EXPORT TRADE BY COMMODITY


The Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce,
reported today that the decline in U.S. exports of domestic
1 2
merchandise unadjusted for seasonal change from $2,655.6
million in October to $2,593.5 million in November, reflected
decreases in the value of exports of 4 of the individual
commodity sections not completely offset by increases in
exports of the 6 remaining sections.




1See the November 1966 issue of Report FT 900-S for season-
ally adjusted figures on total domestic and foreign exports,
excluding Military Assistance Program--Grant-Aid shipments.
Seasonally adjusted data are not available for total exports
including Military Assistance Program--Grant-Aid shipments or
by country of destination.
2Month-to-month changes in exports and similar series often
reflect primarily irregular movements. Cumulations of data
over 3 or 4 month periods are desirable to identify underlying
trends.


The more notable decreases were registered by machinery
and transport equipment; manufactured goods classified
chiefly by material; and mineral fuels, lubricants, and
related materials. Sections showing sizable increases were
inedible crude materials, except fuels; and animal and
vegetable oils and fats.

Commodities or groups of commodities showing decreases
from October to November included aircraft and parts; office
machinery and computers; power generating machinery
(including engines); agricultural machinery and parts and
tractors; metalworking machinery (including metalworking
machine tools); wheat; copper and alloys; metal ores
concentrates and scrap; and coal. Among commodities showing
increases during the period were soybean oil; cotton; corn;
hides and skins; and chemical elements and compounds.


EXPLANATION OF STATISTICS


COVERAGE: Export statistics include government as wells nongovernment shipments
to foreign countries. The export statistics, therefore, include Department of Defense
Military Assistance Program-Grant-Aid shipments (for which separate figures are
shown in the tables of this report), Mutual Security Program economic assistance
shipments, and shipments of agricultural commodities under P.L. 480 (The Trade
Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as amended) and related laws. (The sepa-
rate information which is available on exports under P.L. 480 and related laws may be
obtained from the Economic Research Service and the Foreign Agricultural Service of
the Department of Agriculture.) Shipments to U.S. armed forces and diplomatic missions
abroad for their own use are excluded from the export statistics. U.S. trade with Puerto
Rico and U.S. possessions is not included in this report, but the export trade of Puerto
Rico with foreign countries is included as a part of the U.S. export trade. Merchandise
shipped in transit through the United States between foreign countries, not entered as
imports, is not included in the export statistics.

VALUATION: The valuation definition used in the export statistics is the value at
the seaport, border point, or airport of exportation. It is based on the selling price (or
cost if .ot sold) and includes inland freight, insurance, and other charges to the port
of exportation. Transportation and other costs beyond the United States port of expor-
tation are excluded. None of the values have been adjusted for changes in price level.


RELIABILITY: The statistics presented in this report are based partly on sample
data and therefore are subject to sampling variation that may cause them to differ
somewhat from the results which would have been obtained from processing all export
documents. For the figures shown in this report the sampling variability can be ignored
since the probable variability due to sampling is either less than $50,000 (the largest
variation from rounding of figures) or less than a trivial percentage of the individual
totals shown. In addition to the effects of sampling variation, the data in this report
are subject to errors from such sources as the carry-over of data from month to month,
errors in reporting or processing, the estimation of shipments valued under $100 (esti-
mated data for such shipments are included in the over-all export total and in the totals
for"Commodities and transactions not classified according to kind" and "Low-value"
shipments, but excluded from other totals), and the omission of low-value parcel post
shipments. Although the effect of such errors on the rounded totals in this report is
probably small, the possibility of inaccuracy should be taken into account, particularly
in using figures of relatively small magnitude.

Further information regarding coverage, valuation, compilation procedures and preci-
sion of export data is contained in the foreword of Reports FT 410 and FT 420. For
complete statement, see foreword in Foreign Commerce and Navigation of the United
States.
