Seasonally Adjusted
The Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce, an-
nounced today that during September 1980, exports on a f.a.s
(free alongside ship) U.S. port of exportation value
basis, excluding Department of Defense (DOD) Military
Assistance Program Grant-Aid shipments, amounted to
$18,701.0 million and that general imports on an f.a.s.
foreign port of exportation value basis, amounted to
$19,465.0 million.1 2 3
Based on the above export and import figures, the September
merchandise trade balance was in deficit by $764.0
million.1 2 3

During the first 9 months of 1980 (January-September), ex-
ports were at an annual rate of $218,376 million, a level
about 20 percent higher than the calendar year 1979 total
of $181,637 million. Imports for the January-September 1980
period were at an annual rate of $240,603 million, an in-
crease of about 17 percent over the calendar year 1979
total of $206,327 million.
For the 4-month period, June-September 1980, exports aver-
aged $18,630.3 million per month, about 4 percent higher
than the $17,978.4 million average reported for the pre-
ceding 4-month period, February-May 1980. Imports on
an f.a.s. value basis, averaged $19,397.3 million per
month for the current 4-month period, a level about 5 per-
cent below the $20,481.4 million average reported

UNITED STATES FOREIGN TRADE









EXPLANATION OF STATISTICS


Coverage

The U.S. foreign trade statistics include, in general, both
government and nongovernment shipments of merchandise
and reflect the physical movement of foreign trade shipments
into and out of the U.S. Customs territory (includes the 50
States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico), with certain
exceptions. The statistics exclude data on shipments between
the United States, Puerto Rico, and U.S. possessions, between
U.S. possessions and foreign countries, shipments to U.S. Armed
Forces and diplomatic missions abroad for their own use and
American goods returned to the United States by its Armed
Forces, intransit shipments, etc. (See paragraph below regarding
sources of further information.)
Users of the statistics are advised that cumulations of data
over at least 4-month periods are desirable to identify under-
lying trends. Month-to-month changes in imports, exports, and
similar series often reflect primarily irregular movements,
differences in monthly carryover, etc.

Valuation of Imports

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 in-
cludes all freight, insurance, and other charges (excluding U.S.
import duties) incurred in bringing 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 deriving 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.


F.a.s. Import Value.-The f.a.s. (free alongside ship) value
represents the transaction value of imports at the foreign p
of exportation. It is based on the purchase price, i.e., the actu
transaction value and generally includes all charges incurred i
placing the merchandise alongside the carrier at the port
exportation in the country of exportation.


Valuation of Exports

F.a.s. Export Value.-The value reported in the export statistic
generally is equivalent to an f.a.s. (free alongside ship) val
at the U.S. port of export, based on the transaction prim,
including inland freight, insurance and other charges incurred
in placing the merchandise alongside the carrier at the U.S|.
port of exportation.

'Export and import statistical series are adjusted for seasonal and working day valiation but not for changes in price level. Reflecting a new methodology. introduced with
i statistics for January 1979, the adjusted monthly export and .mport totals for 1979 and 1980 presented in th.s report are derived by adding the seasonally adjusted components
i (i.e. SITC sections). The factors used to adjust the 1979 1980 component series represent the combination of seasonal adjustment factors developed from monthly data through
1979 and the appropriate working-day factors Prior to January 1979, monthly totals were adjusted independently of the components.
'Cumulations of data over at least 4-month periods are desirable to identify underijing trends. Month .to-nonth changes in exports. imports, and similar ser.ei often reflect
primarily irregular movements differences in monthly carryover. etc Recent month to montn percent changes in the overall seasonally adjusted export and import series are pre-
sented ;n the following table with average percent month .to-month rise and decline over longer periods shown foi comparison The averages exclude percentage changes for (1)
