model that
estimates the monthly movements as percentages above or
below the general level of each end-use commodity series
(unlike other methods that redistribute the actual series values
over the calendar year). Imports of petroleum and petroleum
products are adjusted for the length of the month. Because of
the extremely variable movements of the data series for
aircraft, users studying data trends may wish to analyze
aircraft separately from other trade.
Adjustments for Price Change
Data adjusted for seasonal variation on a constant dollar basis
(1996 base year) are presented in Exhibits 10 and 11. This
adjustment for price change is done at the lowest end-use
level possible, then summed to the six published end-use
aggregates. The deflators are primarily based upon the
monthly price indexes published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics using techniques developed for the National Income
and Product Accounts by the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
SITC Data
Goods data appearing in Exhibit 15 are classified in terms of
the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC)
Revision 3. Agricultural goods consist of non-marine food
products and other products of agriculture which have not
passed through complex processes of manufacture, such as
raw hides and skins, fats and oils, and wine. A few goods
such as essential oils, starches, casein, and albumin,
considered to be agricultural by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, have been excluded from agricultural goods and
are included in manufactured goods where they are classified
in the SITC.
Manufactured goods conform to the SITC sections that
include chemicals and related products, N.S.P.F.;
manufactured goods classified chiefly by material; machinery
and transport equipment; miscellaneous manufactured
articles, N.S.P.F.; and goods and transactions not classified
elsewhere.
Reexports are foreign merchandise entering the country as
imports, and at the time of exportation are in substantially the
same condition as when imported. Reexports, included in
overall export totals, appear as separate line items in Exhibit
15.
Advanced Technology Products (ATP)
About 500 of some 22,000 commodity classification codes
used in reporting U.S. merchandise trade are identified as
"advanced technology" codes and they meet the following
criteria:
1. The code contains products whose technology is from a
recognized high technology field (e.g., biotechnology).
2. These products represent leading edge technology in that
field.
3. Such products constitute a significant part of all items
covered in the selected classification code.
The aggregation of the goods results in a measure of advanced
technology trade which appears in Exhibit 16. This product
and commodity-based measure of advanced technology differs
from broader NAICS industry-based measures which include
all goods produced by a particular industry group, regardless
of the level of technology embodied in the goods.
BALANCE OF PAYMENTS (BOP) BASIS
Goods on a Census basis are adjusted by the Bureau of
Economic Analysis to goods on a BOP basis to bring the data
in line with the concepts and definitions used to prepare the
international and national accounts. Broadly, the adjustments
include changes in ownership that occur without goods passing
into or out of the customs territory of the United States. These
adjustments are necessary to supplement coverage of the
Census basis data, to eliminate duplication of transactions
recorded elsewhere in the international accounts, and to value
transactions according to a standard definition.
The export adjustments include:
U.S. military sales contracts - This deduction of U.S.
military sales contracts is made because the U.S. Census
Bureau has included these contracts in the goods data, but
BEA includes them in the service category "Transfers Under
U.S. Military Sales Contracts." BEA's source material for
these contracts is more comprehensive, but has no distinction
between goods and services.
Private gift parcels. This addition is made for parcels
mailed to foreigners by individuals through the U.S. Postal
Service. (Only commercial shipments are covered in Census
goods exports.)
Gold exports, nonmonetary. This addition is made for gold
that is purchased by foreign official agencies from private
dealers in the United States and held at the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York. The Census data only include gold that
leaves the customs territory.
Some smaller adjustments are also made to exports:
Deductions for repairs of goods, developed motion picture
film, and military grant-aid. Additions for sales of fish in
U.S. territorial waters, exports of electricity to Mexico, and
vessels and oil rigs that change ownership for which no
export document is filed.
The import adjustments include:
Inland freight in Canada. An addition is made for inland
freight in Canada. Imports of goods from all countries are
valued at the foreign port of export, including inland freight
charges ("customs value"). In the case of Canada, this
should be the cost of the goods at the U.S. border.
However, the customs value for imports for certain
Canadian goods is the point of origin in Canada. The BEA
makes an addition for the inland freight charges of
transporting these Canadian goods to the U.S. border to
make the value comparable to the customs value as reported
by all other countries. Insurance and freight charges for
transporting goods to the United States from all other
countries to the U.S. border are included in services by the
BEA. (The same procedure is used for Mexico as an Other
Adjustment, but is much smaller.)
Gold imports, nonmonetary. This addition is made for
gold sold by foreign official agencies to private purchasers
out of stock held at the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York. The Census data only include gold that enters the
customs territory.
Imports by U.S. military agencies. This deduction of U.S.
military sales contracts is made because the U.S. Census
Bureau has included these contracts in the goods data, but
BEA includes them in the service category "Direct Defense
Expenditures". BEA's source material is more
comprehensive, but has no distinction between goods and
services.
Some smaller adjustments are also made to imports:
Deductions for repairs of goods, and developed motion
picture film. Additions for imported electricity from
Mexico, conversion of vessels for commercial use, and
repairs to U.S. vessels abroad, and valuation of
prepackaged software imports at market value.
SERVICES
The statistics are estimates of services transactions between
foreign countries and the 50 states, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other U.S. territories
and possessions. Transactions with U.S. military, diplomatic,
and consular installations abroad are excluded because they
are considered to be part of the U.S. economy.
Services are shown in seven broad categories. Types of
services for imports and exports are the same for six of the
seven categories. For the seventh, exports is "Transfers Under
U.S. Military Sales Contracts" while for imports the category
is "Direct Defense Expenditures". The following is a brief
description of the types of services included in each category:
Travel - Purchases of services and goods by U.S. travelers
abroad and by foreign visitors to the United States. A
traveler is defined as a person who stays for a period of less
than 1 year in a country of which the person is not a
resident.
Includes expenditures for food, lodging, recreation, gifts, and
other items incidental to a foreign visit.
Passenger Fares - Fares paid by residents of one country
to residents of other countries. Receipts consist of fares
received by U.S. carriers from foreign residents for travel
between the United States and foreign countries and
between two foreign points.
Payments consist of fares paid by U.S. residents to foreign
carriers for travel between the United States and foreign
countries.
Other Transportation - Charges for the transportation of
goods by ocean, air, waterway, pipeline, and rail carriers to
and from the United States. Includes freight charges,
operating expenses that transportation companies incur in
foreign ports, and payments for vessel charter and aircraft
rentals with crew.
Royalties and License Fees - Transactions with foreign
residents involving intangible assets and proprietary rights,
such as the use of patents, techniques, processes, formulas,
designs, know-how, trademarks, copyrights, franchises,
and manufacturing rights. The term "royalties" generally
refers to payments for the utilization of copyrights or
trademarks, and the term "license fees" generally refers to
payments for the use of patents or industrial processes.
Other Private Services - Transactions with affiliated
foreigners, for which no identification by type is available,
and of transactions with unaffiliated foreigners. (The term
"affiliated" refers to a direct investment relationship, which
exists when a U.S. person has ownership or control,
directly or indirectly, of 10 percent or more of a foreign
business enterprise's voting securities or the equivalent, or
when a foreign person has a similar interest in a U.S.
enterprise.) Transactions with unaffiliated foreigners consist
of education services; financial services (includes
commissions and other transactions fees associated with
the purchase and sale of securities and noninterest income
of banks, and excludes investment income); insurance
premiums and losses; telecommunications services (includes
transmission services and value-added services); and
business, professional, and technical services. Included in the
last group are advertising services; computer and data
processing services; database and other information services;
research, development, and testing services; management,
consulting, and public relations services; legal services;
construction, engineering, architectural, and mining services;
industrial engineering services; installation, maintenance,
repair of equipment; and other services, including medical
services and film and tape rentals.
Transfers Under U.S. Military Sales Contracts (Exports
only) - Exports of goods and services in which U.S.
Government military agencies participate. Includes both
goods, such as equipment, and services, such as repair
services and training, that cannot be separately identified.
Direct Defense Expenditures (Imports only) -
Expenditures incurred by U.S. military agencies abroad,
including expenditures by U.S. personnel, payments of
wages to foreign residents, construction expenditures,
payments for foreign contractual services, and
procurement of foreign goods. Includes both goods and
services that cannot be separately identified.
U.S. Government Miscellaneous Services - Transactions
of U.S. Government nonmilitary agencies with foreign
residents. Most of these transactions involve the
provision of services to, or purchases of services from,
foreigners; transfers of some goods are also included.
Services estimates are based on quarterly, annual, and
benchmark surveys and partial information generated from
monthly reports. Service transactions are estimated at market
prices. Estimates are seasonally adjusted when statistically
significant seasonal patterns are present. No country or area
detail is available due to the lack of adequate source data
upon which to base estimates.
The revision policy is as follows: Each month, a
preliminary estimate for the current month and a revised
estimate for the immediately preceding month are
released. After a revised month is released, no further
changes are made to that month until more complete
source data become available in March, June, September,
and December. The releases in March, June, September,
and December contain revised data for the previous six
months. The release in March also contains revisions for
all months of the previous year in order to align the
seasonally adjusted monthly data with annual totals. The
release in June contains annual revisions, which reflect
updated source data and changes in estimating methodologies.
Quarterly and annual estimates of services are included as
part of the U.S. international transactions accounts,
published in the April, July, October, and January issues
of the Survey of Current Business. The next release of the
U.S. international transactions accounts is
scheduled for June 19, 2003. The Survey is available from the
Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing
Office, Washington, D.C. 20402.
