Wages and salaries

 Private wage and salary disbursements increased $15.8 billion in February, in contrast to a
decrease of $9.5 billion in January.  Goods-producing industries' payrolls increased $0.6 billion, in
contrast to a decrease of $4.2 billion; manufacturing payrolls decreased $0.8 billion, compared with
a decrease of $2.0 billion.  Distributive industries' payrolls increased $10.7 billion, in contrast to a
decrease of $4.3 billion.  Service industries' payrolls increased $4.6 billion, in contrast to a decrease
of $1.0 billion.

 Government wage and salary disbursements increased $4.2 billion in February, compared with
an increase of $7.7 billion in January.  Pay raises for federal civilian and military personnel added an
additional $1.8 billion to the change in government payrolls in February, compared with an
additional $7.2 billion to the change in January.


Other personal income

 Proprietors' income increased $7.9 billion in February, compared with an increase of $9.5
billion in January.  Farm proprietors' income increased $4.7 billion, compared with an increase of
$4.8 billion.  Nonfarm proprietors' income increased $3.2 billion, compared with an increase of $4.7
billion.

 Transfer payments increased $6.8 billion in February, compared with an increase of $27.7
billion in January.  The January increase in transfer payments reflected 2.6-percent cost-of-living
adjustments to social security benefits and to several other federal transfer payment programs, as
well as changes in the earned income tax and child tax credit programs; together, these changes
accounted for $21.1 billion of the January increase.

 Personal interest income increased $2.2 billion in February, compared with an increase of $2.3
billion in January.  Personal dividend income increased $2.2 billion, compared with an increase of
$2.6 billion.  Rental income of persons increased $7.7 billion, compared with an increase of $5.2
billion.

 Personal contributions for social insurance -- a subtraction in calculating personal income --
increased $0.6 billion in February, compared with an increase of $5.3 billion in January.  The
January increase reflected the effect of an increase in the social security taxable wage base for
employees and the self-employed (from $80,400 to $84,900) and the effect of an increase in the
monthly premium paid by participants in the supplementary medical insurance program (Medicare
B), which together added $4.7 billion to January personal contributions.


Personal taxes and disposable personal income

 Personal tax and nontax payments increased $0.5 billion in February, in contrast to a decrease
of $93.1 billion in January.  A reduction in federal income taxes accounted for most of the January
decrease.  Provisions of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief and Reconciliation Act of 2001
reduced withheld taxes by $39.4 billion as a result of the new 10-percent tax bracket.  Indexation
provisions of current tax law reduced withheld taxes by $4.0 billion.  In addition, net nonwithheld
taxes (payments of estimated taxes plus final settlements less refunds) were reduced by $42.6 billion
based on federal budget projections for 2002.

 Disposable personal income (DPI) -- personal income less personal tax and nontax payments --
increased $49.5 billion, or 0.7 percent, in February, compared with an increase of $137.7 billion, or
1.8 percent, in January.


Personal outlays and personal saving

 Personal outlays -- PCE, interest paid by persons, and personal transfer payments to the rest of
the world (net) -- increased $44.9 billion in February, compared with an increase of $32.7 billion in
January.  PCE increased $44.6 billion, compared with an increase of $32.5 billion.

 Personal saving -- DPI less personal outlays -- was $152.1 billion in February, compared with
$147.5 billion in January.  Personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income was 2.0
percent in February, compared with 1.9 percent in January.


Real DPI and real PCE

 Real DPI -- DPI adjusted to remove price changes -- increased 0.6 percent in February,
compared with an increase of 1.7 percent in January.

 Real PCE -- PCE adjusted to remove price changes -- increased 0.5 percent in February,
compared with an increase of 0.3 percent in January.  Purchases of durable goods increased 2.5
percent, in contrast to a decrease of 0.4 percent.  Purchases of motor vehicles and parts accounted for
most of the February increase and more than accounted for the January decrease.  Purchases of
nondurable goods decreased 0.1 percent in February, in contrast to an increase of 0.8 percent in
January.  Purchases of services increased 0.4 percent, compared with an increase of 0.2 percent.


Revisions

 Estimates have been revised for October through January.  Changes in personal income,
current-dollar and chained (1996) dollar DPI, and current-dollar and chained (1996) dollar PCE for
December and January -- revised and as published in last month's release -- are shown below.

1. Equals disposable personal income deflated by the implicit price deflator for
   personal consumption expenditures.
2. Population is the total population of the United States, including the Armed
   Forces overseas and the institutionalized population.  The monthly estimate
   is the average of estimates for the first of the month and the first of the
   following month; the annual estimate is the average of the monthly estimates.
   Beginning with January 1991, first-of-the-month estimates are derived by BEA
   and are consistent with the 2000 Census of Population.  BEA will substitute
   Bureau of Census population estimates for 1991 forward when they are released
   in early 2002.

1. Equals disposable personal income deflated by the implicit price deflator for
   personal consumption expenditures.
2. Population is the total population of the United States, including the Armed
   Forces overseas and the institutionalized population.  The monthly estimate
   is the average of estimates for the first of the month and the first of the
   following month; the annual estimate is the average of the monthly estimates.
   Beginning with January 1991, first-of-the-month estimates are derived by BEA
   and are consistent with the 2000 Census of Population.  BEA will substitute
   Bureau of Census population estimates for 1991 forward when they are released
   in early 2002.
