Revisions of the Personal Income and Outlays Estimates
Personal income, personal outlays, DPI, and personal saving are revised, beginning with January 2007,
to reflect the results of the annual revision of the national income and products accounts (NIPAs)
released last week. Annual revisions, which are usually released in July, incorporate source data
that are more complete, more detailed, and otherwise more reliable than those previously published.
Revised annual estimates of personal income and outlays for 2007-2009, are shown in table 12. Revised
and previously published monthly estimates of personal income, DPI, PCE, personal saving as a
percentage of DPI, real DPI, and real PCE are shown in table 13; revised and previously published
annual and quarterly estimates are shown in table 14.
Personal income was revised up for all 3 years: $18.2 billion, or 0.2 percent, for 2007; $152.3 billion,
or 1.2 percent, for 2008; and $155.9 billion, or 1.3 percent, for 2009. For 2007, upward revisions to
personal dividend income and to wages and salaries were partly offset by a downward revision to supplements
to wages and salaries. For 2008, upward revisions to personal dividend income, to wages and salaries, to
rental income of persons, and to supplements to wages and salaries were partly offset by a downward revision
to nonfarm proprietors income. For 2009, upward revisions to personal dividend income, to supplements
to wages and salaries, and to government social benefits to persons were partly offset by downward revisions
to nonfarm proprietors income and to personal interest income.
Disposable personal income (DPI) was revised up for all 3 years: $20.5 billion, or 0.2 percent, for
2007; $146.5 billion, or 1.4 percent, for 2008; and $117.6 billion, or 1.1 percent, for 2009. Personal
current taxes was revised down $2.2 billion for 2007, was revised up $5.8 billion for 2008, and was revised
up $38.3 billion for 2009. The percent change from the preceding year in real DPI was revised up
from 2.2 percent to 2.3 percent for 2007, was revised up from 0.5 percent to 1.7 percent for 2008,
and was revised down from 0.8 percent to 0.6 percent for 2009.
Personal outlays was revised down for all 3 years: $15.4 billion for 2007, $15.0 billion for 2008, and
$79.1 billion for 2009. For all 3 years, downward revisions to PCE more than accounted for the revision
to personal outlays.
The personal saving rate (personal saving as a percentage of DPI) was revised up for all 3 years: from
1.7 percent to 2.1 percent for 2007, from 2.7 percent to 4.1 percent for 2008, and from 4.2 percent
to 5.9 percent for 2009.
NOTE. -- BEA acknowledges the special efforts by the Bureau of Labor Statistics with the assistance
of 16 state employment offices in providing preliminary data for the first quarter of 2010 from the
quarterly census of employment and wages. Wage and salary data from the state employment offices of
California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Massachusetts,
Missouri, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas were provided.
These data should greatly improve the estimates of wages and salaries.
