NOTE.The revised 1929-58 estimates reflect the definitional and statistical changes incorporated last year into the 1959-96 estimates including BEA's improved measures of output and prices, the change that recognizes investment, and an improved methodology for calculating depreciation. The 1959-96 estimates, which already had been revised in January 1996 to reflect these improvements, have now been revised primarily so that they will be consistent with the newly available wealth estimates presented beginning on page 69 of this issue of the SURVEY.
