EMBARGOED UNTIL RELEASE AT 8:30 A.M. EDT, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 29, 2015 BEA 15-18 Lisa Mataloni: (202) 606-5304 (GDP) gdpniwd@bea.gov Jeannine Aversa: (202) 606-2649 (News Media) GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT: FIRST QUARTER 2015 (ADVANCE ESTIMATE) Real gross domestic product -- the value of the production of goods and services in the United States, adjusted for price changes -- increased at an annual rate of 0.2 percent in the first quarter of 2015, according to the "advance" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the fourth quarter, real GDP increased 2.2 percent. The Bureau emphasized that the first-quarter advance estimate released today is based on source data that are incomplete or subject to further revision by the source agency (see the box on page 3 and "Comparisons of Revisions to GDP" on page 5). The "second" estimate for the first quarter, based on more complete data, will be released on May 29, 2015. The increase in real GDP in the first quarter primarily reflected positive contributions from personal consumption expenditures (PCE) and private inventory investment that were partly offset by negative contributions from exports, nonresidential fixed investment, and state and local government spending. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, increased. _____ BOX. Upcoming Annual Revision of the National Income and Product Accounts The annual revision of the national income and product accounts will be released along with the "advance" estimate of GDP for the second quarter of 2015 on July 30. In addition to the regular revision of the estimates for the most recent 3 years and for the first quarter of 2015, some series will be revised back further (for more information, see the Technical Note). The June Survey of Current Business will contain an article that previews the annual revision and the August Survey will contain an article that describes the results. ______ FOOTNOTE. Quarterly estimates are expressed at seasonally adjusted annual rates, unless otherwise specified. Quarter-to-quarter dollar changes are differences between these published estimates. Percent changes are calculated from unrounded data and are annualized. "Real" estimates are in chained (2009) dollars. Price indexes are chain-type measures. This news release is available on BEA's Web site (www.bea.gov) along with the Technical Note (www.bea.gov/newsreleases/national/gdp/2015/tech1q15_adv.htm) and Highlights (www.bea.gov/newsreleases/national/gdp/2015/pdf/gdp1q15_adv_fax.pdf) related to this release. For information on revisions, see "The Revisions to GDP, GDI, and Their Major Components" (www.bea.gov/scb/pdf/2014/08 August/0814_revisions_to_gdp_gdi_and_their_major_components.pdf) _______ The deceleration in real GDP growth in the first quarter reflected a deceleration in PCE, downturns in exports, in nonresidential fixed investment, and in state and local government spending, and a deceleration in residential fixed investment that were partly offset by a deceleration in imports and upturns in private inventory investment and in federal government spending. The price index for gross domestic purchases, which measures prices paid by U.S. residents, decreased 1.5 percent in the first quarter, compared with a decrease of 0.1 percent in the fourth. Excluding food and energy prices, the price index for gross domestic purchases increased 0.3 percent, compared with an increase of 0.7 percent. Real personal consumption expenditures increased 1.9 percent in the first quarter, compared with an increase of 4.4 percent in the fourth. Durable goods increased 1.1 percent, compared with an increase of 6.2 percent. Nondurable goods decreased 0.3 percent, in contrast to an increase of 4.1 percent. Services increased 2.8 percent, compared with an increase of 4.3 percent. Real nonresidential fixed investment decreased 3.4 percent in the first quarter, in contrast to an increase of 4.7 percent in the fourth. Investment in nonresidential structures decreased 23.1 percent, in contrast to an increase of 5.9 percent. Investment in equipment increased 0.1 percent, compared with an increase of 0.6 percent. Investment in intellectual property products increased 7.8 percent, compared with an increase of 10.3 percent. Real residential fixed investment increased 1.3 percent, compared with an increase of 3.8 percent. Real exports of goods and services decreased 7.2 percent in the first quarter, in contrast to an increase of 4.5 percent in the fourth. Real imports of goods and services increased 1.8 percent, compared with an increase of 10.4 percent. Real federal government consumption expenditures and gross investment increased 0.3 percent in the first quarter, in contrast to a decrease of 7.3 percent in the fourth. National defense decreased 0.7 percent, compared with a decrease of 12.2 percent. Nondefense increased 1.9 percent, compared with an increase of 1.5 percent. Real state and local government consumption expenditures and gross investment decreased 1.5 percent, in contrast to an increase of 1.6 percent. The change in real private inventories added 0.74 percentage point to the first-quarter change in real GDP after subtracting 0.10 percentage point from the fourth-quarter change. Private businesses increased inventories $110.3 billion in the first quarter, following increases of $80.0 billion in the fourth quarter and of $82.2 billion in the third. Real final sales of domestic product -- GDP less change in private inventories -- decreased 0.5 percent in the first quarter, in contrast to an increase of 2.3 percent in the fourth. Gross domestic purchases Real gross domestic purchases -- purchases by U.S. residents of goods and services wherever produced -- increased 1.5 percent in the first quarter, compared with an increase of 3.2 percent in the fourth. Disposition of personal income Current-dollar personal income increased $148.6 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of $146.9 billion in the fourth. The small acceleration in personal income primarily reflected an acceleration in government social benefits to persons that was partly offset by a downturn in proprietors’ income. Personal current taxes increased $16.4 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of $44.3 billion in the fourth. Disposable personal income increased $132.2 billion, or 4.1 percent, in the first quarter, compared with an increase of $102.5 billion, or 3.2 percent, in the fourth. Real disposable personal income increased 6.2 percent, compared with an increase of 3.6 percent. Personal outlays increased $7.8 billion in the first quarter, compared with an increase of $127.3 billion in the fourth. Personal saving -- disposable personal income less personal outlays -- was $727.8 billion in the first quarter, compared with $603.4 billion in the fourth. The personal saving rate -- personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income -- was 5.5 percent in the first quarter, compared with 4.6 percent in the fourth. For a comparison of personal saving in BEA's national income and product accounts with personal saving in the Federal Reserve Board's financial accounts of the United States and data on changes in net worth, go to www.bea.gov/national/nipaweb/Nipa-Frb.asp. Current-dollar GDP Current-dollar GDP -- the market value of the production of goods and services in the United States -- increased 0.1 percent, or $6.3 billion, in the first quarter to a level of $17,710.0 billion. In the fourth quarter, current-dollar GDP increased 2.4 percent, or $103.9 billion. ________ BOX.

EDT for: Gross Domestic Product: First Quarter 2015 (Second Estimate) Corporate Profits: First Quarter 2015 (Preliminary Estimate) Comparisons of Revisions to GDP Quarterly estimates of GDP are released on the following schedule: "Advance" estimates, based on source data that are incomplete or subject to further revision by the source agency, are released near the end of the first month following the end of the quarter; as more detailed and more comprehensive data become available, the "second" and "third" estimates are released near the end of the second and third months, respectively. The "latest"” estimate reflects the results of both annual and comprehensive revisions, which are typically released in late July. Annual revisions, cover at a minimum the quarters of the 3 most recent calendar years, and incorporate newly available major annual source data. Comprehensive (or benchmark) revisions are carried out at about 5-year intervals and incorporate major periodic source data, as well as improvements in concepts and methods that update the accounts to portray more accurately the evolving U.S. economy. The table below shows comparisons of the revisions between quarterly percent changes of real and current- dollar GDP for the different vintages of the estimates. From the advance estimate to the second estimate (one month later), the average revision to real GDP without regard to sign is 0.5 percentage point, while from the advance estimate to the third estimate (two months later), it is 0.6 percentage point. From the advance estimate to the latest estimate, the average revision without regard to sign is 1.2 percentage points. Larger average revisions for the latest estimates reflect the fact that comprehensive revisions include major improvements, such as the incorporation of BEA’s latest benchmark input-output accounts. The average revision (with regard to sign) from the advance estimate to the latest estimate is 0.3 percentage point, which is larger than the average revisions from the advance estimate to the second or to the third estimates. The larger average revisions to the The quarterly estimates correctly indicate the direction of change of real GDP 96 percent of the time, correctly indicate whether GDP is accelerating or decelerating about 75 percent of the time, and correctly indicate whether real GDP growth is above, near, or below trend growth about 83 percent of the time.

Real gross domestic income is current-dollar gross domestic income deflated by the implicit price deflator for gross domestic product. Note.--Users are cautioned that particularly for components that exhibit rapid change in prices relative to other prices in the economy, the chained-dollar estimates should not be used to measure the component's relative importance or its contribution to the growth rate of more aggregate series. For accurate estimates of the contributions to percent changes in real GDP, use table 2. See "Explanatory Note" at the end of the tables. Table 4.

For some components of final sales of computers, includes computer parts. 2. Farm output less intermediate goods and services purchased. 3. Consists of GDP less gross value added of farm, of households and institutions, and of general government. 4. Food excludes personal consumption expenditures for purchased meals and beverages, which are classified in food services. 5. This index is a supplemental measure that is based on household expenditures for which there are observable price measures. It excludes most implicit prices (for example, financial services furnished without payment) and the final consumption expenditures of nonprofit institutions serving households. See "Explanatory Note" at the end of the tables. Explanatory Note: NIPA Measures of Quantities and Prices Current-dollar GDP is a measure of the market value of goods, services, and structures produced in the economy in a particular period. Changes in current-dollar GDP can be decomposed into quantity and price components. Quantities, or "real" measures, and prices are expressed as index numbers with the reference year -- at present, the year 2009 -- equal to 100. Annual changes in quantities and prices are calculated using a Fisher formula that incorporates weights from two adjacent years. (Quarterly changes in quantities and prices are calculated using a Fisher formula that incorporates weights from two adjacent quarters; quarterly indexes are adjusted for consistency to the annual indexes before percent changes are calculated.) For example, the 2008-09 annual percent change in real GDP uses prices for 2008 and 2009 as weights, and the 2008-09 annual percent change in GDP prices uses quantities for 2008 and 2009 as weights. These annual changes are "chained" (multiplied) together to form time series of quantity and price indexes. Percent changes in Fisher indexes are not affected by the choice of reference year. (BEA also publishes a measure of the price level known as the implicit price deflator (IPD), which is calculated as the ratio of the current-dollar value to the corresponding chained-dollar value, multiplied by 100. The values of the IPD are very close to the values of the corresponding "chain-type" price index.) Index numbers of quantity and price indexes for GDP and its major components are presented in this release in tables 5 and 6. Percent changes from the preceding period are presented in tables 1, 4, 7, 8, and appendix table A. Contributions by major components to the percent change in real GDP are presented in table 2. Measures of real GDP and its major components are also presented in dollar-denominated form, designated "chained (2009) dollar estimates." For most series, these estimates, which are presented in table 3, are computed by multiplying the current-dollar value in 2009 by a corresponding quantity index number and then dividing by 100. For example, if a current-dollar GDP component equaled $100 in 2009 and if real output for this component increased 10 percent in 2010, then the chained (2009) dollar value of this component in 2010 would be $110 (= $100 x 110 / 100). Percent changes calculated from chained-dollar estimates and from chain-type quantity indexes are the same; any differences will be small and due to rounding. Chained-dollar values for the detailed GDP components will not necessarily sum to the chained-dollar estimate of GDP (or to any intermediate aggregate). This is because the relative prices used as weights for any period other than the reference year differ from those of the reference year. A measure of the extent of such differences is provided by a “residual” line, which indicates the difference between GDP (or other major aggregate) and the sum of the most detailed components in the table. For periods close to the reference year, when there usually has not been much change in the relative prices that are used as weights, the residuals tend to be small, and the chained-dollar estimates can be used to approximate the contributions to growth and to aggregate the detailed estimates. For periods further from the reference year, the residuals tend to be larger, and the chained-dollar estimates are less useful for analyses of contributions to growth. Thus, the contributions to percent change shown in table 2 provide a better measure of the composition of GDP growth. In particular, for components for which relative prices are changing rapidly, calculation of contributions using chained-dollar estimates may be misleading even just a few years from the reference year.
