5o-s/:y c,- e VP' United States Foreign Trade U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE John T. Connor, Secretary fin H. Shaw, Asst. Secy., Economic Affairs -L R-,0/ A. Ross Eckte, Director SUMMARY REPORT FT 930-E EXPORT TRADE BY COMM< The Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce, reported today that the increase in U.S. exports of domestic merchandise unadjusted for seasonal change,1 2 from $2,456.9 million in September to $2,655.6 million in October was largely due to the increase in the level of exports of machinery 1See the October 1966 issue of Report FT 900-E for seasonally adjusted figures on total domestic and foreign exports, exclud- ing Military Assistance Program--Grant-Aid shipments. Seasonally adjusted data are not available for domestic exports only or on a c u"'.,viit. basis. ,'Yo-.: -; a1-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. and transport equipment; crude materials, inedible, except fuels; manufactured goods classified chiefly by material; and beverages and tobacco. The 6 remaining commodity sections showed slight decreases. Commodities or groups of commodities showing increases from September to October included power generating machinery; agricultural machinery and parts; office machinery and computers; construction, excavating and mining machinery; passenger cars; aircraft and parts; soybeans; wheat and wheat flour; iron and steel mill products; and unmanufactured tobacco. Among com- modities showing decreases for the period were wood pulp, cotton, corn, barley, and soybean oil. EXPLANATION OF STATISTICS COVERAGE: Export statistics include government as well as 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.
