the BUSINESS SITUATION

Basic trends in economic activity arebeing obscured by the auto strike, andthis will continue to be the case duringthe post-strike period. It will thereforebe some time before there is much clearevidence as to the strength of themoderate expansion that developedbefore the strike.

Additional information has becomeavailable to round out the picture ofdevelopments in the third quarter. TheNation's output expanded modestly bututilization of manpower and of physicalcapacity remained far below potential.Output per man-hour improved sub-stantially; this held down the rise in unitlabor costs and contributed to a modestincrease in corporate profits.

-L\-S this issue of the SURVEY went topress, a national agreement had beenannounced between General MotorsCorporation and the striking auto work-ers, and ratification by the union rank-and-file was expected shortly. Althoughsome plants will remain shut until localissues are resolved, tentative plans callfor regaining a fairly substantial rate ofproduction by early December. The im-pact of the strike, during the more than2 months of full shutdown, was largeenough to obscure basic trends in eco-nomic activity. It will continue to bedifficult to assess the underlying stateof the economy during the post-strikeperiod, as efforts are made to recouplost production and sales.

It will therefore be some time beforethere is much clear evidence as to thestrength of the moderate expansion thatdeveloped before the strike. Residentialconstruction is quite evidently expand-ing, and construction spending by State

and local governments also continues torecover. Beyond that, the picture is lessclear—especially in regard to consumerdemand, which is the key to the strengthof the economic outlook in the nearterm. Consumers remained very cau-tious in the third quarter, once againsaving a large share of income, and theauto strike has undoubtedly worked tosustain cautious attitudes. The strikehad a direct effect on the incomes of avery substantial number of people—counting both strikers and those affectedin industries supplying GM. More gen-erally, the strike was of such a magni-tude that it likely had an unsettlingeffect on the attitudes of many whowere not directly affected at all.

Additional information has becomeavailable to round out the picture ofdevelopments in the third quarter. TheNation's output expanded modestly bututilization of manpower and of physicalcapacity remained far below potential.With labor input cut further, output perman-hour improved substantially. Asin the second quarter, the productivitygain held down the rise in unit laborcosts, and this was an important factorcontributing to a modest increase incorporate profits. As to the centrallyimportant question of price behavior,there were some indications of a slow-down in the rate of increase. The evi-dence was mixed, however, and pricesgenerally continued to rise at an un-acceptable rate.

It is taking a painfully long time forprice behavior to show any marked re-sponse to the substantial restraint thathas been put on the economy. TheNation experienced several years ofserious inflation, which worked its wayinto costs and prices, as well as atti-

tudes, throughout the economy. Excessdemand has been eliminated. However,it is a very difficult task to reverse deepseated inflationary expectations, and theprocess by which wages and other costscome to reflect the changed conditionsis proving to be very slow. Some prog-ress has been made in affecting basiccost (and price) behavior. A good deal

more is needed, however, and achievingit will be more difficult in conditions ofexpanding economic activity.

Productivity and Labor Costs

Recent improvements in productivityhave contributed very substantially tomoderating the uptrend of labor costs(chart 1). Following five quarters ofvery small increases or actual declines,output per man-hour rose 3/4 percentat a seasonal!}^ adjusted annual rate inthe second quarter and 4% percent inthe third. With output essentiallyunchanged in the spring and onlymodestly higher in the summer, theimprovement in productivity waslargely the result of rather sizablereductions in man-hours.

Since early last year, output andman-hours have followed a coursetypical of that seen during cyclicalfluctuations in business activity. Inperiods of slackening demand, pres-sures on profits force business to payincreasingly close attention to costs. Asoperations are trimmed, firms reducethe work-week, cut hiring, and in manycases proceed eventually to lay offworkers. The adjustment of man-hoursin the early phases of a contractiontends to be slow, however, and this isespecially true if businessmen believe—as many apparently did last year—thatthe economic slowdown will be briefand mild. In any event, an adjustmentin man-hours which trails the slowdownin output naturally has an adverseeffect on productivity. Once the man-hours adjustment is well underway,

however, it is likely to persist even afterthe economy has resumed an expan-sionary course. Alan-hours often con-tinue to decline for a short while andthen tend to increase more slowly thanoutput, as firms find that they can dowithout "excess fat" that had ac-cumulated in the earlier expansion.Consequently, output per man-hourtypically registers strong increases inthe early stages of economic recovery.

Developments in the closing monthsof this year are of course obscured bythe work stoppage at GM. However,the fact that business has now beenstreamlining operations for more thana year suggests that cost consciousnessis a dominant attitude. It thus seemslikely that the growth of man-hourswill not be commensurate with growthof output, at least in the near term, sothat some further sizable gains inproductivity appear to be in the offing.

The improvement in productivitythat has already occurred has served tooffset a major part of the continuedlarge increases in hourly compensation,and the rise in unit labor costs hasslowed noticeably. In the third quarter,compensation per man-hour in theprivate economy rose at a seasonallyadjusted annual rate of nearly 7% per-cent. That increase was roughly in linewith recent experience; it was a littlelarger than the rise in the first half of1970 and a little smaller than that in thesecond half of last year. In the past twoquarters, however, the recovery in out-put per man-hour has held the averagerise in unit labor costs to an annual rateof 2% percent, far below the pace in thepreceding 2 years. It seems clear at thisjuncture in the anti-inflationary strug-gle that sustaining this significant im-provement in unit labor costs is the keyto future cost-price developments. Ifunit costs begin to accelerate sharply,the prospects for achieving a reductionin inflationary pressures will be dimindeed.

Union wage rates

Although union members compriseonly a relatively small share of the laborforce, developments in union contractnegotiations this year are an important

factor contributing to the sustainedrapid increase in average hourly com-pensation. The contracts negotiated in1970 have not only provided very largeincreases—larger even than those nego-tiated last year—but they have affectedan unusually large number of workers.The number of workers involved reflectsthe prevalence of multiyear contracts,coupled with the fact that the termina-tions of such contracts are not evenlydistributed through time. A substantialnumber of them run in the same 3-yearcycle and are up for renegotiation thisyear.

The large size of this year's contractsettlements suggests an insensitivity tothe slack condition of economic activity.To some extent, these outcomes reflectforces peculiarly associated with themultiyear bargaining pattern. Becausemost major contracts expiring this yearwere last negotiated 3 years ago, and willnot be renegotiated until 1973, settle-ments are bound to reflect the infla-tionary conditions of the last few years.In the last round of negotiations, infla-tion was not so dominant an issue and,in many cases, cost-of-living adjust-ment clauses were traded off for othertypes of benefits. Now there is greatpressure on union leaders to "catchup"with the rise in prices and in the gen-eral wage level in the intervening period,and to allow for the possibility of con-tinued inflation.

The prevailing pattern in 1970, as inother recent years, is for the first-yearincreases under new multiyear contractsto be larger than the deferred increasesprovided for subsequent years. The im-pact of this practice is especially signifi-cant this year because some 5 millionworkers—an unusually large number—are covered by contracts up for re-negotiation. In short, 1970 negotiationscover a very large number of workerswhose demands are swollen by the in-flationary buildup during the life oftheir expiring contracts. This conjunc-tion of events, occurring at a criticaltime, is complicating the task of slow-ing the rate of increase in prices andcosts. It should be recognized, however,that the 3-year contract cycle can alsowork the other way, to have a moderat-ing influence on the behavior of labor

compensation in "light" bargainingyears when relatively few workersnegotiate new contracts.

Major contracts

Data compiled by the Bureau ofLabor Statistics show that major con-tracts (covering 1,000 or more workers)negotiated in the first 9 months of 1970provided a median first-year increasein straight time hourly earnings of10^ percent, compared with 8 percentin 1969. The acceleration occurredprimarily in nonmanufacturing indus-tries, where the median first-year in-crease negotiated through Septemberwas 15^ percent, up from 10 percentlast year. The construction and truckingindustries accounted for most of thisjump. In manufacturing, the first-yearincrease negotiated through Septemberwas 8 percent, compared with Tpercentlast year. The manufacturing settle-ments included contracts primarily inthe rubber, electrical equipment, andapparel industries.

Most workers not involved in newnegotiations are receiving deferred in-creases provided by negotiations inearlier years, and some increases arebeing received under cost-of-living ad-justment clauses. Taken together, thefirst-year increases negotiated this yearand the deferred increases (includingcost-of-living adjustments) have anoverall impact on wage rates this yearwhich can be expressed as the "effectivewage increase" (EWI) for workerscovered by major contracts. If theEWI calculated for the first 9 months ofthe year is a reasonable indicator ofthat for the full year, then the medianEWI in 1970 for workers under majorcontracts will be about 6^ percent,up sharply from about 5 percent in 1969.

Union vs. nonunion wage behavior

Workers covered by major contractsare only a small portion of all nonfarmworkers. An interesting and an import-ant question, therefore, is whether non-union wages are responding more sensi-tively to the slowdown in economicactivity. Data bearing On this question

are compiled only for manufacturing.These data suggest that overall wagebehavior in nonunion firms is in factmore responsive to fluctuations inaggregate economic activity.

It is reasonable that this should be thecase. In the nonunion sector, the grant-ing of increases and the size of the in-creases given probably tend to be moresubject to management discretion. More-over, wage actions which occur annu-ally, as is generally the case in the non-union sector, should be more sensitiveto current conditions than actionstaken under contracts negotiated every2 or 3 years.

BLS calculates on an annual basisthe median "effective wage adjust-ment" (EWA) for union and fornonunion manufacturing workers. TheEWA for a given year is the percentagechange in straight time hourly earningswhich occurs in that year. It reflectsall changes occurring in the year andis based on data for all "situations"reported to BLS, including situationswith decreases and no change as wellas those with increases. The EWAthus differs from the "effective wageincrease," which includes increases only.In general, the pattern of the union

and nonunion EWA's over the pastdecade has indicated a greater sensi-tivity in nonunion establishments(chart 2).

Data compiled by BLS for the first6 months of 1970 can be used to makerough estimates of the union and non-union EWA's for 1970. The two majorfactors influencing the EWA for anyyear are the size of the increases re-ceived by workers (whether the resultof current or past decisions) and thepercentage of workers receiving in-increases. For union manufacturingworkers, the effective increase (EWI)was higher in the first 6 months of1970 than in the same period last year,and almost all union workers receivedsome kind of increase. For nonunionworkers, both the EWI and the per-centage receiving increases were downin the first half of the year from thefirst half of last year.

On the basis of these data, themedian effective wage adjustment forunion workers in manufacturing thisyear can be estimated at perhaps 6to 6% percent, up 1 to 1% percentagepoints from last year. The nonunioneffective wage adjustment can be esti-mated at approximately 3% to 4

percent, down 1 to 1% points fromlast year, indicating a considerablygreater responsiveness of nonunionwages—on average—to the state ofeconomic activity.

Corporate Profits

During the third quarter, before-taxbook profits of corporations registeredtheir first increase in more than a year,rising $3 billion at a seasonally adjustedannual rate. Half of the increase re-flected inventory profits; the balanceresulted from both a small expansion incorporate output and a slight improve-ment in profit margins. At $85 billion,pre-tax book profits were nevertheless$8 billion below the record level reachedin the first two quarters of 1969.

Widespread increases among non-manufacturing industries accounted formost of the third quarter profit ad-vance. Profits in manufacturing showedlittle change in the aggregate, largelybecause earnings of the automobile in-dustry were down very sharply. It hasbeen in manufacturing, particularly indurable goods manufacturing, that mostof the recent profits decline has oc-curred. Manufacturing profits in thethird quarter were roughly $7 billionbelow their level in the first half of1969.

The third quarter expansion in profitsresulted in increased tax liabilities of

billion, and after-tax profits rosebillion to $45% billion. (The be-

havior of after-tax profits was not af-fected by the complete elimination ofthe tax surcharge at midyear; in theestimates of profits in the national in-come accounts, allowance was made asof the first quarter for the full-yeareffect of the surcharge elimination.)Dividends were up only slightly in thethird quarter and retained earnings rosemore than $1 billion. Capital consump-tion allowances (mainly depreciationcharges) continued to advance and cashflow rose $2% billion. This followed adecline of $2% billion in the yearending in the second quarter, and wasthe largest increase in internally gener-ated funds since the closing quarter of1967.

The book value measure of profitsincludes gains or losses due to the dif-ference between the replacement cost ofgoods taken out of inventory and thecost at which they are charged to pro-duction. These inventory profits orlosses are excluded from the profitscomponent of national income—an ag-gregate which measures the factor in-comes arising from current production—by the "inventory valuation adjust-ment77 (IVA). Inventory profits rose$1% billion in the third quarter. Afteradjusting for this, the national incomemeasure of pre-tax profits rose $1%billion to $79 billion.

The volume of corporate output in-creased only modestly and the improve-ment in profits was to a considerableextent due to expansion of profit mar-gins—i.e., profit per unit of real output.The average price per unit of non-financial corporate output continued onits steady upward course, rising a littlemore than 1 percent, but unit costsslowed noticeably, primarily because ofa marked moderation in unit labor costs(chart 3). The latter development pre-sumably reflected a productivity gainwhich offset continued increases inhourly compensation.

The summer improvement in profitsand cash flow will no doubt help relievesome of the severe liquidity strain inthe corporate sector. It appears thatliquidity improved somewhat during thesummer as corporations added to liquidasset holdings and made strenuousefforts to restructure their debt maturi-ties. Corporations have substantially re-duced short-term debt liabilities—mainly bank loans and open marketpaper—in large part funding theseliabilities through the issue of long-term securities.

With demand slack and the manufac-turing utilization rate down sharplyfurther (to 76% percent in the thirdquarter), it appears that any near-termincrease in profits will be channeledto improving corporate liquidity posi-tions and not used for investment inplant and equipment. The latest OBE-SEC survey, taken in August, showedbusinessmen expecting virtually nogrowth in capital spending in the thirdand fourth quarters of this year. Theresults of this year's final quarterly

survey are not yet compiled. Althoughbusinessmen's plans for capital spend-ing in 1971 are of necessity still tenta-tive, there are indications from privatesurveys that spending will grow verylittle next year, and that the realvolume of investment will probablydecline.

Federal Deficit

The Federal Government recordedanother large budget deficit in the thirdquarter. As measured in the nationalincome accounts, the deficit was at anannual rate of $11% billion, down from$14% billion in the second quarter.There has been a deficit in each quarterof 1970 and another large deficit is inprospect for the fourth quarter.

contrast, every quarter in 1969 showeda substantial surplus. However, thisswing in the Federal budget position islargely the result of the slowdown ineconomic activity. The "high employ-ment budget," which is a measure ofFederal fiscal impact that attempts toabstract from the effects on revenues ofchanges in economic activity, has notchanged very much over the past year.

The modest expansion of economicactivity in the third quarter resulted ina $3l/2 billion increase in taxes on in-comes and profits. This was more thanoffset, however, by the revenue lossesresulting from the mid-year expirationof the surtax and increase in the per-sonal tax exemption, and total receiptsfell $1% billion to $195% billion.

Expenditures were at an annual rateof $206% billion, down $4% billion fromthe second quarter. Apart from theeffects of special factors, expendituresin fact changed very little—rising byonly $}i billion, or about $1 billion lessthan the increase in the second quartercalculated on a comparable basis. Thevery small increase in the third quarterwas the net result of higher net interestand subsidy payments, offset by reduc-tions in defense purchases, grants-in-aid, and transfer payments.

The major factor affecting the recentbehavior of total expenditures was thelarge retroactive payment of highersocial security benefits and Federal pay.This one-time payment (amounting toabout $5}i billion) swelled the expendi-ture figure in the second quarter butwas absent in the third. Partly off-setting this swing was the fact that thethird quarter expenditure total wasswelled by another retroactive pay-

ment—about three quarters of a billiondollars—resulting from a pay increasefor postal workers.

Income and Employment inOctober

Wage and salary disbursements weredown sharply in October and personalincome fell $2% billion at a seasonallyadjusted annual rate. Government pay-rolls declined about $1% billion becausethe retroactive payment to postalworkers, which swelled September in-come by almost $2 billion, was not inthe October figures. Private payrollsdeclined sharply, as a $5% billion dropin manufacturing wage and salary dis-bursements far outweighed a moderaterise in nonmanufacturing pay. Themanufacturing decline reflected theheavy impact of the strike in the autoindustry and was most pronounced inthe transportation equipment and pri-mary metals industries. Smaller de-clines, which were probably also due ingood part to the auto strike, wereregistered in the fabricated metals,machinery, electrical equipment, andrubber industries. It should be pointedout that the decline in private payrollsresulting from the auto strike waspartially offset by union strike benefits,which are not included in the personalincome figures.

Transfer payments were up nearly $2billion last month, mainly because of anonrecurring retroactive payment ofrailroad retirement annuities. Othernonwage components of income re-corded small changes.

The effects of the auto strike wereclearly visible in the reduction of more

than 600,000 workers, seasonally ad-justed, on the payrolls of manufacturers.Although employment was down inmost major industries, the declinecentered in durable goods manufactur-ing, particularly in transportation equip-ment. The decline in manufacturing waspartly offset by increases elsewhere,mainly in trade, services, and State andlocal government. Total nonfarm pay-roll employment fell 480,000, seasonallyadjusted.

The average workweek was un-changed last month following a sharpdrop in September. The September re-duction was probably overstated be-cause the survey week included LaborDay, and persons who did not receiveholiday pay were reported as havingreduced hours that week. The factthat the average workweek did notrecover in October probably reflectedproduction cutbacks and shortenedwork schedules associated with the autostrike.

The effects of the auto strike are moredifficult to identify in the data on thetotal civilian labor force, in large partbecause striking employees are countedas employed. In October, both thecivilian labor force and employmentrose more than seasonally, with adultwomen accounting for the bulk of gains.The number of workers unemployedwas up only a bit and the overall un-employment rate— at 5.6 percent—wasessentially unchanged from September.The jobless rates for most major groupsin the labor force were also about un-changed in October. The rate formarried men rose 0.2 percentage pointto 3.1 percent, continuing the trendevident since late last year.

Sources and Uses of Funds of Foreign Affiliatesof U.S. Firms, 1967-68

Foreign affiliates of U.S. firms hadincreased sources and uses of funds in1968. However, their reliance on fundsfrom the U.S. was reduced, probablyreflecting the impact of the ForeignDirect Investment Program.

A HIS article presents data on sourcesand uses of funds of foreign affiliates ofU.S. firms for 1967 and 1968.1 Sourcesand uses totaled $10.7 billion in 1968(excluding income paid out), a rise of$1.6 billion over 1967. Most of the risewas used for building up inventoriesand current receivables, while invest-ment in property, plant and equipmentrose only slightly from 1967. Funds ob-tained from the United States fell,probably reflecting the impact of theForeign Direct Investment Programwhich was made mandatory in 1968.Funds obtained abroad rose; while theProgram may have contributed to thisrise, other factors were probably moreimportant. Retained earnings and de-preciation and depletion also rose, butremained about the same portion oftotal sources.

The data presented here are relatedto the capital and income flows in thebalance of payments accounts, but thereare differences in concept and in cover-age. Essentially, sources and uses ac-counts are oriented towards an overviewof the financial developments of theforeign affiliates, rather than only flowsbetween U.S. parents and affiliates.Sources of funds include all retainedearnings, depreciation and depletion,all funds received from the UnitedStates (not only those the affiliates re-

ceived from their U.S. parents), andfunds received from foreigners. Uses offunds include property, plant, andequipment expenditures of the affiliates,changes in inventories and in currentreceivables. The relation betweenbalance of payments flows and thesedata are discussed in detail at the endof this article.

In respect to coverage, the data dis-cussed here are based on annual reports

from about 450 U.S. parent companiescovering approximately 4,000 foreignaffiliates; in contrast, the balance ofpayments reports cover more than twiceas many parent firms and foreign af-filiates. Furthermore, this report islimited to three industries—mining andsmelting, petroleum, and manufactur-ing—while all industries are included inthe balance of payments data.

the 1967 and 1968 reported data onsources and uses to figures representingthe universe of foreign affiliates, nor isthe data for 1963-65, which is also in-cluded, expanded. While these data donot constitute a measure of total flowsor absolute amounts, they do representa reasonably consistent, but unmatched,sample of larger firms, giving a rela-tively accurate impression of the trendin the foreign affiliates' sources and usesof funds. When originally published, the1963-65 data were blown up on thebasis of the benchmark given by the1957 census of direct investments. How-ever, it was felt that 1957 was not asuitable benchmark for the 1967-68data. Sources and uses data for a newbase year have been collected—alongwith much other information—in thecensus of U.S. direct investment for1966; these data cover about 3,500 U.S.parents and almost 25,000 foreign af-filiates. When processing of the 1966census is completed, the sources anduses figures for 1967 and 1968 will berevised to incorporate the new bench-mark information.

UsesTotal uses of funds amounted to $14.5

billion in 1968, of which $3.7 billionwas income paid out; if this is excluded,

adjusted uses were $10.7 billion (tables1 and 2). Of the adjusted total, 64 per-cent went for expenditures on property,plant, and equipment, 8 percent tofinance increased inventories, 14 percentto finance increased current receivables,and 14 percent for other assets.

The rise in adjusted uses in 1968 was$1.6 billion. However, expenditures forproperty, plant, and equipment in-creased only $0.1 billion. There wasconsequently a fall in such expendituresas a percent of adjusted uses in 1968.Expenditures in the developed countriesshowed sizable declines in 1968, offsetby increases in the less developedcountries. The drop in Europe was par-ticularly noticeable. This may havebeen partly related to the direct invest-ment program, since controls are morestringent on outflows to developedcountries. However, cyclical factorswere probably more important. Eco-nomic growth in Europe was quite slowin 1967 (particularly in Germany), andthe renewal of growth in 1968 evidentlydid not require an acceleration in plantand equipment expenditures, given theamount of unused capacity.

Financing increased inventories tookonly 2 percent of adjusted uses of fundsin 1967, down sharply from the 1965share, but jumped to 8 percent in 1968.

A substantial part of the increase ininventories in 1968 took place inEurope, and particularly in the UnitedKingdom, with a shift from liquidationof inventories in 1967 to a sizable build-up in 1968. Current receivables showeda similar pattern, with a particularlynoticeable shift again in the UnitedKingdom.

While the shares of funds used for in-ventories and current receivables moverather erratically, the reduction of bothin 1967 and their recovery in 1968 mayhave been associated with two par-ticular developments. The first is thatbusiness conditions in Europe were rela-tively slow in 1967, which would reducethe need for increases in inventoriesand receivables. The second factor wasprobably anticipations of the devalua-tion of sterling (which occurred in late1967) and the accompanying leads andlags in trade payments.

Funds obtained abroad by affiliatesin the United Kingdom showed a sharpdrop in 1967 as a percent of adjustedsources, and then recovered in 1968.The swing was concentrated in short-term liabilities to nonbanks, a good partof which is trade credits (table 3). Tothe extent that such credits were de-nominated in dollars, British affiliateswould have had an incentive to reduce

such liabilities in order to avoid laterrepayment that would be more expen-sive in terms of sterling; for the samereason, foreigners would not havewished to extend credits denominatedin sterling. Such a reduction in borrow-ing by British affiliates may have re-quired a reduction in their inventoriesand current receivables, unless othersources of funds were available. Domes-tic sources in the United Kingdom wereparticularly difficult to tap since lending

(in sterling) by British banks wasrestricted by a credit squeeze.

Although the amount of funds usedfor other assets increased in 1968, thepercentage share of these items of ad-justed uses remained unchanged at 14percent. No details are collected on theitems in this category, which alsocontains unidentified balancing items.

Sources

Adjusted sources rose $1.6 billion in

1968, of which internally generatedfunds—retained earnings and deprecia-tion and depletion allowances—con-tributed about $1.0 billion. However, inboth 1967 and 1968, foreign affiliatesprovided for about half of their financ-ing needs (exclusive of income paid out)from these internally generated funds.This had been the case since 1963,except for 1965 when the proportiontemporarily declined to 40 percent.Retained earnings rose as a proportion

Direct Investment Program which be-came mandatory in 1968. In fact, thesefigures probably understate the impactof the program since "funds from theUnited States" include funds borrowedabroad by U.S. parent companieswhich are then invested in the foreignaffiliates. Under the program, suchborrowing offsets the outflow from theUnited States and thus helps thebalance of payments.

"Funds obtained abroad" rose almost$1.0 billion in 1968 and accounted for 31percent of adjusted sources. This was ahigher proportion than in 1967 (26 per-cent), but still below the 1965 figure (34percent). Some of the shift in 1968 mayhave been associated with the directinvestment program becoming manda-tory. However, there Avas little changein 1968 in the volume of such flows inthe EEC countries where the programwas most stringent. The shifts werelargest in Latin America (where theprogram was least stringent) and inEurope other than the EEC. Thisincludes the United Kingdom—wherethe shift was most likely associatedwith a reversal of the flows in 1967 thathad been generated by anticipations ofthe devaluation of sterling. The in-creases in inventories and currentreceivables associated with the re-covery in business conditions mentionedearlier may have also been a factorincreasing the need for borrowing fromabroad.

Concepts

Definitional differences between thebalance of payments and the sourcesand uses statistics are discussed below.There are also differences due to anumber of accounting and statisticalproblems, including foreign exchangelosses, different effective exchange ratesused to convert the accounts to U.S.dollars, and different accountingperiods.

Data on net income, income paidout, and retained income in the sourcesand uses statement include not onlythe U.S. parents' share but also theshare of foreign owners. Net income isreported after depreciation and deple-tion charges. The balance of paymentsstatistics, on the other hand, takeaccount only of the income paid out

(or retained earnings as used in calcu-lating the investment position) thatrepresents the U.S. share in the owner-ship of the foreign enterprise and arereported after depreciation but beforedepletion charges.

The data classified under "fundsfrom United States" for sources includethe financing of foreign affiliates bytheir U.S. parent companies and sales

of new securities to the public, fundsfor the establishment of a new enter-prise by a parent, funds from other U.S.residents—such as lending by U.S. fi-nancial institutions (both private andgovernment)—and the extension ofcredit by U.S. suppliers. The lattertwo items are not included in directinvestment capital outflows (althoughthey are included, along with transac-

tions with nonaffiliated foreigners, else-where in the balance of payments). Onthe other hand, a significant part ofdirect investment net capital flows, asreported for balance of payments pur-poses, is not included in the sources offunds of affiliates. In particular, ex-penditures by parent companies for theacquisition of foreign business firms orminority interests are excluded because

they go not to the affiliates but ratherto stockholders of the affiliates. Thus,they do not figure in the financial flowsentering an analysis of sources and usesof funds of the affiliates themselves.Also, earnings left abroad by branches ofU.S. companies are recorded in thebalance of payments as income (paidout) and as direct investment capitaloutflows; in sources and uses data theyare treated simply as retained earnings.

"Funds obtained abroad" includefunds obtained by foreign affiliatesfrom other foreign affiliates of the U.S.reporter. Also included, on a net basis,are funds obtained from foreign fi-nancial institutions, trade credits fromforeigners, sales or purchases of cap-ital stock of the foreign affiliate byforeigners, and other increases in li-abilities to foreigners. The sourcescategory "other sources and adjust-ments" includes sales of fixed assets,changes in certain reserve accounts, un-identifiable sources, and adjustmentsfor unrealized gains or losses due toexchange rate variations which the re-porter was unable to exclude from theother individual sources categories.

Plant and equipment expendituresrepresent gross outlays for fixed capital.Expenditures include acquisitions ofexisting fixed assets by affiliates, butexclude the sale of fixed assets (whichis reported in sources as "other sourcesand adjustments").

The use of funds for "inventories"refers to the net increase or decreasein book value of warehouse and factorystocks and in materials in process otherthan those classified as fixed assets bythe icporter. The increase in "currentreceivables" is the net change in re-ceivables due from foreign customers.(To the extent possible, receivablesfrom iionaffiliated customers in theUnited States are netted against theaffiliates' payables in "funds from theUnited States" under sources.) The netchange in "other assets" includes allother current assets, other non-fixedassets, and unspecified transactions.

Comparison with other data

In order to test whether these dataon affiliates' sources and uses of fundsmaintain a reasonable relationship toother information on direct investment

SUEVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS

generated by OBE, an attempt wasmade, as far as possible, to reconcilethe two sets of data. The results areshown in table 4. While there are dis-tinct definitional differences that cannotbe adjusted for, the comparison shouldgive an indication of the extent to whichthe sample sources and uses datamaintains a consistent relationship tothe total flows reported in the balanceof payments statistics.

The initial comparison is betweendirect investment capital flows (line 33of table 1 in the balance of paymentsaccounts) and the funds reported ascoming from the United States in thesources and uses of funds statistics.The direct investment figures are ad-justed to exclude flows related to place-ment and amortization of foreign affili-ates' securities held by U.S. residentsother than the parent firms, and allliquidations of investments and acqui-sitions of existing foreign enterprises.

Funds from the United States re-ported as a source in the sources anduses are adjusted to exclude the portionof funds coming from the United Statesfrom other than parent companies.

Comparison of the two sets of dataon capital flows reveals that the balanceof payments data show consistentlyhigher outflows, partly reflecting much

19

more complete coverage of the balanceof payments reports (950 reportingparents compared with 450 parents).The balance of payments figures alsoinclude reinvested earnings in branches,while "funds from the United States"do not. The difference in dollar amountsfor the three industries combined is inthe range of $600 million to $750 milliona year, with the exception of 1967 whenthe difference was larger. Availableinformation gives no clear explanationof the 1967 figures. When 1966 and 1969data are available, more detailed recon-ciliations will be possible.

The earnings of foreign affiliates asderived from the balance of paymentsreports (column 3) represent the U.S.share of earnings for all U.S. foreigndirect investments in the selectedindustries. These are compared to totalearnings, both U.S. and foreign, givenby the sample of affiliates reportingsources and uses information (column4). While the differences in coverageand definition make any comparison ofmagnitudes meaningless, the rathersteady ratios between the different setsof data, even at the industry level,indicate that at the very least there is areasonable degree of consistency betweenbalance of payments data and thereports on sources and uses of funds.

Histor-ical data back through 1946 (annually) and 1952 (quarterly)were published in the November 1969 SURVEY.

foreigners, net of corresponding U.S. remittances to foreigners; and (2) these figures excludeand the gross corporate product figures include, the internal funds of corporations whosemajor activity is farming.
