30 Personal Income by State and Region, Third Quarter 1994 (PDF)
Personal income in the Nation slowed in the third quarter of 1994 from a substantial second-quarter increase that was partly attributable to a rebound from destruction caused by the Northridge, California, earthquake. In Nevada and Florida, pickups in personal income in the third quarter partly reflected large increases in dividend, interest, and rental income that may be partly traceable to recent above-average increases in the number of retirement-age residents.

LOOKING AHEAD
Mid-Decade Review. As part of a mid-decade strategic review of the national, regional, and international accounts, BEA will publish a report in the February SURVEY that identifies the most pressing needs of the system and that recommends specific steps to address these needs. The mid-decade review is designed to guide improvements in the Federal Government’s statistical picture of the U.S. economy.

A guide to BEA statistics on U.S. multinational companies—that is, U.S. parent companies and their foreign affiliates—will appear in a forthcoming issue of the SURVEY. The guide will describe each data series on U.S. direct investment abroad and will discuss the uses and limitations of each series.
