EXPLANATION OF STATISTICS IMPORT STATISTICS Coverage The U.S. import statistics reflect both government and nongovernment imports of merchandise from foreign countries into the U.S. Customs territory, which includes the 50 States. the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. The U.S. import statistics exclude imports into the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa. and other U.S. possessions; and shipments between the United States and Puerto Rico, between the United States and U.S. possessions, and between any of these outlying areas. (Data on U.S. trade with Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands of the United States are published separately in Report FT 800. Additional data on such trade and on imports into the Virgin Islands from foreign countries are presented in reference tabulations.) Data on imports of petroleum and selected petroleum products, including shipments into the Virgin Islands from foreign countries, are included in this report effective with the January 1976 statistics (previously shown in former Report FT 900-Supplement) The Li S. import statistics also exclude American goods re- turned to the United States by its Armed Forces. intransit ship- ments through the United States when documented as such with Customs, temporary shipments; transactions not con- sidered to be of statistical significance. such as shipments of personal and household effects; low-valued nondutiable im- ports by mail: and issued monetary coins of all component metals. Inclusion of Gold in the Statistics Effective with the statistics for Januars 1078, imports of nonmonetar> gold |in such forms as ore. scrap and base bullion, nonmoneitar refined bullion. etc.) which were previously, excluded, are now included in the statistics Imports of silver in these forms have been included since January 1960 Additional information rewarding thle inclusion of gold in the t178 statistics appears in the Januar3 197 issues of Report FT 99U and FT 135. General Imports/Imports For Consumption Thile statistics on U.S. imports are presented in terms of both "General Imports" and "Imports for Consumption General imports are a combination of entries for immediate con- sumption and entries into Customs bonded warehouses, and thus generally reflect total arrivals of merchandise. Imports for consumption are a combination of entries lor immediate consumption and withdrawals from warehouses for con- sumption. and thus generallN reflect the totil of the com. modities entered into U.S. consumption channels. Source Of Import Information The official U.S. import statistics are compiled b\ the Bureau of the Census from copies of the import entrr and warehouse withdrawal forms which importers are required b\ law' to file with Customs officials. The information as to country of origin, net quantity, value, and commodity classification is verified by Customs officials on entries filed for transactions valued over $250. which are ordinarily, subject to examination for Customs appraisement purposes. The statistical copy of the entry is corrected if it does not accurately reflect the information called for by the statistical requirements. Import Valuation F.a.s. Import Value. -The f.a.s. (free alongside ship) value represents the transaction value of imports at the foreign port of exportation. It is based on the purchase price, i.e.. the actual transaction salue and generally includes all charges incurred in placing the merchandise alongside the carrier at the port of exportation in the country of exportation. C.i.f. Import Value.-The c.i.f. (cost, insurance, and freight) value represents the value of imports at the first port of entry in the United States. It is based on the purchase price and includes all freight, insurance, and other charges (excluding U.S. import duties) incurred in banging the merchandise from the country of exportation and generally placing it alongside the carrier at the first port of entry in the United States. If the merchandise was acquired in a transaction between related parties, the purchase price used in derming the c.i.f. value is based on an arm's-length equivalent transaction price, i.e., a price which would exist between unrelated buyers and sellers. Import Commodity Information Import data are initially reported in terms of the commodity classifications in the Tariff Schedules of the United States An- notated (TSUSA). which is an official publication of the U.S. International Trade Commission, embracing the legal text of the Tariff Schedules of the United States together with statis- tical annotations. The TSUSA data are rearranged and presented in this report in terms of totals for the I-digit commodity sections in Schedule A, Statistical Classification of Commodities Imported Into the United States, which is based upon the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC), Revision 2, effective with the statistics for January 1978. Prior to January 1978, Schedule A was based upon the former SITC, Revised. Date of Importation and Import Monthly Carryover It is the objective of the compiling procedures to include shipments, insofar as practicable in the slatstlics for the actual nionih of importation (or tihe month of withdrawal in the case of warehouse withdrawals for consumption) Prior to 1978.the ddie of Customis official acceptance of the import entry documents was used to determine thile statistical month in which the shipments were included Effect ve with the January 1978 statistics, the date of importation as reported on the import entries is being used to determine the statistical month. However, since under the Customs "immediate-delivery" pro- ,edures importer, ma, file the import entr\ up to 10 workdays after the dJle uf release of thile merchandise some documents for merchandise imported during the last few days of a given month man not be received in time for inclusion in the statistics for Ihat month Ns a result. there is a carrover. estimated at about 15 percent from ihe actual monih of importation to a subsequent month In addition, processing problems te g late filing of documents, rejection of a shipment b\ the computer because the data fail to meet certain edit criteria established to protect the accuracy of Ihe stadisiiLs, etc I contribute to an additional carryover of aboul 5 percent (in terms of %aluej of shipments from the reported month of imporldiion (or with- drawal from warehouse) 10 d subsequent month, usudll. the succeeding month. These limrruations should be borne in mind when making month-to-month comparisons. Cumulations of data over at least 4-month periods are desir- able to identify underlying trends. Month-to-month changes in imports, exports, and similar series often reflect primarily irregular movements, e.g., exogenous events such as strikes, differences in monthly carryover, etc. Estimated Data for Imports Valued Under $251 The overall import and Schedule A Section 9 totals include sample estimates for shipments valued under $251. Therefore, they are subject to sampling error. estimated at less than one-tenth of one percent for the unadjusted overall total and about one percent for the unadjusted Schedule A Section 9 total. This means that we can have about 67 percent confidence that the published unadjusted overall totals and the unadjusted Schedule A Section 9 totals differ by less than one-tenth of a percent and one percent, respectively. from the totals that would have resulted from a complete tabulation. The statistics on imports of petroleum and petroleum products included in this report reflect fully compiled data and, therefore, are not subject to sampling error. EXPORT STATISTICS Coverage The export statistics reflect, in general, both government and nongovernment exports of domestic and foreign merchandise from the U.S. Customs territory (includes the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico) to foreign countries, whether the exportation involves a commercial transaction or not. The statistics, therefore, include Department of Defense Military Assistance Program Grant-Aid shipments, shipments for economic assistance under the Foreign Assistance Act and shipments of agricultural commodities under P.L. 480 (The Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954, as amended) and related laws. The following are excluded from the statistics: Shipments to U.S. Armed Forces and diplomatic missions abroad for their own use, shipments between the United States and Puerto Rico, between the United States and its possessions (including the Virgin Islands), and between these outlying areas: exports from U.S. possessions; intransit ship- ments through the Unmted States; transactions not considered to be of statistical importance, such as personal and household effects; temporary exports; low-valued or non-commercial exports by mail; and issued monetary coins of all component metals. Inclusion of Gold in the Statistics. As indicated above for imports, effective with the statistics for January 1978, exports of nonmonetary gold (in such forms as ore, scrap and base bullon, nonmonetary refined bullion, etc.) which were previously excluded, are included in the statistics Exports of silver in these forms have been included since January 1969. Additional information regarding the inclusion of gold in the 1978 statistics appears in the January 1978 issues of Report FT 990 and FT 410. Definition of Exports of Domestic and Foreign Merchandise Exports of domestic merchandise include commodities which are grown, produced, or manufactured in the UnitedStates, and commodities of foreign origin which have been changed in the United States from the form in which they were imported, or which have been enhanced in value by further manufacture in the United States. Exports of foreign merchandise consist of commodities of foreign origin which have entered the United States as imports and which, at the time of exportation, are in substantially the same condition as when imported. Source of Export Information The official U.S. export statistics are compiled by the Bureau of the Census primarily from copies of Shipper's Export Declarations which are required to be filed with Customs officials, except for Department of Defense Military Assistance Program Grant-Aid shipments which are reported directly to the Bureau of the Census by the Department of Defense and shipments by qualified exporters who have been authorized to submit data in the form of magnetic tape, punched cards, or monthly Shipper's Summary Export Declarations directly to the Bureau of the Census. Export Valuation F.a.s. Export Value. -The value reported in the export statistics generally is equivalent to a f.a.s. (free alongside ship) value at the U.S. port of export, based on the transaction price, including inland freight, insurance and other charges incurred in placing the merchandise alongside the carrier at the U.S. port of exportation. Export Commodity Information Beginning January 1978, export commodity information is collected in terms of the commodity classifications in the 1978 edition of Schedule B, Statistical Classification of Do- mestic and Foreign Commodities Exported from the United States, which is based on the framework of the classification system in the Tariff Schedules of the United States (TSUS). In this report, the Schedule B data are rearranged and presented in terms of totals for the 1-digit commodity sectionsin Schedule E, which is based upon the Standard International Trade Classi- fication (SITC). Revision 2, effective with the statistics for January 1978. Prior to January 1978, the export classifications in Schedule B were based upon the organizational framework of the former SITC, Revised. Export Monthly Carryover It is the objective of the compiling procedures to include shipments, insofar as practicable, in the statistics for the actual month of exportation. For purposes of the statistics, the month of exportation is generally based on the date when the shipment leaves the United States. (For vessel or air shipments it is the date when the carrier departs or is cleared from the port of export.) However, as indicated above for imports, because of 4 processing problems (e.g., late receipt of a document for an end-of-month shipment, rejection of a shipment by the com- puter because the data fail to meet certain edit criteria established to protect the accuracy of the statistics, etc.). there is an overall average carryover of about 2 to 3 percent (in terms of value) of the shipments from the actual month of export. tion to a subsequent month, usually the succeeding month These limitations should be borne in mind when making month-to-month comparisons. Cumulations of data over at least 4-month periods are desirable to identify underlying trends. Month-to-month changes in imports, exports, and similar series often reflect primarily irregular movements, differences in monthly carryover, etc. Estimated Data for Export Shipments Effective with the March 1979 statistics, the overall export and Schedule E section and division totals include sample esti mates for shipments valued $501 -$1,999 to Canada and for ship- ments valued $501-$999 to countries other than Canada. Data for shipments valued $500 and under to all countries are also estimated, based on established percentages of individual country totals, and included in the Schedule E Section 9 totals regardless of the commodity exported. It is estimated that the unadjusted overall total is subject to a sampling error of less than one-tenth of one percent, and the unadjusted Schedule E section or division totals are subject to sampling errors of about one percent. In addition, the Schedule E Section 9 total is sub- ject to possible error in the estimated data for shipments valued $500 and under; and the overall total, and the individual totals for sections other than Section 9, to a more limited extent. Such $500 and under shipments represent about 1 percent of the total value of exports, and about 30 percent of the Schedule E Section 9 total. Prior to the March 1979 statistics, the overall export and Schedule E section and division totals include sample estimates for shipments valued $251-$1,999 to Canad:i and for shipments valued $251-$999 to countries oilier than Canada. SOURCES OF ERROR IN THE STATISTICS Monthly import and export figures are subject to the possibility of errors which may arise from sources other than sampling errors, discussed above. Among these are errors in the reporting and/or processing of information as to commodity classification, value and other statistical factors, month of inclusion (see paragraphs on import and export carryover. above), and the undercounting of exports to Canada due to the non-receipt of Shipper's Export Declarations. For 178.. the undercounting is estimated to be about $2 billion dollars. In the case of imports the information as to value and commodity classification (as well as country of origin and net quantity) is verified by Customs officials on entries filed for transactions valued over $250 which are ordinarily subject to examination for Customs appraisement purposes, thus con. siderably reducing the possibility of error. In addition, the procedures used to compile both the import and export sta- tistics include clerical and computer processing checks designed to protect the accuracy of the statistics to the fullest practicable extent. Adjustment for Seasonal and Working-Day Variation Monthly totals for exports and imports and major com- modity components I Schedule E and Schedule A section totals) are shown adjusted for seasonal/working-day variation. Effec- Inve with the release of the January 1979 statistics, the seasonally adjusted export and import totals represent the sum of com- modity components adjusted for seasonal and working-day variation. Previously, the monihl0 totals for exports and im- ports were adjusted independently of the components. The procedure of aggregating seasonally adjusted commodity com- ponents more accurately reflects the seasonal movements within the totals Under this procedure, only those section totals that show identifiable seasonal patter:ts are seasonally adjusted. MERCHANDISE TRADE BALANCES Two trade balances are presented in this report" I ) The balance between exports based on f.a.s. values and imports based on f.a.s. values. 2) The balance between exports based on l.a.s. values and imports based on c.i.f. values with adjustments for imports from affiliated sellers abroad to reflect arms-length equivalent prices. Both balances are useful for certain purposes. The first balance corresponds to a measurement of the international payments or credit flows resulting from merchandise trade between the U.S. and foreign countries. The second balance is based on concepts similar to those used by most foreign countries, and therefore provides a reference for comparison with the trade balances published by those countries. REVISIONS TO THE STATISTICS Under the revision policy adopted effective with the 197' statistics, revisions to the monthly statistics for the current year will be issued once a ear. i e., with the reports for June of the following year. Thus. revisions to 1979 statistics will be issued onlk in June 1980.
